✦ Synopsis

Reviews of current emergency medicine residency programs repeatedly document deficiencies in the teaching and clinical experience of emergency pediatrics. To remedy this, a group of experienced teachers of emergency medicine and emergency pediatrics have jointly designed and pilot tested an integrated curriculum designed to operate within a 3-year emergency medicine residency. This integrated pediatric curriculum identifies educational objectives for training in pediatric emergencies and provides a specific plan for meeting these objectives with coordinated readings, laboratories, demonstrations, and intensive clinical encounters. The format also demonstrates how these methods may be utilized flexibly to capitalize on the particular strengths of individual emergency medical residencies and their trainees.
