Pediatric MNM in 45 minutes

A presenter-mode walkthrough designed to replace slides for a 45-minute fellow teaching session. Built around two real cases, four widget demos, and three discussion prompts.

How to use this page

  • Open this page on the projector. Each section is a timed segment with speaker notes.
  • The green play button at the right starts a 45-minute countdown, the live timer also flags which segment you should be in.
  • The "Live demo" links below each section open the relevant widget, fellows can interact during Q&A.
  • The speaker notes are collapsed by default. Toggle them when you need a memory aid.

Hook, a real case in 60 seconds

A 12-year-old, day 6 post severe TBI. ICP 24, CPP 58, MAP 82, NIRS 62%/64%, PRx +0.30. Fellow asks: 'Are we treating the right number?'

Section 2 · 03:00 – 09:00 · 6 min

Foundation, the 6-minute physiology cram

Three ideas, each in 2 minutes.

Section 3 · 09:00 – 20:00 · 11 min

The toolkit, what each monitor actually samples

Walk through ICP/PRx → NIRS → TCD → EEG/aEEG → pupillometry. Two minutes each. End with: 'No single number, convergence.'

Section 4 · 20:00 – 30:00 · 10 min

Case 1, Maya, 12y, SAH day 6 vasospasm

Walk the multimodal trajectory: TCD MFV up, qEEG ADR down, NIRS asymmetric. Discuss: which monitor would have caught this first if you only had one?

Section 5 · 30:00 – 37:00 · 7 min

Case 2, Yusuf, 9y, HTS bolus and a regional NIRS drop

HTS works. ICP falls. Then 2 hours later L NIRS drops. CT shows a contusion. Discussion: what's the lesson about regional vs. global?

Section 6 · 37:00 – 42:00 · 5 min

Pediatric specifics + when the kit isn't there

Age bands matter. Open fontanelles change everything. Many monitors are research-grade in most centres. What do you do at 0300 with one nurse and a TCD probe?

Section 7 · 42:00 – 45:00 · 3 min

Take-homes + Q&A

Three sentences. Then questions.

What slides can't do

The reason this lecture is delivered as a website rather than slides: the fellows can interact live with the CPPopt widget, the discordance scenarios, and the dose calculator during Q&A. After the lecture, they have the full reference material in one URL, searchable, citation-anchored, and updated. Slides give a one-shot performance; this gives them a teaching surface they can return to.

Pre-flight checklist (5 minutes before)

If you have 30 minutes instead of 45

Drop sections 5 and 6. Run sections 1 (3 min) → 2 (5 min) → 3 (8 min) → 4 (10 min) → 7 (4 min). Hand out the quick-card at the door so fellows can read the omitted material.

If you have 60 minutes

Add a third case from the integration library. Best choices for fellows: Liam, CPPopt (algorithmic), Asher, DKA cerebral oedema (high-frequency PICU), or Noah, refractory status (every PICU sees this).
