the best CPR is never needing CPR! teams continue to adapt proven cardiac arrest prevention (CAP) processes and build them into daily workflow see arrest rate stays low! jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…

Looks like great implementation and evolution of @pc4quality CAP QI bundle!! Congrats!! @bubblesdadee @MGaies #noCPRisbetterthangoodCPR

Fantastic impact of an important QI study. Well done @dr_mark_russell @AlisonSJones5 @sueburly and team!! #pedsicu 👏👏

Watch out for this future CICU superstar! Nicole Stegmeier presenting her NEPHRON work at WFPICCS. Early diuresis after neonatal cardiac surgery doesn't cause AKI and may improve outcomes. @pc4quality @WFPICCS @CincyKidsHeart @childrenswi

after controlling for high-risk norwood factors, most post-op aki is transient, but if persistent on pod3, aki is independently associated with morbidity and mortality - especially when concurrent fluid accumulation @pc4quality @CincyKidsHeart @CincyChildrens

Cardiac surgery-associated-AKI is common but its impact on clinical outcomes is variable. Read this Original Article on durational sub-phenotyping of CS-AKI w/cumulative fluid balance & outcomes among neonates undergoing the Norwood procedure. #NEPHRON

@KatieBrandewie3 says we need to weigh our neonatal cardiac surgical patients to measure clinically relevant postoperative fluid overload. @CincyKidsHeart @pc4quality @pedscicu link.springer.com/article/10…

Cincinnati Children's CICU utilizes a CAP protocol for after OHS. It was like a dichotomy of if this then do this and no need to wait for orders. I think it helped my 12 day old her first night after OHS for TOF and Pulmonary Atresia.

@TiaTiaraymond showing that cardiac arrest prevention using the CAP bundle is SUSTAINABLE!!! #pcics22 @pc4quality @MGaies @bubblesdadee @DrKlugs
challenge the dogma, reduce patient harm. routine infection rule-outs in the #PICU and peds #cicu can be shortened to 24 hours! @CincyKidsHeart @CincyChildrens doi.org/10.1017/ice.2022.265

Pediatric cardiac intensive care units at 15 @pc4quality hospitals used a cardiac arrest (CA) prevention bundle and saw a 30% relative reduction in adjusted CA rate. Control hospitals showed no change. ja.ma/3SPaKA7 @bubblesdadee @MGaies #PedsCards #PedsCICU

This is James of #NKY. When he was 2 weeks, he was saved from cardiac arrest @CincyChildrens. The same method that saved him caused a 30% drop in these attacks among babies a-x the country.
Here's his story & how this happened: bit.ly/3SCPHRV via @Enquirer

We're proud to share research outcomes from the @pc4quality, which is part of @CardiacUnited, funded by The Children’s Heart Foundation. “This project was able to prevent CPR in almost 200 high-risk children during CAP implementation at 15 hospitals." bit.ly/3Ilt4N3
