Filter by:This study is a prospective randomized controlled trial comparing the clinical outcomes of bioabsorbable screws to conventional metal screws in pediatric patients (aged 0 to 18) undergoing surgical fixation for trauma or elective procedures. Conducted by the pediatric orthopedic department at Children's Hospital New Orleans, the study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of these screws in bone healing over key post-operative intervals (6 weeks, 6 months, and 1 year). It seeks to determine if bioabsorbable screws offer significant advantages over metal screws in terms of reducing the need for secondary surgeries, based on their hypothesized noninferiority in complication rates. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either bioabsorbable or metal (titanium or stainless steel) screws after obtaining informed consent from a parent or guardian.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and PK of aficamten in a pediatric population with symptomatic obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (oHCM).
A prospective, multicenter, randomized clinical trial in two tertiary pediatric emergency department. It will assess, amongst pediatric healthcare teams, whether the use of augmented reality supportive devices improves adherence to American Heart Association (AHA) advanced life support guidelines and performance, while reducing medication errors, when compared to groups using the AHA pocket reference card (control) during standardized, simulation-based, pediatric in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) scenarios. Seventy participants will be randomized. The primary endpoint is the time to first dose of epinephrine.
Given the scarcity of studies aimed at assessing the effect of anesthesia and m ventilation on the distribution of lung ventilation in pediatric patients undergoing surgery, with the exclusion of thoracic surgery, the present prospective observational study would shed the light on ventilation practice in pediatric anesthesia for surgery. This study wold fill the actual gap allowing the evaluation, through electrical impedance tomography (EIT) of the distribution of lung ventilation across the different phases of anesthesia for pediatric surgery. These insights could contribute to improve clinical practice and research in the management of ventilation in pediatric patients undergoing anesthesia for surgery.
As an invasive operation, gastroscopy will cause children's nervousness, anxiety and uncooperative behavior, and even lead to the risk of bleeding and perforation, which will also affect the accuracy of the examination results.The purpose of this study is to explore the influence of different doses of esketamine on the induced dose ED95 of remazolam during gastroscopic placement in children, and to provide theoretical basis for the combined use of remimazolam besylate and esketamine in gastroscopic anesthesia in children.
This study aims to demonstrate that the application of nebulized dexmedetomidine to patients during pediatric upper gastrointestinal endoscopic procedures will significantly reduce the gag reflex and enhance both patient and practitioner comfort
The patient's body weight is often taken as a basis when calculating drug doses and determining equipment sizes for pediatric patients presenting to the emergency department. The methods used to determine body weight are the family's estimated weight, formulas for estimating weight according to age, or the Broselow band used to estimate weight according to height. Weight estimates that are incomplete compared to the child's actual body weight lead to medication errors, wrong material selection and prolongation of the procedure, resulting in increased mortality and morbidity.
Retrospective analysis of specific characteristics of complications and long-term oncological and function outcomes in lower-limb osteosarcoma pediatric patients.
The goal of this observational study is to determine the micronutrient levels in patients in the Pediatric Palliative Care Clinic. The main question it aims to answer are: • What is the frequency of micronutrient deficiencies in pediatric palliative care patients?
Due to the incomplete development of systems and low pain thresholds in the pediatric population, good general anesthesia is required during the perioperative period to ensure the smooth progress of the surgery.Propofol is often used for anesthesia induction in clinical work, which can achieve good anesthesia effects. However, this drug has obvious injection pain and is prone to significant inhibition of blood circulation, and may even lead to adverse conditions such as respiratory depression in children. For the pediatric population, maintaining appropriate anesthesia depth and stable circulation during the induction period of general anesthesia has always been a focus of attention and research by anesthesiologists.Remimazolam besylate is a new type of water-soluble ultra short acting benzodiazepine drug that is hydrolyzed and metabolized by plasma esterase in the body, independent of liver and kidney function, and the metabolite zolam propionic acid has no pharmacological activity; Rapid onset and failure, short sedation recovery time; Has little impact on respiration and circulation; And there is no injection pain.Remazolam besylate is highly suitable for children due to its characteristics, and some studies have demonstrated the safety of intravenous injection of Remazolam besylate. However, there is limited research on its dosage exploration, which to some extent limits its clinical application in children.This study aims to explore the 95% effective dose (ED95) of single intravenous injection of remidazolam besylate in children of different age groups, providing a theoretical basis for the use of remidazolam besylate in pediatric anesthesia.
