Summary
This paper reports the dissemination, implementation and perceived effectiveness of EM ReSCu Peds, a free open-access simulation curriculum of 16 peer-reviewed paediatric cases developed for emergency medicine residents. It describes a regional-champion dissemination model, website and download analytics, and facilitator and learner survey data on satisfaction and educational value. Common cases included supraventricular tachycardia, diabetic ketoacidosis and anaphylaxis, with qualitative feedback prompting added facilitator flowsheets and multimedia resources. It is an educational implementation study rather than clinical guidance, of interest to PICU staff involved in simulation teaching of paediatric resuscitation.
