International Pediatric Emergency Medicine and Critical Care Fellow Education: Utilizing Virtual Resuscitation Simulation in Settings With Differing Resources

Pediatric Emergency and Critical Care-Kenya (PECC-Kenya) is an international collaboration between the University of Nairobi and the University of Washington (UW) supporting a combined fellowship program in pediatric emergency medicine (PEM) and pediatric critical care medicine (PCCM) in Kenya. Typically, PEM/PCCM faculty from UW travel to Kenya to support in-person simulation, which was cancelled due to COVID-19 travel restrictions. This presented a need for alternative modalities to continue simulation-based education. This technical report describes the use of virtual simulation for pediatric emergency and critical care fellow education on the management of hypovolemic and septic shock, utilizing international guidelines and being based on resource availability.
