    Insights from the PRESSURE Trial by D. Inwald | OPENPediatrics‌

    In this World Shared Practice Forum podcast, Dr. David Inwald discusses the findings of the recently published PRESSURE randomized clinical trial. The trial evaluated permissive blood pressure targets for critically ill children receiving mechanical ventilation and vasoactive support compared to usual care. Dr. Inwald reviews the rationale that prompted the study, summarizes the primary and secondary outcomes, and discusses clinical implications of the findings. The host and speaker also explore how these results may influence hemodynamic management and evidence-based decision-making across diverse healthcare settings. LEARNING OBJECTIVES - Describe the rationale for investigating permissive blood pressure targets in pediatric critical care that led to the PRESSURE trial - Analyze the study design, inclusion criteria, intervention strategy, and primary outcomes of the PRESSURE randomized clinical trial - Interpret the trial's findings regarding clinical outcomes, safety measures, and adverse events associated with permissive MAP targeting - Evaluate the implications of the PRESSURE trial findings for pediatric critical care practice across diverse healthcare settings AUTHORS David Inwald, MB, BChir, FRCPCH, PhD Service Director, PICU consultant The Portland Hospital, London Jeffrey Burns, MD, MPH Emeritus Chief Division of Critical Care Medicine Department of Anesthesiology, Critical Care and Pain Medicine Boston Children's Hospital Professor of Anesthesia Harvard Medical School DATE Initial publication date: October 27, 2026.

    The Pink Team Effect: Reducing Postoperative Emergency Transfers in Complex Care‌

    In this Complex Care Journal Club podcast episode, Dr. Jason Zamkoff discusses a quality-improvement cohort study of a surgical hospitalist co-management program (Surgical Hospitalist Assisted Recovery/SHARe Team, or “Pink Team”) for children with medical complexity at Children’s Hospital Colorado. They describe how patients are selected using an internal complexity score and the institutional trust-building needed to launch the program, resulting in fewer post-operative emergency transfers to intensive care. Next steps include developing an externally validated complexity scoring tool and extending hospitalist involvement into the pre-operative period.‌ SPEAKER Jason Zamkoff, MD Professor of Pediatrics University of Colorado School of Medicine Pediatric Hospitalist Children's Hospital Colorado HOST Kilby Mann, MD Associate Professor, Director of Pediatric Rehabilitation University of North Carolina School of Medicine DATE Initial publication date: September 8, 2026.
