Is PEARS right for me?
The AHA’s Pediatric Emergency Assessment, Recognition, and Stabiliazaion (PEARS) Course is designed for healthcare providers and others who might encounter pediatric emergency situations during their work, including: Physicians and nurses not specializing in pediatrics, Nurse practitioners, Physician assistants, EMTs, Respiratory therapists, Prehospital and in-facility healthcare providers (outside of critical-care areas), Outpatient clinic staff, other healthcare providers who infrequently sees critically ill or injured infants and children, and School-based providers
During PEARS, students interact with real patient cases, and realistic simulations and animations to assess and stabilize pediatric patients experiencing respiratory and shock emergencies, and cardiopulmonary arrest. PEARS prepares students to provide appropriate lifesaving interventions within the initial minutes of response until a child can be transferred to an advanced life support provider.
