PED 4224 Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU)
This is a great rotation for exposure to the pathophysiology and the complexities inherent in caring for critically ill patients, regardless of your specialty interests. ICU experiences are often the most challenging rotations in residency because of the sheer number of systems potentially compromised and their interaction with each other. Learning to prioritize and organize your approach, presentation, and plan of care in the ACR year can set you on the right path in a learning environment, rather than encounter it on your first day of residency. See how to schedule this rotation on the Pediatric ACR Intranet Page.
