Pediatric Emergency Assessment, Recognition, and Stabilization (PEARS) Course

Intended for healthcare providers and others who infrequently see critically ill children -- and who are not required to have a PALS course completion card -- the PEARS course helps build the foundation for core assessment and recognition knowledge, including how to:

• identify a pediatric victim at risk of severe cardiopulmonary distress
• recognize the signs of impending respiratory failure or shock
• initiate the appropriate treatment
• follow recommended procedures for preventing disability and death in children.

Perfect for physicians who do not specialize in pediatrics, nurses, prehospital providers, in-hospital healthcare providers outside of critical-care areas, outpatient clinic staff, and school-based providers.

The NEW PEARS course materials include:

PEARS Provider Manual (80-1417)
Helps prepare students to identify a pediatric victim at risk of severe cardiopulmonary distress, intervene early to stabilize the child, and contact the next level of care early.
