Abstract:
AbstractNeurologic disorders contribute significantly to both morbidity and mortality among children in resource-limited settings, but there are a few succinct studies summarizing the epidemiology of neurologic disorders in these settings. A review of available literature was performed to identify data on the prevalence, etiology, outcomes, and treatment of neurologic disorders in children in resource-limited settings. The burden of neurologic disorders in children is high in resource-limited settings. Barriers to optimal care include lack of trained personnel, limited access to diagnostic technology, and limited availability of drugs used to treat common conditions. Several solutions have been suggested to deal with these challenges including increased collaborations to train neurologists willing to practice in resource-limited settings and increased training of physician extenders or community health workers. Further studies are necessary to improve our understanding of the epidemiology of neurologic disorders in resource-limited settings. Future epidemiologic studies should incorporate multiple countries in resource-limited settings and utilize standardized definitions and methodologies to enable comparison across regions.

Abstract Abstract 337 Background: Individuals with sickle cell disease (SCD) face a number of barriers as they attempt to access timely and appropriate health care. We previously reported that adult and pediatric patients with SCD differed on some barriers reported, with adults citing more barriers related to insurance and provider knowledge and attitudes. Patients' emotional status, including worry, frustration and anger, were also reported barriers to accessing health care. However, there has been limited research formally assessing mental health symptoms as potential barriers to accessing health care in SCD. Objective: To investigate the relation between mental health symptoms, quality of life and reported barriers to accessing healthcare. We hypothesized that 1) mental health symptoms would be predictive of reported barriers, for adults with SCD compared with children, and 2) quality of life would be inversely related to the number of reported barriers, for adults and children. Methods: 112 patients with SCD were enrolled in a cross sectional study. Pediatric patients and their parents, and adults with SCD completed screening measures of depression (Patient Health Questionnaire-9 or Children's Depression Inventory) and anxiety (Generalized Anxiety Disorder- 7 or Multidimensional Anxiety Scale for Children-10) and were categorized with no, mild, moderate or severe symptoms. They also completed quality of life measures (SF 36v2® or PedsQL®) and a validated checklist of barriers to accessing healthcare for SCD. Results: Participants were 35 children (M age 9.5, 1– 17 years) and their parents, and 77 adults (M age 31.2, 18 – 68 years); 53% female; 75% African American; 71% diagnosed with Hgb SS. Sixty one percent of adults reported moderate to severe depressive symptoms, compared with 4% of children (p <.001). Thirty-six percent of adults reported moderate to severe symptoms of anxiety, compared with 12% of children (p <.05). Adults reported significantly worse quality of life in the Physical (M =53.0, SD =23.7) and Mental Health (M =49.4, SD =23.2) domains compared with children (Physical M =65.6, SD =21.4, p <.05 and Mental Health M =66.0, SD =17.9, p <.01). In regression analyses, we found that, with gender and hemoglobin type controlled for, depression was predictive of number of barriers faced for adult (R2 =.27, β = 3.57 ±.88, n = 74) but not pediatric patients (R2 =.26, β = 5.68 ± 2.54, n = 26). Anxiety was predictive of number of barriers faced for adults (R2 =.28, β = 3.99 ±.94, n = 75) but not pediatric patients (R2 =.13, β = 2.13 ± 1.96, n = 26). Greater number of barriers faced was predictive of worse quality of life in the Mental Health domain for both adults and pediatrics, controlling for gender and hemoglobin type (R2 =.19, β = −.98 ±.26, n = 73 for adults and R2 =.28, β = −1.06 ±.36, n = 33 for pediatrics). In the Physical domain, greater number of barriers faced was predictive of worse quality of life for adults but not pediatrics, controlling for gender and hemoglobin type (R2 =.18, β = −.97 ±.26, n = 73 for adults and R2 =.15, β = −1.03 ±.46, n = 33 for pediatrics). Conclusion: Adults with SCD reported a higher prevalence of moderate to severe symptoms of depression and anxiety, compared with children with SCD and the general African American population. Mental health symptoms were predictive of difficulties with accessing health care for adult more so than pediatric patients. There is an urgent need to address barriers to health care for patients with SCD; to prevent morbidity in pediatrics that may contribute to impaired quality of life in adulthood; and to improve mental health services available to adults in particular.

