the following research projects and imple-
ment several healthcare improvements:
•
A simulation centre comprising two
rooms under the logo: “Before exer-
cising, train”. The Paediatrics Simu-
lation Centre allows professionals to
acquire complex technical skills, inte-
grate knowledge, and train in a rea-
listic environment in order to improve
risk-free healthcare for the patient.
•
Online Paediatric Intensive Care Unit
(PICU): twenty PICUs participate in
this pilot project which aims to learn
about the benefits of an intensive
paediatrics consultation by phone or
video call in emergencies or in clinica-
lly unstable situations that may requi-
re transfer to the Paediatric Intensive
Care Units (PICUs).
•
Fever without a clear focus in children
