At the 14th Annual International Meeting for the Pediatric Cardiac Intensive Care Society, the authors presented a simulation workshop for junior multidisciplinary providers focused on cardiopulmonary interactions. We provide an overview of educational theories of particular relevance to curricular design for simulation-based or enhanced activities. We then demonstrate how these theories are applied to curriculum development for individuals to teams and for novice to experts. We review the role of simulation in cardiac intensive care education and the education theories that support its use. Finally, we demonstrate how a conceptual framework, SIMZones, can be applied to design effective simulation-based teaching.

Monocytes are critical in controlling tissue infections and inflammation. Monocyte dysfunction contributes to the inflammatory pathogenesis of cystic fibrosis (CF) caused by CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mutations, making CF a clinically relevant disease model for studying the contribution of monocytes to inflammation. Although CF monocytes exhibited adhesion defects, the precise mechanism is unclear.

We present the case of a child born with hypoplastic left heart syndrome. After developing multiple complications following the first surgical stage (Norwood procedure), her parents decide not to proceed with the second stage (Glenn operation). Cardiac surgeons, pediatric intensivists, a psychologist, and a bioethicist analyze whether further surgical intervention is ethically obligatory.

Unlabelled: This study aims to determine the incidence, clinical course, and risk factors of hypothyroidism following cardiac catheter (CC) in infants with congenital heart diseases (CHD). This prospective study involved 115 patients with CHD, all aged 3 years or younger, who underwent CC, as well as 100 healthy age- and sex-matched controls. Baseline thyroid function tests (TFTs) were conducted for both the patients and controls.

Unlabelled: This study aims to evaluate the clinical course of critical pertussis illness to the pediatric intensive care unit in Istanbul. The study was conducted as a multicenter, retrospective study between January 1, 2023, and December 31, 2023. Cases with positive polymerase chain reaction testing for Bordetella pertussis of nasopharyngeal swab samples within the first 24 h of pediatric intensive care unit admission were recorded.
