Background: Scabies is highly prevalent in children less than 6 years and more so in less than 2 years of age. Treating scabies in infants and children is challenging. The objective was to study the characteristics and distribution of lesions and outcome with topical Permethrin and Oral Ivermectin in scabies in children.Methods: 264 cases of scabies from the skin and pediatric outpatient of a tertiary care center were enrolled.Results: It is common in children below 5 years of age. The effectiveness of local Permethrin and oral Ivermectin was not significantly different in the form of complete cure.Conclusions: Children tend to scratch the rash repeatedly, the scratch marks and crusting of the rash sometimes make this infection hard to identify, hence high index of suspicion is required to diagnose. Complicated lesions in scabies require more duration than uncomplicated lesions. Permethrin and Ivermectin are equally effective in scabies. Ivermectin being orally administered is a drug of choice in epidemics.

In Infants And Children

The effectiveness of amplification for infants and children can be mediated by how much the child uses the device. Existing research suggests that establishing hearing aid use can be challenging. A wide range of factors can influence hearing aid use in children, including the child's age, degree of hearing loss, and socioeconomic status. Audiological interventions, including using validated prescriptive approaches and verification, performing on-going training and orientation, and communicating with caregivers about hearing aid use can also increase hearing aid use by infants and children. Case examples are used to highlight the factors that influence hearing aid use. Potential management strategies and future research needs are also discussed.
