Children’s Code Cart

2017 Updates
2017 Code Cart Updates
• A new neonatal code record was developed for use in the neonate up to one month of age. This is
located on the blue clipboard in the neonatal basket for use in all neonatal areas, ED or radiology.
• The FDA made changes to drug labeling. Concentration ratios on single active ingredient injectable
drug products are prohibited. Epinephrine labels no longer state 1:10,000 or 1:1000 concentrations.
• You will now find the rapid fill adapters (aka “red-thingy”) both in the med tray as well as the
needle/ syringe box.
• ACLS, PALS and NRP cards were updated to current standards
• By end of year 2017, the ambu bags will come packaged with peep valve and appropriate sized
mask. Four mask sizes will be available:
− Infant ambu bag with peep valve
• new born mask
• infant mask
− Pediatric ambu bag with peep valve
• pediatric mask
• (obtain the infant mask from the infant ambu set when needed for pediatric patients)
− Adult ambu bag with peep valve
