eStablish and Formalize Expert Criteria for Avoidable Resuscitation Review (SAFECARR) electronic Delphi: development of a consensus framework for classifying and reviewing cardiac arrests within the PICU.
The authors sought to develop a consensus framework to guide the process of classifying and reviewing pediatric in-hospital cardiac arrest in the PICU. A multidisciplinary group of pediatric resuscitation experts generated a consensus-based framework to classify and review pediatric in-hospital cardiac arrest in the PICU. The authors recommended that future work focus on the application of this framework and further validation of these definitions and contributing factors for in-hospital cardiac arrest both within and outside the PICU.

Hemodynamic impact of oxygen desaturation during tracheal intubation among critically ill children with cyanotic and noncyanotic heart disease.
The objective of this study was to determine a level of oxygen desaturation associated with increased risk of tracheal intubation events in children in a pediatric or cardiac ICU with cyanotic and noncyanotic heart disease. Oxygen desaturation was measured by a fall in pulse oximetry from baseline after pre-oxygenation. The primary outcome was occurrence of hemodynamic tracheal intubation associated events defined as cardiac arrest, hypotension, or dysrhythmia. Results indicate that oxygen desaturation by 30% or more is associated with increased odds for adverse hemodynamic events, after adjusting for confounders. Oxygen desaturation was observed more often in children with cyanotic than those with noncyanotic heart disease, but hemodynamic tracheal intubation associated event rates were similar.
