I worked a 12-hour shift last Friday. All my patients were younger than me, even the old and infirm ones ones.

We often tend to spend more time on pediatric resuscitation and CPR compared to adults. However, the question remains: what is the optimal duration of resuscitation efforts in these patients before considering termination? A recent retrospective study from Japan addressed this issue and found that fewer than 1% of children achieved favorable neurological outcomes (defined as moderate disability or better at one month) when CPR exceeded 64 minutes.

About 11 people die by drowning each day in the U.S. alone. Thousands more are treated for nonfatal near-drowning incidents in emergency departments. Drowning is one of the leading causes of death among those aged 14 and under. When a person is injured in the water, seconds matter.
