Pediatric Code Blue Protocol

A Pediatric Code Blue Protocol is a systematic response to a child's medical emergency when their heart or breathing stops. It involves immediate activation of emergency response teams, starting CPR to maintain blood flow, and administering necessary medications. The goal is to restore breathing and heart function quickly. The protocol includes assessing the child's condition, calling for help, performing effective chest compressions and rescue breaths, and using medical devices like a defibrillator if needed. It’s designed to ensure prompt, coordinated action to save the child's life while minimizing further injury.
