Goal to change culture
🔸initial cost was multiprofessional investment
🔸"PICU Up" became the common name
🔸Followed AHRQ QI model

#SCCM2022 #PedsICU
2/
🔸education for every PICU team member
🔸almost every pt can at least benefit from level 1
🔸qual study of staff a few years in showed benefit for staff as well as pts
🔸created culture of mobility
🔸very low incidence of AE with early mobility
#SCCM2022 #PedsICU

Only clinical factor associated with safety event was #delirium
🔸PICU UP trial underway to measure outcomes
🔸#therapeuticcuddles a goal for the youngest
🔸it's never too early
🔸interprofessional collaboration is key

🔸#ABCDEbundle can help reduce the incidence and severity of #PICSp

#SCCM2022 #PedsICU
7/
Focus today on Iatrogenic Withdrawal Syndrome
🔸S&S include autonomic & CNS & GI dysfx
🔸prevalence 5-87%
🔸assessment and monitoring with validated tools critical
🔸WAT-1 and SOS most often used
🔸risk factors below

#SCCM2022 #PedsICU
8/
🔸unclear if alpha agonist use more efficacious than benzo use reduction to avoid IWS
🔸alpha agonists have their own IWS
🔸drug replacement same receptor activity mitigates S&S

#SCCM2022 #PedsICU
9/
IWS prevention is the holy grail
🔸ABCDEF bundle to reduce sedation exposure
🔸goal directed sedation protocols
🔸daily sedation interruption
🔸protocolized weaning using screening tools, incl tx for breakthrough IWS

#SCCM2022 #PedsICU
10/
Can also consider
🔸protocolized drug rotation
🔸be sure to adequately treat pain
🔸adapt to your patient population

Last session: Systematic bias in critical care

Dr Chiedozie Udeh: Systemic sources of racial disparities in the ICU

Racism’s history extends to the antebellum, incl Thomas Jefferson. It provided psychological permission for the treatment of slaves.

#SCCM2024

Udeh: physicians also culpable

Implicit bias: segregation, under funded schools

Black/minorities more likely to live in poor neighborhoods, significantly worse maternal/infant low birth wt & mortality

#SCCM2024
2/
Udeh: immigrants to US adversely affect NN mortality.

Allopathic loading and telomere shortening as result of racism & stress. It is CUMULATIVE.

⬆️ & earlier chronic diseases. Clinicians still have false beliefs about Black patients

Let's talk about Bundled Care of Pediatric Critical Care Patients: Guidelines and Implementation Part 2! We start with Dr. John Berkenbosch talking about choosing the right analgesic/sedation/NMB agent

#SCCM2022 #PedsICU

Underlying disease may cause pain that we cannot well appreciate.

✅Enhancement of sleep should be a goal for its restoration and reduction of delirium.
✅IV opiates strong recommendation to manage moderate to severe pain
❓Need studies comparing opiates
#SCCM2022 #PedsICU
2/
Non-opioid adjunct
Consider use of non opioids both NSAIDS and APAP
Reduced pain scores, and opiate use

My friend and former division chief Dr. Jim Besunder talks about evidence based assessment of pain and agitation #SCCM2022 #PedsICU #PANDEM
1/
Besunder - while self report is the gold standard, the age, acuity and interventions of the #PedsICU patient make this often not useful. Many other tools aren't validated in the population. 2 that work well are Oucher and Wong Baker #SCCM2022
2/
The guidelines recommend using self report tools when possible, the FLACC or COMFORT-B in non-communicative patients. Avoid use of VS alone to assess pain. #SCCM2022 #PedsICU

Preparedness, technology, staff wellbeing, education led to innovation. B/C future disasters are inevitable, what did we do well? Where did we lag (PPE)? #SCCM2022

Conventional, Contingency practice are familiar, but we have been in extended Crisis mode

Dr. G talks about Risk = Probability x Severity.

Maybe we should add duration (my own thoughts)

Improving communication with all staff members needed. How to augment with non CC providers?

Sustainability over time - sick staff, burnout, early retirement
