Objective: To estimate the recommended lifespan of 223 peripheral intravenous accesses in pediatric services. Method: In this cohort study, we monitored the time of intravenous catheter between insertion and removal in children aged up to 15 years old in a Hospital from Bogotá-Colombia. The routine catheter observations was registered in questionnaires during nursing shifts. Survival analyses were performed to analyze the lifespan of the catheter free of complications. Results: The median lifespan of peripheral intravenous catheters without complications was 129 h (IQR 73.6–393.4 h). This median time free from complications was much lower for children ⩽1 year 98.3 h (IQR 63–141 h), than for participants aged >1 year 207.4 h (IQR 100–393 h). Catheters of 24 G (gauge) caliber had a median complication free time of 128 h (IQR 69–207 h) and 22 G calibers 144 h (IQR 103–393 h). Conclusions: In this study, 75% of peripheral indwell catheters remained free from complications for 74 h, the other extreme 25% of these patients could remain up to 393 h.

As a partially trained pediatrician in the Indian Health Service, interested in the Report of the Committee on Indian Health, I would like to add some personal observations: 1. The number of training deferments through CORD is determined by needs of the Department of Defense, to which pediatric services are not essential although a convenience. Because pediatric services are critical in Indian Health where the population is markedly skewed to younger ages, could not the Committee propose that, while the draft continues, pediatricians might choose their branch of service?

Пандемия новой коронавирусной инфекции продиктовала необходимость разработки и организации для сложившейся эпидемической обстановки мер по качественному оказанию специализированной детской онкологической помощи своевременно и в полном объеме, при этом важно обеспечить предупреждение заноса и распространения COVID-19 в специализированных подразделениях. Опыт работы региональной детской онкологической службы в Челябинской области показал, что даже в условиях пандемии можно ни на день не прекращать работу специализированного стационара, максимально сохранить центральный венозный доступ у контактных пациентов и свести к минимуму их потери по срокам программного лечения. Результат мог быть обеспечен только слаженной работой мультидисциплинарной команды, включившей администрацию, эпидемиологическую, выездную паллиативную, детскую онкологическую и участковую педиатрическую службы. The pandemic of a new coronavirus infection dictated the need to develop and organize, for the current epidemic situation, measures for the high-quality provision of specialized pediatric oncological care in a timely manner and in full, while it is important to prevent the introduction and spread of COVID-19 in specialized units. The experience of the regional pediatric oncological service in the Chelyabinsk region has shown that even in a pandemic, it is possible not to stop the work of a specialized hospital for a day, to preserve the central venous access in contact patients as much as possible and to minimize their losses in terms of program treatment. The result could only be ensured by the well-coordinated work of a multidisciplinary team that included administration, epidemiological, visiting palliative, children's oncological and district pediatric services.

In this issue of Pediatrics the article entitled "A New Design for Patient Care and Pediatric Education in a Children's Hospital: An Interim Report," by Green and Segar, represents a challenging approach to problems that are of increasing concern to pediatric educators and pediatric services of medical centers throughout the United States. It should be emphasized that the authors' plan is a proposed solution to the problems involved, and that the question as to whether it will constitute an answer will have to await analysis not only of their results but of the results of other approaches to the same problems.
