The Pediatric Cardiac Intensive Care Society (PCICS) Nursing Guidelines were developed to provide an evidence-based resource for bedside cardiac intensive care unit nursing care. Guideline topics include postoperative care, hemodynamic monitoring, arrhythmia management, and nutrition. These evidence-based care guidelines were presented at the 10th International Meeting of PCICS and have been utilized in the preparation of this article. They can be accessed at http://www.pcics.org/resources/pediatric-neonatal/. Utilization of these guidelines in practice is illustrated for single ventricle stage 1 palliation, Fontan operation, truncus arteriosus, and atrioventricular septal defect.
