SCCM Pod-300 Timing of Death in Children Referred for Intensive Care with Severe Sepsis

Margaret Parker, MD, MCCM, speaks with Mirjana Cvetkovic, FRCA, about the article, “Timing of Death in Children Referred for Intensive Care with Severe Sepsis: Implications for Interventional Studies,” published in the June 2015 issue of Pediatric Critical Care Medicine. Dr. Cvetkovic works as a Clinical Fellow at the Children’s Acute Transport Service at Great Ormond Street Hospital in London and a Consultant Intensivist in Anesthesia at Leicester Hospital. In this article, Dr. Cvetkovic and coauthors examine the estimator of pediatric septic deaths and the challenges local hospitals are presented with when treating children with sepsis. UPDATE: Cvetkovic notes that CATS has had extensive outreach education for many years. Reference - http://site.cats.nhs.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/cats_annual_reportvers2.4.pdf
