Illinois EMSC 7 INTRODUCTION
8 Pediatric Rapid Response Team Other Rapid Response Team nomenclature: Critical Access Team (CAT) Medical Emergency Team (MET) Critical Care Outreach (CCO) Illinois EMSC A PRRT is a multidisciplinary group of clinicians within a hospital that bring pediatric critical care expertise to the child’s bedside Source: Microsoft Clip Art
Background Source: Microsoft Clip Art 9 Illinois EMSC Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI)1 2010 American Heart Association 3 100, 000 Lives Campaign Getting to Zero: The Kids Campaign Reduce unnecessary and avoidable pediatric deaths that occur in hospitals 2 Pediatric Advanced Life Support guidelines report that PRRTs may be beneficial Promising Results One children’s hospital demonstrated an 18% decline in monthly mortality rate and a 71% decline in monthly codes after initiating a PRRT 4 33 lives were saved during this PRRT study 4
Benefits 10 Illinois EMSC Goal: Prevent “failure to rescue” events by intervening early Reduce cardiac arrest and mortality rates 5, 6 Improve clinical outcomes and decrease length of hospital stays 5 Augment a culture of safety attitude Incorporate family centered care Empower the medical team and families with resources for activating urgent medical assistance 7
Additional Benefit 11 Illinois EMSC PRRTs can provide pediatric expertise/ resources to assist during: Pediatric surge events Mass casualty incidents Source: Michael Rieger; www. fema. gov

Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center. 12 “Failure to rescue” events Several hours of warning signs and symptoms of deterioration typically occur in admitted patients regardless of age before succumbing to cardiopulmonary arrest situations 4
Systemic Issues Related to 2, 8, 9 “Failure to Rescue” Events Source: Microsoft Clip Art 13 Illinois EMSC Failure to recognize signs and symptoms of clinical deterioration Failure in planning including assessments, treatments, and goals Failure to communicate including delays in calling for assistance Lack of readily available medical staff Lack of empowerment in obtaining further assistance
Success Requires Ongoing Commitment 14 PRRTs should be established and maintained to prevent the systemic issues found to contribute to “failure to rescue” events involving pediatric patients Source: Microsoft Clip Art Illinois EMSC
Illinois EMSC 15 1 -Tier System Versus 2 -Tier System
1 -Tier System 5 16 Illinois EMSC Definition One team within a hospital that responds to all pediatric rapid response events and all pediatric code events Source: Microsoft Clip Art
5 1 -Tier System 17 Illinois EMSC Benefits Definitive care is quick All services are immediately available with one team Implementation may be more practical for smaller hospitals Challenges Requires highly skilled personnel to respond to all events Can intimidate staff to initiate the response More costly Can strain staffing if all expert staff is from one hospital unit
2 -Tier System 5 18 Illinois EMSC Definition The pediatric code team and the PRRT are completely separate Both teams establish criteria that differentiate the types of events to which each respond Image Source: Microsoft Clip Art Include physiologic criteria/triggers that prompt when the PRRT should alert the Pediatric Code Team
5 2 -Tier System 19 Illinois EMSC Benefits Challenges Less costly Less intimidating for staff to initiate Larger hospitals may find this system easier to implement More staff with pediatric expertise are needed Requires effective communication between both teams Formal quality improvement processes are needed for both teams
Illinois EMSC 20 PRRT Essential Components • • • Team composition Activation Location of response Documentation Pre-established guidelines Communication Evaluation Process Education Barriers and Solutions
Team Composition 21 Illinois EMSC Based on individual hospital’s: Needs Culture Available resources Must be able to respond immediately AND have the pediatric expertise necessary to respond to a variety of emergencies 6, 8, 10, 11 Source: Microsoft Clip Art
PRRT Members Clinical 22 Illinois EMSC Minimum core composition 8 At least one physician or nurse with pediatric expertise Respiratory therapist with pediatric experience
23 Other PRRT Members Considerations Must be able to respond immediately AND have the pediatric expertise necessary to respond to a variety of emergencies 6, 8, 10, 11 Illinois EMSC Clinical: Emergency Department RN Pharmacist Nurse Practitioner Pediatric Hospitalist Pediatric Intensivist Pediatric ICU RN Pediatric Residents
24 Other PRRT Members Considerations Non-clinical: Nursing Supervisor Arranges pediatric transfer Facilitates communication with the patient’s primary physician as needed Chaplain Promotes family presence Illinois EMSC
Activation: “No False Alarm” Approach 25 Illinois EMSC Any serious concern for the patient is a valid reason to activate the team 6 Must maintain a nonjudgmental and non- punitive attitude when the PRRT is activated Promoting pediatric safety Necessitates mutual respect and collaboration Requires education of the PRRT process Source: Microsoft Clip Art
Who Can Activate the PRRT 26 Illinois EMSC Any Staff 6 Deterioration defined by established criteria Any staff having serious concerns Families 12 Source: Microsoft Clip Art One study demonstrated: Only 8% of all PRRT activations were initiated by family More than half of these family activated calls required transfer to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU)12
Criteria for Activating the PRRT 27 Illinois EMSC Common reasons for initiating PRRT 6 Acute changes in heart rate, blood pressure, or respiratory rate Hypoxia Mental status changes Staff and/or family concerns Source: Kotagal, Ulma. 100, 000 Lives campaign: Rapid Response Teams.

