Pediatric Resuscitation Education in Low-Middle-Income Countries: Effective Strategies for Successful Program Development.

Abstract

Despite established international guidelines, there is considerable variability in the quality of resuscitative care received by critically ill children in low-middle-income countries. While this problem is certainly multifactorial, education of health care workers is an important determinant of care quality. This article will discuss approaches to health care worker education in pediatric resuscitation in low-middle-income countries, with emphasis on aspects of educational programs that may contribute to positive educational and clinical outcomes.
