Listen "Heartbeats Ignored: Confronting Inequity in Pediatric Care"
Episode Synopsis
Resuscitating a child is not the same as resuscitating an adult. Pediatric-CPR requires different techniques, considerations, and often, an even greater sense of urgency. Dr. Sylvia Owusu-Ansah shares how disparities in cardiac care influence a child’s survival outcome. Pediatric Nurse Practitioner Blythe Pollack brings her frontline experience to the conversation, discussing the life-saving role of ECMO and the fight to keep children alive long enough to breathe on their own. Designed with nurse educators and healthcare advocates in mind, this episode offers practical tools, real-world context, and inspiring strategies to help drive equity in pediatric care.
