• Among other studies, this network has successfully determined that hypothermia is neuroprotective for children who suffer from perinatal asphyxia—leading to a global change in standards of care across the country [6–8]. In 2001, the Emergency Medical Services for Children Program awarded cooperative agreements to fund the Pediatric Emergency Care Applied Research Network (PECARN) to conduct multi-institutional research in the management of acute illnesses of children. [...]the Pediatric Neurocritical Care Research Group (PNCRG) was formed in 2009 in liaison with PALISI to perform clinical and preclinical studies to optimize the functional outcome of critically-ill children with neurological conditions.
