Blood pressure directed booster trainings improve intensive care unit provider retention of excellent cardiopulmonary resuscitation skills.
The authors incorporated arterial blood pressure (ABP) tracings into Booster Trainings, hypothesizing that ABP-directed CPR Booster Trainings would improve intensive care unit (ICU) provider 3-month retention of excellent CPR skills without need for interval retraining. They found that the ABP-directed CPR booster trainings improved ICU provider 3-month retention of excellent CPR skills without the need for interval retraining.

How do residents spend their time in the intensive care unit?
The researchers described the work of residents and the distribution of their time in 6 intensive care units (ICUs) of 2 medical centers (MCs). The found that residents spent most time performing direct patient care and care coordination activities. The distribution of activities, which varied across MCs and across ICUs, highlights the need to consider the local context on residents' work in ICUs.
