Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| We could expect to see a difference in any, all or none of the three weight groups. If there is no significant difference in any of the three groups between Broselow weight and true weight, the Broselow tape is accurate for the study population and can be piloted for use in pediatric resuscitations in Max HospitalsTimepoint: AFTER 6 MONTHS WE WOULD COLLECT THE DATA ALL TOGETHER | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| If there is a significant difference in one/two of the subgroups but not in others, we could recommend use of the tape for those subgroups but not in others pending further research. We will analyze our date for preliminary correction factors that would need to be validated in a further study. The Broselow tape would be inaccurate for use in the study population if there are significant differences across all three categories. Timepoint: Correlation | — |
