Summary
This pilot study tests a program called Heartsight, which provides educational modules to caregivers of children who have had a cardiac arrest. The goal is to see if the program is feasible and acceptable, and whether it can reduce caregivers' uncertainty, anxiety, depression, and stress. Up to 30 caregivers of children under 17.5 years old who had a cardiac arrest lasting at least 2 minutes are being enrolled.
