Adult Out Of Hospital Cardiac Arrest Criteria For Extracorporeal Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Activation May Not Be The Same For Pediatric Out Of Hospital Cardiac Arrest, Lindsay Fick, Sherouk A. Abdelmoity, Jennifer Flint, Ashley Sherman, Jenna Miller

Presentations

Pediatric out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) remains a high-mortality event, with survival to discharge consistently below 10%. Although extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (E-CPR) improves outcomes for in-hospital cardiac arrest, its application in the pre-hospital environment is not well defined for pediatrics. Identifying which pediatric patients might benefit from OHCA ECPR activation is essential for developing feasible pre hospital pediatric E-CPR systems. Preliminary analysis of applying  criteria for adult OHCA ECPR activation can provide a crucial next step in establishing feasibility and applicability for the pediatric patient population.

Methods

A single center retrospective review was conducted of pediatric OHCA cases presenting from 2018–2025. …

Quantitative Echocardiography Markers To Denote Severity Of Tricuspid Regurgitation Compared To Cardiac Mri In Single Right Ventricle Variants, Tony Zunica, Daniel Forsha, Janelle Noel-Macdonnell, Anmol Goyal

Posters

Background: Single right ventricle and Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS) are congenital heart diseases that require multiple palliative surgeries to create a single right ventricular system. 25-30% of these patients develop significant tricuspid regurgitation (TR), which is associated with worse outcomes among all stages of palliation. Echocardiography remains the cornerstone imaging modality for serial evaluation in these patients. However, estimating tricuspid regurgitation is highly subjective in the pediatric population, necessitating need for reliable and reproducible quantitative echocardiography markers. Currently, cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is considered the gold standard for quantification of tricuspid regurgitation with good accuracy and reproducibility. Objectives/Goal: Our …

Perioperative Anaphylaxis In A Healthy Adolescent After First Lifetime Surgery, Shayan Sazdar, Salman Aljubran

Posters

Introduction: Perioperative anaphylaxis is a rare life-threatening event. Its evaluation poses complex considerations inherent to the use of multiple medications. Patient presentation: A healthy 11-year-old boy developed anaphylaxis shortly after discharge home from first lifetime surgery for orchiopexy. Perioperative medications included rocuronium, propofol, fentanyl, bupivacaine, sugammadex, ondansetron, dexamethasone, dexmedetomidine, and ketorolac. No antibiotics. After surgery, he consumed fast food dinner and ice cream. Within 2 hours after discharge home, he returned to our Emergency Department (ED) with facial and tongue angioedema, hives, and respiratory distress. He received multiple doses of intramuscular epinephrine and briefly required epinephrine drip in the ED. …

Asthma Phenotypes And Control In 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome: A Single-Center Retrospective Study, Cody Shopper, Katey Campbell, Nikita S. Raje

Posters

Background: Patients with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome have increased rates of atopy and immune dysregulation and may experience a higher burden of asthma; however, real-world data describing asthma control, severity, and treatment patterns in this population are limited. We hypothesized that asthma control and severity patterns in patients with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome differ from those observed in the general asthma population. Objectives/Goal: To characterize asthma control, severity, and treatment patterns among patients with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome and to compare observed patterns with those typically reported in the general asthma population. Methods/Design: We conducted a retrospective observational cohort study of patients with …

Embedding Interprofessional Education In Pediatric Clerkships: Lessons From Nebraska’S Tracking Infant Progress Statewide (Tips) Program, Grace E. Berentson, Liliana Bronner, Paige Hardy, Neil Kalsi, Brianna Brei, Kerry Miller

Posters and Presentations: Munroe-Meyer Institute

Background: NICU graduates experience disproportionate developmental and health challenges. Their families face barriers to equitable care including access to coordinated follow-up services. Traditional medical education rarely exposes students to authentic interprofessional models of care that address these inequities. The Tracking Infant Progress Statewide (TIPS) program provides developmental, social, and medical follow-up for NICU graduates across Nebraska, bringing together physicians, nurse practitioners, child developmental specialists, and nurses in a single family-centered visit. Embedding third-year medical students into this setting models collaborative practice, builds understanding of interprofessional competencies, and fosters awareness of systemic inequities affecting NICU families. This innovative curricular approach differs …
