Abstract Background There is a high prevalence of acute pain in children cared for the emergency care setting. However, there are still significant gaps knowledge regarding optimal management. We aimed to develop prioritized research agenda that identifies key questions pediatric management setting will guide future and optimize children. Methods used modified Delphi approach achieve consensus among multidisciplinary geographically diverse expert advisory group. An initial list 108 was...
OBJECTIVE Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often have comorbidities predisposing them to higher risk for sedation-related adverse events (AEs). Our objective was compare AEs in children and without ASD. PATIENTS AND METHODS We conducted a multicenter study of aged 3–18 years ASD who underwent sedation outside the operating room from May 1, 2022, April 30, 2023, using Pediatric Sedation Research Consortium database. The primary exposure diagnosis. compared after matching age, sex,...
Background Pediatric forearm fractures are common injuries in the pediatric emergency department (PED). procedural sedation (PPS) is often required for fracture reductions and pain control casting. Bier blocks hematoma types of regional anesthesia (RA) procedures that can be performed as a potential alternative to PPS. Objective The objective this study compare safety RA with We hypothesized has profile equal or superior PPS well shorter duration treatment PED. Methods encounters patients...
Im 20. Jahrhundert ist es durch das Auftreten von Shift-Varianten, d. h. Influenza-Virusstämmen mit einer weitgehenden Änderung ihrer antigenen Oberflächeneigenschaften, zu drei großen Pandemien gekommen. Die erste Pandemie wurde ein Influenza A-Virus H1N1 ausgelöst und hat zwischen 1918 1919 mehr als 30 Millionen Todesfälle weltweit gefordert [1]. Hierbei muss berücksichtigt werden, dass diese in die Zeit unmittelbar nach dem 1. Weltkrieg fiel. Zu dieser herrschte Europa vielen anderen...
Abstract Pediatric procedural sedation (PPS) is often performed outside of the operating room, and by various sub-specialty providers. There no consistency in how pediatric emergency medicine (PEM) fellows are trained PPS. The objective this study was to survey PEM program directors (PDs) about their current teaching practices via a direct survey. While many fellowship programs train PPS, we hypothesize that there consistent method developing measuring skill. A 12-question sent PDs directly...
Pediatric procedural sedation (PPS) is a core clinical competency of pediatric emergency medicine (PEM) fellowship training mandated by both the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education and American Board Pediatrics. Neither these certifying bodies, however, offers specific guidance with regard to attaining evaluating proficiency in trainees. Recent publications have revealed inconsistency educational approaches, attending oversight, PPS service rotation experiences, evaluation...
Background: Cervical spine injuries (CSIs) in children are uncommon but potentially devastating; however, indiscriminate neck imaging after trauma unnecessarily exposes to ionizing radiation. A robust pediatric CSI prediction rule is needed. Methods: Children <18 years experiencing blunt evaluated at 18 emergency departments (EDs) were eligible for enrollment into derivation or validation cohorts. risk factors prospectively collected by ED clinicians. CSIs determined reports and telephone...
OBJECTIVES COVID-19 mitigation strategies resulted in changes health care access and utilization, which could negatively impact adolescents at risk for sexually transmitted infections (STIs). We evaluated STI diagnoses during adolescent visits children’s hospitals COVID-19. METHODS conducted a retrospective cohort study using the Pediatric Health Information System database comparing (11–18 years) hospital with an diagnosis by International Classification of Diseases, 10th revision, code...
Objectives Children in the emergency department (ED) often require sedation for head computed tomography (CT) to ensure adequate image quality. Image acquisition time a CT using conventional single-source scanner is approximately 12 seconds; however, after installation November 2017 of 2 new dual-source dual-energy scanners, that decreased 1 3 seconds. We hypothesized fewer patients would faster scanners. Methods conducted retrospective chart review aged 0 18 years undergoing at pediatric...
