315 - HEARTBEAT OF EXCELLENCE: ELEVATING QUALITY CARE IN PEDIATRIC CARDIAC INTENSIVE CARE

Saturday, October 26, 2024

8:30 AM – 9:30 AM PT

Room: 212-213

Workshop Description: Quality of care and improvement in critically ill children with congenital heart disease requires effective communication skills, combined with a deep understanding of pediatric cardiac care and a patient-centered mindset. These factors are crucial for quality improvement efforts in this field. This workshop aims to provide participants with invaluable insights into the latest knowledge translation methodologies, facilitating the transfer of research insights from bench to bedside. Whether you come from a community hospital or a large quaternary center, this event will provide a platform for attendees to share their commitment to providing optimal care for pediatric cardiac patients.
For the first time ever, we are incorporating a diverse multi-specialty approach, bringing together pediatric cardiac critical care, adult cardiac intensive care, pediatric cardiology, pediatric cardiac surgery, pediatric cardiac anesthesia, perfusion, and nursing. This unique collaboration aims to create an unparalleled workshop experience. Furthermore, we have made significant efforts to ensure diversity and inclusivity by including participants from different generations, geographic locations, and genders. Importantly, this inclusive approach allows different skill sets and backgrounds to enhance the workshop's quality and provide a valuable learning opportunity for all attendees.
Through collaborative learning opportunities and presentations by multidisciplinary faculty, participants will gain firsthand knowledge about the successes and challenges encountered in specific quality projects. Real-life patient outcomes will be emphasized throughout the event, enriching the educational experience with tangible examples from clinical practice that can be applied in any center.

Interactive and Engagement Activities Description: This workshop is designed to engage all members attending the Canadian Cardiovascular Congress in the management of patients with congenital heart disease. During the workshop, all sessions will start with a clinical problem related to improving Quality Care, and will be led by national leaders in the field.
To encourage interaction and engagement, generous time will be given for participants to interact with the panel at the end of the sessions. Any questions during the symposium can be submitted electronically through the CCC app. Additionally, we will be collecting written feedback from participants to further enhance future CCS Quality Workshops.

Learning Objectives:

At the end of this session participants will be able to:

identify enhanced communication tools essential for effective collaboration within multidisciplinary teams in the pediatric cardiac intensive care unit;
summarize the spectrum of quality improvement methodologies and ideas, enabling them to begin to facilitate continuous quality improvement efforts in intensive care;
translate quality assurance initiatives tailored to the unique needs of their respective healthcare settings, irrespective of institutional size or resources;
identify strategies to promote continuous patient safety and quality improvement initiatives within the intensive care unit; and
apply strategies for family and patient centered care in pediatric critical care settings, including effective communication with families, support during stressful situations, and involvement in care decisions.