Abstract:
Aim. To identify trends of further development, priorities, challenges and vectors of further research in social pediatrics. Methods. Interpretive content analysis of dissertations in the field of public health and healthcare for the period from 1991 to 2012 was performed. 4194 items were analyzed. Results. At the first stage of the research, it was found that 14.8% of public health dissertations presented during the research period addressed pediatric problems. The next stage included qualitative and quantitative analysis of top-priority topics of social pediatrics in public health dissertations. The analysis of social pediatrics areas included the following categories: (1) studies of social (psychosocial) determinants of children’s health; (2) studies of health condition of children and adolescents in a stressful situation; (3) organization of medical and social aid to children. Studies of social (psychosocial) determinants of children’s health were the most common (35.9 %). Studies of health status of vulnerable children and adolescents had a share of 15% of all studies. 7.6% of studies were devoted to pediatric medical and social aid organization. Conclusion. It is important to facilitate the research in social pediatrics to optimize the scientific data and improve pediatric medical and social aid.

Abstract:
Abstract Recently updated clinical guidelines have highlighted the gaps in our understanding and management of pediatric hypertension. With increased recognition and diagnosis of pediatric hypertension, the use of antihypertensive agents is also likely to increase. Drug selection to treat hypertension in the pediatric patient population remains challenging. This is primarily due to a lack of large, well-designed pediatric safety and efficacy trials, limited understanding of pharmacokinetics in children, and unknown risk of prolonged exposure to antihypertensive therapies. With newer legislation providing financial incentives for conducting clinical trials in children, along with publication of pediatric-focused guidelines, literature available for antihypertensive agents in pediatrics has increased over the last 20 years. The objective of this article is to review the literature for safety and efficacy of commonly prescribed antihypertensive agents in pediatrics. Thus far, the most data to support use in children was found for angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE-I), angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB), and calcium channel blockers (CCB). Several gaps were noted in the literature, particularly for beta blockers, vasodilators, and the long-term safety profile of antihypertensive agents in children. Further clinical trials are needed to guide safe and effective prescribing in the pediatric population.

Abstract:
Abstract Purpose The purpose of this review article is to discuss considerations for the critically ill child presenting to an emergency department (ED) with pharmacists who have minimal to no pediatric training. Summary In 2015, 17% of all children visited an ED, constituting 30 million visits. The majority of these children were treated at community hospitals where pediatric care resources, including a pediatric-trained pharmacist, may be limited. Because of the complex array of ages and disease states, the care of critically ill children in the ED creates many concerns for adult and community hospitals. This article will focus on several common disease states seen in the pediatric ED, including septic shock, trauma, status epilepticus, and diabetic ketoacidosis. Conclusion Critically ill children admitted to a community or adult ED provide therapeutic dilemmas and medication safety concerns. A pharmacist with training or experience in pediatrics can have a major impact in patient outcomes in many of the disease states seen in these pediatric patients. This article highlights several key differences between critically ill pediatric and adult patients to better prepare all pharmacists to care for these vulnerable patients.

