Tracheal intubation (TI) in critically ill children is a life-saving but high-risk procedure that involves multiple team members with diverse clinical skills. We aim to examine the association between the provider-reported teamwork rating and the occurrence of adverse TI-associated events (TIAEs). A retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data from 45 pediatric intensive care units in the National Emergency Airway Registry for Children (NEAR4KIDS) database from January 2013 to March 2018 was performed. A composite teamwork score was generated using the average of each of five (7-point Likert scale) domains in the teamwork assessment tool. Poor teamwork was defined as an average score of 4 or lower. Team provider stress data were also recorded with each intubation. A total of 12,536 TIs were reported from 2013 to 2018. Approximately 4.1% (n = 520) rated a poor teamwork score. TIs indicated for shock were more commonly associated with a poor teamwork score, while those indicated for procedures and those utilizing neuromuscular blockade were less commonly associated with a poor teamwork score. TIs with poor teamwork were associated with a higher occurrence of adverse TIAE (24.4% vs 14.4%, p < 0.001), severe TIAE (13.7% vs 5.9%, p < 0.001), and peri-intubation hypoxemia < 80% (26.4% vs 17.9%, p < 0.001). After adjusting for indication, provider type, and neuromuscular blockade use, poor teamwork was associated with higher odds of adverse TIAEs (odds ratio [OR], 1.77; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.35–2.34), severe TIAEs (OR, 2.23; 95% CI, 1.47–3.37), and hypoxemia (OR, 1.63; 95% CI, 1.25–2.03). TIs with poor teamwork were independently associated with a higher occurrence of TIAEs, severe TIAEs, and hypoxemia.
