Overview

“Fundamental Critical Care Support: Pediatric” is a two-day training consisting of both didactic and hands-on, skilled-based education that teaches nonintensivists to recognize critical illness and initiate care for the critically ill pediatric patient and is recommended for any health care professional who may encounter a critically ill or injured pediatric patient. The course addresses fundamental management principles for the first 24 hours of post-resuscitation management of the critically ill pediatric patient or until transfer or appropriate critical care consultation can be arranged.

Objectives

At the conclusion of the activity, participants will be able to:

- prioritize assessment needs for the critically ill or injured infant and child
- select appropriate diagnostic tests
- identify and respond to significant changes in the unstable pediatric patient
- recognize and initiate management of acute life-threatening conditions
- determine the need for expert consultation
- determine the need for patient transfer

General Information

Speaker Biography

Jeffrey Salomon, M.D., MBA, is a pediatric critical care physician with a focus on changes to the microbiome in congenital heart disease. Recognizing the changes to the microbiome in critical illness having casual relation to outcomes, he began to ask if similar changes in patients with altered gut perfusion or low oxygen states had changes to the bacterial microcosm in the gut which could influence outcomes. As cardiopulmonary bypass causes significant inflammation following cardiac surgery, these changes to the microbiome, could influence patient outcomes.

Dr. Salomon hopes to carve out his niche in the area of congenital heart disease within the growing field of the microbiome. His goal is to develop synbiotics, which can be given to patient populations to improve the health of the bacteria in the gut and improve patient outcomes before and after surgical repair of cardiac defects.

A secondary interest of Dr. Salomon is how the microbiome influences intestinal barrier dysfunction and intestinal metabolites to influence disease processes. The impact on a variety of disease states continues to grow, but little has been invested into pediatric disease processes. Understanding the role of gut health in a variety of diseases can help a multitude of patients, and evaluation of intestinal metabolites could offer patient specific therapies.
