The Fourth Edition of the Prehospital Pediatric Education Program (PEPP) is an evidence-based resource that provides essential medical content for the evaluation and management of infants and children in this field. In this innovative program, physicians were paired with emergency medical services (EMS) providers to ensure that the content reflected recommended practices and current realities in the field. Developed by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), PEPP aims to equip prehospital care professionals with the knowledge, skills, and confidence needed to effectively assess and manage pediatric patients. The Fourth Edition incorporates a new chapter on behavioral emergencies, a team of EMS authors of the highest caliber working alongside AAP medical reviewers to ensure top-notch medical content with a focus on real-world application in the field. New procedures for applying tourniquets and administering medications intranasally are also included. Key features include: The PEPP Triangular Assessment Framework, which represents the core of the PEPP patient assessment method, encompassing evaluation of appearance, breathing effort, and skin circulation. The PEPP Patient Assessment Organizer provides students with a straightforward and easy-to-understand reference for the process of evaluating pediatric patients. Case studies offer students the opportunity to apply their knowledge in practical scenarios.
