Pediatric intensive care transport registry in Germany

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

A nationwide registry has been started to describe and analyze the need for and current practice of pediatric intensive care transports across Germany. The registry will collect standardized, observational data on children aged 27 days to 17 years who undergo interhospital critical care transport by dedicated intensive care teams, Type C ambulances, air ambulances, or who are accompanied by an intensive care/emergency medicine specialist, including transport mode, interventions during transfer, and destination. Participating centers such as Philipps University Marburg and University of Dresden will submit de-identified case data for aggregation and analysis. Results will be used to map service provision, identify regional gaps or variation in care, and support future demand planning for pediatric transport resources.
