Summary
This paper describes PROGNOSE, a Dutch nationwide multicentre registry of paediatric cardiac arrest, rather than a clinical guideline. It sets out standardised data collection across Dutch PICUs covering pre-hospital factors, resuscitation characteristics, post-return of circulation care and neuroprognostication markers (biomarkers, EEG, imaging), with structured follow-up to age 17. The aim is to support future evidence-based prognostication after paediatric cardiac arrest and to link with the international pediRES-Q network. Of background interest to PICU staff involved in post-arrest care and neurological outcome assessment.
