We often hear about high-performance CPR in adults, yet almost never in pediatrics. This special 2-hour session will show you exactly how pediatric high-performance CPR should occur, and each participant will actively practice each of the specified roles. By using this technique, your department will drastically improve outcomes in pediatric cardiac arrest.

Learning Objectives:

Describe the basic tenets of high-performance CPR in pediatrics.
Demonstrate how to prepare en route and perform on scene.
Demonstrate how to set up the equipment for high-performance CPR in children.
