In the final year of the pediatric longitudinal simulation curriculum, senior residents are placed in simulation cases that reflect situations in which they would realistically find themselves, including leading codes and being the first responder in the NICU. The cases are focused on communication and clinical reasoning and represent things we believe senior residents should be able to do independently by the end of the year. Senior residents, in pairs, progress through 6 level-specific simulated cases over the course of the academic year for the purposes of education and formative evaluations. At the end of the academic year, each senior progresses through 6 additional cases individually, back-to-back, without debriefing for the purposes of summative evaluation.
