Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The investigators hypothesize that critical care trained registered nurses and physicians can perform measurements of cognitive impairment in critically ill pediatric patients in a reliable and valid manner. To test this hypothesis, the investigators will incorporate an instrument (psCAM-ICU) to assess both components of consciousness, arousal and content, in critically ill pediatric patients at least 6 months to children 5 years of age, both on and off mechanical ventilation, and compare these assessments to those of the reference standard.