Abstract:
Throughout the journey from infancy to childhood & from childhood to adolescence, there is an important person who takes care of good oral hygiene, is a pediatric dentist. Pediatric dentistry includes disciplines such as behavior guidance, care of the medically and developmentally compromised and differently able patients. Proper supervision and observation of orofacial growth and development is also part of pediatric dentistry. In addition caries prevention procedures, sedation, pharmacological management and hospital dentistry, as well as other traditional procedures are also part of pediatric dentistry. Good pediatric dental practice starts with proper brushing, patient education, diet counselling, motivation and by spreading positivity. In the beginning pediatric dentistry was mainly concerned with extraction and restorations of deciduous teeth. The trend changed from extraction to preservations. Prevention and concentrating on minimal invasive procedures are the present concept of pediatric dental practice. Any curative treatment provided should be minimally invasive, preferably nonsurgical and should conserve tooth structure as much as possible. In addition, an inadequate and unsatisfactory dental treatment during childhood can permanently damage the entire masticatory apparatus of the child leaving him with many dental problems commonly encountered in today’s adult population. Long lasting beneficial effects also can result when the seeds for future dental health are planted early in life (i.e. Childhood). Oral health needs of children have to be upraised

Abstract:
This paper describes the use of social pediatrics in one baccalaureate nursing curriculum. Social pediatrics is a conceptual model that considers health as physical health and the social determinants of health. Social pediatrics focuses on community-based primary healthcare services for at-risk children and their families. The social pediatrics model is used by community early childhood education StrongStart sites in one Canadian province; these sites are collaborations between early childhood educators and public health nursing teams for children from infancy through five years of age. Acute care clinical placements are becoming too complex and limited in number to accommodate large undergraduate nursing cohorts. Our undergraduate nursing program recently shifted acute care pediatric placements to StrongStart sites, combining community pediatric and public health nursing learning objectives and learning activities that foreground social pediatrics. The acute care component of pediatric nursing includes classroom theory, clinical laboratory and virtual simulations. This paper describes social pediatrics integration within our undergraduate curriculum between 2018-2019; and a qualitative evaluation of our social pediatrics approach in 2019-2020. We used content analysis to identify common themes from interviews with key actors, including students’ clinical instructors, StrongStart sites’ early childhood educators and managers, and public health nurse managers affiliated with StrongStart sites. Common themes were related to social pediatrics learning opportunities and drawbacks; social pediatrics knowledge, skills and attitudes; and recommendations for curriculum enhancement.

Abstract:
Medical research is heavily funded: the National Institutes of Health had a budget of over $20 billion in 2001, and even more money was spent by the pharmaceutical industry on research. Children's health issues, however, receive only a small fraction of these funds. In 2001, for example, less than $1 billion of NIH funding was allocated to the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD). In part, the problem stems from a modern predisposition to protect children from participating in research.Several federal policies in the 1990s changed the face of the “typical research subject.” Historically, researchers sought “white men,” but the NIH announced in 1994 that all research would need to include women and minorities, and in 1998, the NIH added the requirement of including children. The shift in policies reflects a shift in focus. When the National Commission for the Protection of Human Subjects of Biomedical and Behavioral Research addressed fairness in subject selection in the Belmont Report of 1979, the main concern was ensuring fairness in the distribution of risks.

Abstract:
The objective of this study was to investigate the extent to which vitamin D and K are associated with bone health in pediatric cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. We hypothesized that: (1) the prevalence of vitamin D and K deficiencies would be high despite routine vitamin therapy, (2) bone health would be reduced and (3) vitamin K and D status would be associated with bone health.
Our results showed poor bone mineral mass in these CF children despite mild disease and good nutritional status. Neither vitamin K nor D was a predictor of bone health but weight and height Z-scores, fat-free mass, physical activity and lung function were all consistent predictors.
These results indicate that nutritional status as well as physical activity are key determinants of bone health in CF children and offer a unique opportunity in the prevention of CF-related bone disease. Further vitamin intervention research needs to be done in this population.

