Clinical judgement

Concern for incomplete Kawasaki, IVIG resistance, or post-KD complications (aneurysm rupture, thrombosis). Workup: repeat echo, inflammatory markers (ESR, CRP), EKG.

Team communication

Age-appropriate education and shared decision-making. Gradual transfer of responsibility, discussion of adult care models.

Professional responsibility

Address the behavior directly but privately if possible. Reinforce respect for all patients, regardless of complexity.

Scholarship and improvement

Specific knowledge of a recent impactful study. Ability to summarize key findings and implications.

Program fit

Clear, measurable goals related to specific technical skills. Understanding of the program's expertise in these areas.
