Infusion Technique

Intraosseous infusion technique by paramedics in the prehospital setting was prospectively evaluated. Intraosseous access was successfully established in 16 of 17 pediatric patients with cardiopulmonary arrest. There were 13 successful first attempts with intraosseous access established within 1 minute. No significant complications occurred. In this study, the ease of establishing intraosseous access by paramedics in the field is documented.

Preoperative Chest

To assess the value of routine preoperative chest x-ray films in pediatric patients, a prospective study of 1,500 patients, ages newborn to 19 years, was undertaken. Of all the patients, 7.5% demonstrated at least one roentgenographic abnormality, with 4.7% of the patients demonstrating a totally unsuspected significant roentgenographic anomaly. In 3.8% of the patients, surgery was either postponed or cancelled or the anesthetic technique was altered as a result of the roentgenographic finding. It is believed that the routine preoperative chest film is justified if the film is evaluated before surgery and the results clinically followed up.

Introduction. Allergen-specific IgE (sIgE) testing provides an objective assessment of sensitization to an allergen. Goal. To identify the time when serum measurements of sIgE would be most sensitive. Methods. This was a prospective study conducted between September 1, 2015, and February 25, 2019. Subjects ≥5 and ≤18 years of age, seen in the ED or admitted with an asthma exacerbation, were tested for total IgE and 8 perennial sIgE levels. Subjects with elevated sIgE were tested again after symptom resolution. Results. A total of 104 subjects were enrolled; 50 subjects were eligible for inclusion in the analysis. There were statistically significant differences between the visits for all sIgE, except Alternaria alternatum. Conclusions. In pediatric patients, serum sIgE levels measured during an asthma exacerbation were elevated compared with when their asthma was in better control. sIgE testing during an asthma exacerbation may help identify asthma triggers, mitigate exposure, and hence improve asthma control.