Location of Response 30 Illinois EMSC Defining the areas where the PRRT will respond helps guide the specific responsibilities of the team Will the PRRT respond only to inpatient units? Will the PRRT respond to radiology or other outpatient care areas? Will the PRRT respond to child visitors?
Locations of Response 31 Illinois EMSC Inpatient Areas Can provide early intervention following established protocols Outpatient & Non-clinical Areas May be useful for assessing the situation Further considerations are Can assist with transporting needed if children are the child safely to the admitted to pediatric beds on emergency department for adult units further care Examples of non-clinical areas where children may be present: cafeteria, lobby, gift
Documentation 32 Illinois EMSC Key documentation elements: Reason for the call Who activated the call Interventions required and administered Team members that responded to the call Patient disposition after the event

4 Barriers and Solutions 41 Illinois EMSC Barrier Solution Limited staffing and resources Source: Microsoft Clip Art Utilizing the 1 -Tier method instead of the 2 Tier method is one way to make use of existing staffing resources Educating staff during work time hours may help decrease education costs
14, 15 Barriers and Solutions 42 Illinois EMSC Barrier Ineffective use of the PRRT Solution Source: Microsoft Clip Art Encourage staff to be patient safety advocates Conduct education on the PRRT process and review activation criteria Reinforce the “no false alarm approach”
5, 16 Barriers and Solutions Source: Microsoft Clip Art 43 Illinois EMSC Barrier Lack of communication and teamwork that exists between disciplines which may hinder the overall development of a PRRT program Solution No false alarm approach Making pediatric safety a priority helps to encourage teamwork and cooperation among disciplines Administrative support Source: Microsoft Clip Art
16 Barriers and Solutions 44 Illinois EMSC Barrier Culture and professional norms existing within a hospital follow a traditional health care hierarchy AHRQ “Will It Work Here? A Decision maker’s Guide to Adopting Innovations” may be a useful reference when creating a new hospital program Solution A collaborative multi -disciplinary approach is key and can help breakdown traditional health care hierarchy
Illinois EMSC 45 PRRT Activation Examples
Inpatient Nurse Activation 46 Illinois EMSC An infant develops respiratory distress along with acute changes in vital signs after a bottle feeding during the night, which worries the inpatient pediatric nurse. The nurse then activates the PRRT. Source: Microsoft Clip Art
Parent Activation 47 Illinois EMSC A 4 -year-old child develops an allergic reaction with respiratory distress after receiving an intravenous antibiotic. The parent activates the PRRT. (Source: Optimistworld. com/anaphylaxis)
Respiratory Therapist Activation 48 While a respiratory therapist is performing tracheostomy care, he notices an immediate decline in the child’s condition (e. g. , increased work of breathing and change in mental status). The respiratory therapist activates the PRRT. Illinois EMSC Source: Personal Photograph. Cary, Illinois.
Outpatient Area Activation 49 Illinois EMSC An 8 -year-old child develops respiratory distress after receiving intravenous contrast during an outpatient procedure. The radiology staff recognizes the change in the child’s condition and activates the PRRT. Source: Two View CT Scan Source: Il EMSC
Use of PRRT in a Mass Casualty Event 50 Illinois EMSC A large number of pediatric patients is expected to seek medical care in the emergency department following a school bus crash. The PRRT is activated as part of the hospital Emergency Operations Plan (EOP).