Abstract:
(Thesis: M.A.)
In 2000, US Surgeon General David Satcher released a report on the severity of oral health disease in the high risk demographic. His grave report ushered in an era of oral health prevention programs utilizing a combination of education, mouth rinses, fluoride varnishes, dental sealants, and more invasive procedures. Given this wide range of acceptable treatment interventions available, the aim of this paper is to evaluate the effectiveness of certain treatments both by themselves and in tandem with one another on target high risk school age children. The first program we analyzed was a fluoride mouth rinse program based in North Carolina. While we found that although this program may have positive impacts on school age children in the future, it did not currently provide statistically significant benefits to these children. Access to Baby and Child Dentistry, a program in Washington State that used a multi-pronged prevention program involving education, fluoride varnishes, and glass ionomer sealants provided a much clearer benefit to reducing the overall dental caries experience in target school age children. Lastly, the ForsythKids Program, based in Massachusetts which utilized a comprehensive care model of caries prevention was shown to be effective in reducing the number of new caries in school age children. Their comprehensive care model consisted of providing the children with fluoride toothpaste, applying fluoride varnish, fitting glass ionomer sealants and temporary restorations. Armed with this information and based on a model involving four steps and two factors crucial in the successful implementation of an oral health prevention program, we hope to offer a foundation for future forays into both installing and maintaining an oral health prevention program.

Abstract:
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to describe children’s dental disease status and functional health literacy of families enrolled in the Child Health Investment Partnership program in Roanoke Valley. Methods: This was a prospective cohort study of children (n=166) enrolled in the Child Health Investment Partnership of Roanoke Valley, Virginia (CHIP). The parents of the 166 children completed the Life Skills Progression (LSP) survey at enrollment between September 2004 and September 2008 to assess their functional health literacy levels. Their LSP scores were used to determine their subsequent health care literacy (HCL), personal health literacy (PHL), and dental-child utilization (LSP22) scores. Descriptive statistics were recorded and a paired t-test was used to determine a relationship between the three measures of functional health literacy at baseline and at their most recent literacy assessment. Dental disease status was determined by an epidemiological dental exam and evaluated using d1d2-3f criteria. This was a visual exam that measured the presence of frank (d2-3) and non-cavitated carious lesions (d1), as well as filled teeth. Results: Descriptive analysis of the cohort reveals: 58% of the children enrolled had no carious teeth at the dental screening exam. The average mean of LSP scores for all three scales: HCL, PHL, and LSP22 were significantly different from baseline: p<.0001, p<.0009, and p<.0001, respectively. Conclusion: An improvement of parental functional health literacy has been documented in a low-income pediatric dental population when preventative efforts and education is delivered within the context of a home-visitation health program. The population of high-risk children had low levels of dental disease.

Abstract:

The purpose of this thesis was to investigate the impact of enteral nutrition (EN) support factors on days of mechanical ventilation (MV) and length of stay (LOS) in a pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) among subjects age 3 7 weeks to 21 years. Specifically, nutrition support factors included a) days to reach prescribed calories, b) days to reach prescribed protein, c) percentage of prescribed calories received, and d) percentage of prescribed protein received through the use of EN.

Purposive sampling was used to select subjects that received nutrition support in the PICU. Data was collected via chart review within the time frame January 1, 2011 to August 1, 2013.

The results demonstrated MV days and LOS were significantly different for patients who reached prescribed calories and protein within 72 hours of admission. LOS was also significantly different for patients who received at least 80% prescribed calories.

Abstract:
Primary care physicians (PCPs) often lack the skills to distinguish the common innocent Still’s murmur from far less frequent but potentially serious pathological heart murmurs. This leads to approximately 800,000 children being referred to pediatric cardiologists each year for evaluation of heart murmurs in the United States [1–2]. The murmur is ultimately diagnosed as an innocent Still’s murmur in approximately 78% of these children (Children’s National Health System data). These unnecessary referrals and associated tests cost the healthcare system over half a billion annually, and are a source of avoidable anxiety for children and families while waiting to see a pediatric cardiologist.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background: Nowadays, lack of children nutritional status fulfillment is still a problem experienced by developing countries, including Indonesia. The most nutritional problems among children in Indonesia are stunting and wasting. Stunting and wasting are indicators of growth disorders including cognitive impairment. This study aimed to analyzed the correlation between stunting, wasting, and children’s cognitive ability using Indonesia family Life Survey 2000-2014. Subjects and Method: This was a cross sectional study conducted using secondary data analysis of the 3rd, 4th, and 5th Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS). The study took place in June-July 2020. The study subjects were children aged 7-14 years amounting to 4781 children. The dependent variable was cognitive ability. The independent variables were stunting and wasting. The data obtained from IFLS was cleansed using STATA 15 and analyzed using multilevel logistic regression using SPSS 16.1. Results: The prevalence of stunting among children were 35.5%, wasting were 10.6%, and cognitive abilities below the average were 41.1%. Children who were not stunted were 1.33 times more likely to have cognitive abilities that matched or were above the average age of children (OR= 1.33; 95% CI= 1.18 to 1.50; p< 0.001). Children who did not experience wasting had 1.20 times the likelihood of having cognitive abilities that matched or were above the average age of children (OR= 1.33; 95% CI= 1.00 to 1.45; p< 0.001). Conclusion: Stunting and wasting are associate with children’s cognitive ability.

