COVID-19 vaccine response data in children 5 to 11 years old remain scarce. Our understanding of the safety and immune responses including humoral and cellular responses generated in children remains limited. Safety of the vaccine is critical in the risk benefit assessment of vaccination in young children. Available data show a trend for increased risk of myocarditis after second dose, especially in males and younger age groups. It is unknown if reduced antigen dose will alter this risk in 5y to <12y age group. Reassuringly, data from early roll-out in the USA have not reported any safety signals to date. Alternate (reduce dosing or delayed dosing) strategies could help ensure maximum protection with reduced risk of side-effects. There is currently no data available to inform how long protection would last in the reduced dose or delayed dosing strategy. The trial will inform the potential use of alternate dosing schedules such as single dose or delayed dose to minimise risk and maximise benefit of COVID-19 vaccination in children 5 to 11 years old.
This is a pilote monocentric prospective study about pediatric peritonitis and antibiotics pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic. The investigators will include 41 patients between 3 and 17 years-old during 2 years in the University Hospital of Nancy. The aim of this study is to determine if the beta-lactam dosages in children recommended by the guidelines for management of intra-abdominal infections permitted the achievement of adequatly serum and peritoneal concentrations in the medical and surgical management of peritonitis. The investigators will collected serum and peritoneal fluid samples at 3 different times: peritoneal incision, end of surgery, 2 days and 5 days after surgery in order to compare the concentrations and the minimal inhibitor concentration of bacteria. The hypothesis is that of a serum and peritoneal antibiotic under dosage.
The investigators hypothesize peripheral intravenous cannulation (insertion of tube into vein) will be facilitated (decreases the number of attempts) by a passive leg raise (raising the legs at the hip to 45 degree in a child laying on their back) in children.
Becoming a parent is a life-changing event that can be both gratifying and stressful. As a parent, one is responsible for another person, where there sometimes is a need for new information, knowledge, and advice to live up to the new requirements that a changing family situation requires. The objective of this study is to develop and evaluate a new digital channel in child health care for support of parents in child health care issues with particular focus on eHealth literacy and satisfaction with care. An intervention is planned to run over eight months and will be evaluated in an intervention- and control group (from another health care centre) at baseline, 4 months and at 8 months follow-up. Data includes interviews and questionnaires about parental stress and eHealth literacy as well as satisfaction with care. Data will be analysed with qualitative and statistical methods. Expected outcomes is reduced parental stress and increased satisfaction with child health care.
The baseline infusion rate during surgery for pediatric patients still is the 'Holliday and Segar' rule (also known as the 4/2/1 rule) The question arises if this rule is not outdated, since it was calculated based on the caloric need of the pediatric population, calculated for cow milk. The study tends to validate the use of bio impedance measurements for registering fluid shifts in the pediatric surgical patients.
The latest data indicate that post COVID-19 condition is frequent in children and adolescents, with the most common symptoms being fatigue, shortness of breath, exercise intolerance and weakness. Evidence that COVID-19 can have significant long-term effects on children's health highlights the need for measures to reduce the impact of the pandemic on children, ensuring that they receive appropriate treatments. Those experiencing post COVID-19 condition require more tailored exercise-related advice and improved support to be able to resume activities important to their individual well-being. To the best of our knowledge, no studies have yet addressed the issue of exercise programs for children with post COVID-19 condition. The aim of this study, therefore, is to evaluate the effectiveness of different interventions on pulmonary function, exercise capacity, fatigue and quality of life in children with post COVID-19 condition. This will be a randomized controlled study with pre and post intervention assessment. Children will be recruited from primary schools and primary health care units in Warsaw. Participants meeting the inclusion criteria will be randomized to one of 3 groups: water-based exercise, land-based exercise or control (no exercise). The water-based and land-based exercise groups will be held twice a week, 45 min per session for 8 weeks. Participants will be assessed at baseline and immediately post-intervention in terms of changes in pulmonary function, exercise capacity, fatigue and quality of life. Research outcomes will build the evidence-based practice for health professionals.
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of toy-type nebulizers on fear and anxiety in children receiving inhaler therapy. The research hypotheses are as follows: H0: There is no significant difference between the intervention group and the the control group in the mean score of the "Child Fear Scale" and "Child Anxiety Scale-State" during and after the inhaler treatment with a toy-type nebulizer. H1: During and after the s inhaler treatment with the toy-type nebulizer, the mean score of the "Child Fear Scale" and "Child Anxiety Scale-State" is significantly higher in the intervention group compared to the control group.
Background: If disorders that occur immediately after a trauma are not treated, they may become chronic and turn into severe health problems. Objectives: This study was conducted with children who had spent time in an intensive care unit and their parents to examine the development of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in both children and parents. Methods: The study was a cross-sectional study. A total of 110 children, 98 mothers and 80 fathers were included in the study.
The study was designed as a randomized controlled experimental research with the purpose of determining the effect of distraction by using external cold and vibration-Buzzy and VR on reducing procedural pain and anxiety in children aged 7 to 12 years during phlebotomy injection.
