Popis: OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Early pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) mobilization is safe and associated with improved outcomes. Nursing-specific mobility training is desired and improves mobilization compliance. Thus, our aim is to implement a nurse-targeted, simulation-based early mobility curriculum to determine if it increases the frequency of PICU mobilizations. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We will conduct a single center pre-post interventional study of an in situ nurse-targeted, simulation-based early mobility curriculum. We will prospectively evaluate mobilization events in 100 patients admitted during the pre-intervention phase (n=50) and the post-intervention phase (n=50). Inclusion criteria are children ages 1 day to 17 years old admitted to the PICU for ≥3 days. Exclusion criteria include specific mobility contraindications. PICU-wide deployment will be complete when >80% of nurses have participated in the curriculum. Demographic and clinical information will be obtained. Mobility data obtained will include number of nursing-led mobilizations, highest level of mobility achieved, and potential safety events. Data will be collected from the EMR and the nurse caring for the patient. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: The primary endpoint will be the change in the number of nursing-led mobilization events per patient day. The secondary effectiveness outcome is the highest level of mobility achieved by patients during mobilization events in a day. A final secondary end point will be safety events defined as unplanned extubations, medical device dislodgement, falls, and cardiac arrests. Descriptive statistics for continuous variables will be presented as the median and interquartile range and categorical variables will be expressed as percentages. The effect of the simulation curriculum on the clinical outcomes will be assessed using mixed-effects models. Due to the lack of normality in number of nurse-led mobilizations and highest level of mobility achieved, the analysis will be performed using log-normal models. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: We hypothesize that we will demonstrate the crucial importance of hands-on nursing education to improve and increase early mobility of critically ill children