Abstract:
The incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) is commonly seen in critically ill children, the origins of which may be traced to a wide range of conditions such as inborn errors of metabolism, sepsis, congenital heart defects, bone marrow and organ transplantation, and to a lesser extent from multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) [1]. It is vital to provide a form of fluid and electrolyte clearance in these patients until native renal function improves. Nearly 3,600 critically ill children per year with acute kidney injury receive life-saving continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) in the United States. However, there is no CRRT device approved by the Food and Drug Administration for use in pediatric patients. Thus, clinicians unsafely adapt adult CRRT devices for use in the pediatric patients due to lack of safer alternatives. Complications observed with using adult adapted CRRT devices in children include hypotension, hemorrhage, thrombosis, temperature instability, inaccurate fluid balance between ultrafiltrate (UF) removed from and replacement fluid (RF) delivered to the patient, electrolyte disorders, and alteration of drug clearance. This research addresses this unmet clinical need through the design, mechanical and biological characterization of a pediatric specific Kidney Injury and Dysfunction Support (KIDS) CRRT device that provides high accuracy in fluid balance, reduces extracorporeal blood volume, and eliminates other problems associated with using adapted adult CRRT devices in children.

Abstract:
While medical options for children born with congenital heart defects include transplantation, the amount of available organs remains limited. This lack of donors led to the development of the National Institute of Health’s National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute Pediatric Circulatory Support Program. Contracts have been awarded to five teams with the task of creating novel support systems for children, ranging from 2 to 25 kg [1]. As part of this program, Penn State has developed a 12 cc pulsatile pediatric ventricular assist device (PVAD), based on the successful 70 cc Pierce-Donachy adult assist device. During the process of reducing the volume of the device for pediatric use, changes were made to the design including altering the angles of the inlet and outlet ports. Previous two-dimensional flow visualization in the PVAD by Manning et al. had shown that these changes led to an increased three-dimensionality of the flow, the influence of which required further investigation [2]. It is important to characterize the fluid dynamics of the flow field inside assist devices such as the PVAD because certain characteristics including high blood residence time, stagnant flow and wall shear rates below 500 s−1 can lead to an increased propensity of thrombus deposition [3,4].

Abstract:
In the past decade, American and Canadian pediatric societies have recommended that pediatric care clinicians follow a schedule of routine surveillance and screening for young children to detect conditions such as developmental delay, speech and language delays and disorders, and autism spectrum disorder. The goal of these recommendations is to ensure that children with these developmental issues receive appropriate referrals for evaluation and intervention. However, in 2015 and 2016, the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) and the Canadian Task Force on Preventive Health Care issued recommendations that did not support universal screening for these conditions. This occasional paper is designed to help make sense of the discrepancy between Task Force recommendations and those of the pediatric community in light of research and practice. To clarify the issues, this paper reviews the distinction between screening and surveillance; the benefits of screening and early identification; how the USPSTF makes its recommendations; and what the implications of not supporting screening are for research, clinical practice, and families.
