Consumer-driven research is increasingly being prioritized.Our aim was to partner with consumers identify the top 10 priorities for pediatric anesthesia and perioperative medicine. The ACORN (Anesthesia Consumer Research Network) formed collaborate children families across Australia.A prospective online survey developed generate ideas from consumers. in Qualtrics, a platform. Consumers were invited participate through poster advertising, social media posts, via consumer networks at...
ABSTRACT Background After‐hours pediatric anesthesia may pose increased risks, with a heightened potential for sudden cardio‐respiratory decline. While mortality rates are low in Australia and New Zealand, critical events morbidity occur more frequently present ongoing challenges. However, little is known about how trainees supervised during these high‐risk periods. Methods An anonymized online survey of members the Society Pediatric Anesthesia Zealand (SPANZA) was conducted to explore...
Background: The TREX (Trial Remifentanil DEXmedetomidine) trial aimed to determine if, in children < 2 years old, low-dose sevoflurane/dexmedetomidine/remifentanil anesthesia (LD-SEVO) is superior standard dose sevoflurane (STD-SEVO) terms of global cognitive function at 3 age. aim the present secondary analyses was compare incidence intraoperative hypotension and bradycardia, postoperative pain, time recovery, need for treatment light treatment, pain medications, morbidity mortality...
Hypoxaemia during anaesthesia for tubeless upper airway surgery in children with abnormal airways is common due to the complexity of balancing adequate depth maintenance spontaneous breathing and providing an uninterrupted field view surgeon. High-flow nasal oxygenation (HIGH-FLOW) can prolong safe apnoea time be used but date has not been compared alternative technique low-flow (LOW-FLOW). The aim investigate if use HIGH-FLOW reduce number hypoxaemic events requiring rescue LOW-FLOW....
Abstract Background Avoiding anesthesia for infant peripherally inserted central catheter insertion beyond the neonatal period has been subject of very little research despite this being a high‐risk age group. In our institution, we introduced “Fast, Feed, and Wrap” technique, previously described magnetic resonance imaging scans, infants up to 6 months weighing under 5.5 kg undergoing insertion. Aims The aim was report experience using Wrap,” in particular success rate proportion qualifying...
Inguinal hernia repair is the most common operation in infants, with well recognized anesthetic and perioperative risks. The aim was to investigate if combination of caudal block, high-flow nasal oxygen insufflation intravenous dexmedetomidine sedation suitable for infants undergoing inguinal surgery.
Background: Tubeless upper airway surgery in children is a complex procedure where surgeons and anaesthetists share the same operating field. These procedures are often interrupted for rescue oxygenation. The efficacy of nasal high-flow oxygenation to decrease frequency interruptions undergoing unknown.Methods: In this multicentre randomised trial conducted 5 tertiary hospitals Australia, aged 0-16 years age requiring tubeless were (1:1) receive either or standard-care during surgery. oxygen...
Background: The PTEN hamartoma tumor syndrome comprises a group of rare conditions caused by germline mutations the suppressor gene (Phosphatase and TENsin homolog deleted on chromosome 10). They include Cowden syndrome, Lhermitte-Duclos disease, Bannayan–Riley–Ruvalcaba but it appears likely that these represent spectrum in which penetrance clinical variability play significant roles. features vary between individuals can appear at any age. an increased risk for certain types cancers benign...
