PBLD - When Minutes Matter: Pediatric Massive Hemorrhage and the 7Ts of Rapid Recovery

November 25, 2026

8:00 pm - 9:00 pm

From the perspective of a community hospital, this Problem-Based Learning Discussion (PBLD) explores the modern approach to life-threatening hemorrhage in children, emphasizing early recognition and timely, coordinated management. Key topics include the epidemiology of pediatric massive hemorrhage; current definitions and limitations in activation criteria; and how size, anatomy, and physiology create unique vulnerabilities compared with adults.

Learning Objectives:
As a result of participating in this PBL discussion participants will be able to:

  1. Define massive hemorrhage in children.
  2. Discuss the implications of a child’s size, anatomy and physiology in relation to massive hemorrhage.
  3. List the “seven key components” of a pediatric MH protocol (MHP)
