AbstractPediatric cardiac arrest in the emergency department is rare. We emphasize the importance of preparedness for pediatric cardiac arrest and offer strategies for the optimal recognition and care of patients in cardiac arrest and peri-arrest. This article focuses on both prevention of arrest and the key elements of pediatric resuscitation that have been shown to improve outcomes for children in cardiac arrest. Finally, we review changes to the American Heart Association Guidelines for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiovascular Care that were published in 2020.Copyright © 2023 Elsevier Inc.
