Pediatric Resuscitation.

This article describes evidence-based nursing practices for detecting pediatric decompensation and prevention of cardiopulmonary arrest and outlines the process for effective and high-quality pediatric resuscitation and postresuscitation care. Primary concepts include pediatric decompensation signs and symptoms, pediatric resuscitation essential practices, and postresuscitation care, monitoring, and outcomes. Pediatric-specific considerations for family presence during resuscitation, ensuring good outcomes for medically complex children in community settings, and the role of targeted temperature management, continuous electroencephalography, and the use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in pediatric resuscitation are also discussed.
