• Remains prioritized based around Primary Survey • Updates to clarify, add missing information asked for (i.e. HIE management, neural tube defects and jaundice) • Sequences maintain same structure ‘ACORNS’ • Two new chapters: • Transition • Jaundice
Consolidated Core Steps • Creation of the Consolidated Core Steps (CCS) to better fit with actual practice and decrease repetition between sequences • CCS are now performed in parallel with the Primary Survey by a second ACoRN provider
• Level of Risk identification: • Consider consultation/transport

Chapters • Critical knowledge and physiology points at start of each chapter rather than presented in cases • Useful tools for many of the sequences • Cases continue to illustrate flow through the ACoRN Process and Level of Risk determination
Sequences • Reorganized with most acute/serious condition on the far left • Some additional qualifiers to alter Organization of Care after Core Steps (e.g. glucose level in Neurology Sequence)
Sequences • No significant change to Next Steps • Still point where you exit the sequence on first run through to address next item on Problem List • Consider the Level of Risk for each sequence • Patients final level of risk is highest achieved in any sequence
What's new in the 2nd edition? Kevin Coughlin, MD
Orientation to ACoRN Sequences • Overall flow and structure of the sequences has not changed • Streamlined the Core Steps • Re-organized Organization of Care so most urgent is to the left of the sequence • First exit still at Next Steps • Addition of Level of Risk assessment for each sequence
Resuscitation • Simplified • In line with ILCOR/NRP
Respiratory • Respiratory support clarified as CPAP or ventilation • SpO2 targets updated to 90-95% • Respiratory Score remains the primary decision aid for Organization of Care • Modifiers exist in this sequence that alter the organization of care if present or develop during the ACoRN process

Administration of ACoRN in Canada Kevin Coughlin, MD
ACoRN Providers and Instructors • Will follow a process similar to NRP • 3-year renewal process • Online exam prior to attending a course • Requirement for teaching to maintain status as Instructor • ACoRN is meant to be taught in a multidisciplinary team • Within the teaching team, the content knowledge and skills must be present to teach the entire core content of the ACoRN course • Current ACoRN Instructors who have taught within the last 3 years (before COVID) will be eligible for update and renewal of status
ACoRN Courses • Flexibility in how ACoRN is taught • There will be clearly identified core content that is necessary for a complete course • Additional materials will be provided for Instructors to use as add on modules based on a site/provider groups’ needs • Instructor resources including “Key Concepts” videos, Simulation and Debrief guides etc will be on the Instructor side of the ACoRN website
Newborn Stabilization in Canada • It is recognized that newborn stabilization skills are variable across the country. • CPS Practice Point in process identifying the need for a standard stabilization program (similar to NRP) across the country.
ACoRN: The Vision • ACoRN 2nd Edition is an update of the already fabulous ACoRN Program • Move to more of a simulation-based content delivery • Increased interactive nature with participant driven learning through simulation, debrief and reflection • Standardization and support of educational quality through the Key Concepts anchoring talks and Simulation Scenarios • Increased flexibility in design and delivery of the content • Modular components with identified ‘Core Content’ and additional resources available to Instructors as needed based on site/learners needs • Evaluation and assessment through online pretest and participation in simulations
Implementation Across the Country • Rolling out the new edition has been complicated by COVID • The change to increase the hands on, intensively simulation-based group learning nature of the 2nd edition pedagogy in this environment is further complicating things • Plan to reach out to each Regional/Provincial body to see how we can best support Instructor updates and roll out of the 2nd edition in the early fall. • We welcome your thoughts on how this can best be done
ACoRN: The Vision • Goal today: to highlight the newly developed content for you, a group of experienced ACoRN Instructors/Providers • We welcome feedback on things that you think will work and opportunities for improvement • We thank you, in advance, for your participation!
