To determine the impact of a cardiopulmonary resuscitation coach on the frequency and duration of pauses during simulated pediatric cardiac arrest. ⋯ When compared with teams without a cardiopulmonary resuscitation coach, the inclusion of a trained cardiopulmonary resuscitation coach leads to improved verbalization before pauses, decreased pause duration, shorter pauses during intubation, and better coordination of key tasks during chest compression pauses.

Multicenter Study Observational StudyTherapeutic Alliance Between Bereaved Parents and Physicians in the PICU.
Therapeutic alliance is the collaborative bond that develops between patients/families and healthcare providers. Our objective is to determine the extent of therapeutic alliance bereaved parents perceive to have occurred with their child's physicians during their child's PICU stay, and associated factors. ⋯ Among parents bereaved in the PICU, therapeutic alliance with physicians is moderately high. Future research should identify strategies to strengthen therapeutic alliance with Black parents and examine the role of alliance on bereaved parents' health outcomes.
