Brief Summary

The goal of this pragmatic prospective Type 1 Hybrid Implementation-Effectiveness Trial study is to learn if The Situation Awareness Incorporating Multidisciplinary Teams Reduce Arrests In (SAMURAI) the PICU Bundle can reduce PICU CPR events. The SAMURAI PICU Bundle includes an automated PICU warning tool, twice daily huddles and mitigation plans. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Is the adapted bundle will be acceptable, feasible, and appropriate to stakeholders prior to implementation?

Will there be at least a 30% relative reduction in PICU CPR events following successful implementation of the bundle?

Each site will:

Adapt and implement SAMURAI PICU Bundle which includes an automated PICU warning tool, twice daily huddles and mitigation plans

Detailed Description

As nearly 95% of pediatric IHCAs occur in PICUs, we developed an interventional cardiac arrest prevention bundle targeted to PICU healthcare providers. In a previous single center trial, the use of the SAMURAI PICU bundle improved early identification of high-risk patients, increased shared situation awareness, and supported risk mitigation plans, leading to a >50% decrease in IHCA events requiring cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Early identification occurs via the PICU Warning Tool, an automated, electronic medical record clinical decision support tool that provides a non-interruptive notification to care providers of high-risk patients. This prediction tool prompts a bedside huddle to ensure shared situation awareness and development of a mitigation plan. This novel approach of emphasizing shared situation awareness through automated clinical decision support and mitigation of risk has demonstrated reduction in CPR events and mortality within the PICU clinical environment.

This study employs a user-centered design model to adapt, implement, and assess the feasibility and effectiveness of SAMURAI PICU at other pediatric institutions. The hypothesis is that identification of PICU patients at high risk for IHCA through the use of the PICU Warning Tool and integration of this high-risk status in daily safety huddles will lead to improved shared situation awareness and subsequent reduction in CPR events at participating institutions. This approach will utilize a five-center pragmatic prospective Hybrid Type 1 effectiveness-implementation study leveraging the existing infrastructure of Pediatric Resuscitation Quality Collaborative (pediRES-Q).

Study Groups

Site A

Site A will begin a transition period of no more than 6 months (while continuing to collect baseline data). During the transition period, the local study team will receive education about the intervention and help tailor the tools and materials to fit their institutional needs. Upon completion of the transition period, Site A will immediately begin the intervention period. They will then remain in the intervention period (using the SAMURAI Bundle) for the remaining study period.

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

SAMURAI PICU Bundle

Intervention Type: OTHER

The proposed multifaceted SAMURAI PICU Bundle is an intervention with the following core elements: 1) PICU Warning Tool: an automated clinical decision support (CDS) tool to provide a non-interruptive interprofessional predictive alert, 2) twice daily safety huddles with unit leadership, and 3) bedside assessment including the care team and patient's family to complete and display a bedside mitigation plan to prevent deterioration. This intervention combines the automated accurate prediction of the PICU Warning Tool with the use of provider intuition or a "gut feeling" from huddles to improve decision making at the bedside. Peripheral elements and possible adaptations will be suggested during Aim 1 and additional peripheral elements may be added by local sites after discussion with the PI through a user-centered design approach.

Site B

Site B will begin a control period of approximately 6 months, during which they will continue to collect data while operating under their institutional standards (No SAMURAI Intervention). At the end of the control period, they will start a transition period of up to 6 months, during which time they will receive education and adapt the tools and materials to fit their institutional needs. At the conclusion of the transition period, they will begin implementing the study intervention (usage of the SAMURAI bundle) for the remaining study period

At the end of the control period, they will start a transition period of up to 6 months, during which time they will receive education and adapt the tools and materials to fit their institutional needs.
