Rapid sequence intubation (RSI) in children is a low‐incidence, high‐risk event associated with cognitive overload and potential errors producing unfavourable outcomes. Cognitive aids, such as charts, algorithms and flow diagrams, are prompts that externalise and structure mental processes to reduce cognitive load, thereby reducing errors. The Paediatric Anaesthetic Emergency Drug Solution (PAEDS) approach combines a colour‐coded chart and medication box with a simplified mathematical system of volume‐based dosing; the effect of which on cognitive load during a simulated RSI has not previously been described.
