Practice makes perfect: can simulated emergencies keep kids off the hospital?
NCT ID NCT04308109
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether realistic simulation training can help caregivers of children with tracheostomies (with or without home ventilators) handle emergencies better. About 60 caregivers will be split into two groups: one gets the simulation training, the other gets standard care. The goal is to see if training reduces hospital readmissions, ER visits, and phone calls to doctors.
