Women are at increased risk of trauma exposure and of experiencing prolonged posttraumatic stress. Maternal trauma exposure and associated impairment may adversely impact mother-infant interaction quality, which may in turn be associated with infant temperament difficulties. More research is needed to identify which maternal trauma predictors are most robustly related to infant temperament outcomes. The present study aimed to address this gap by examining maternal sensitivity as a mediator of relations between maternal trauma and infant temperament in a longitudinal study of a rural cohort of mother-infant dyads...

BACKGROUND: Childhood traumatic experiences may result in post-traumatic stress disorder. Although pediatricians are encouraged to address these traumas in clinical encounters, measures of childhood traumatic stress have not been adopted by primary care clinicians. In this study, we describe the feasibility and potential utility of the UCLA Brief Screen, a validated screener for childhood traumatic stress symptoms, in pediatric primary care clinics. METHODS: Children 6-17 years of age presenting for routine well-child care in community-based pediatric clinics were eligible for traumatic stress screening...

The Pennsylvania State University (PSU) Child Pump, a centrifugal continuous-flow ventricular assist device (cf-VAD), is being developed as a suitable long-term implantable device for pediatric heart failure patients between 10 and 35 kg, body surface area (BSA) of 0.5-1.2 m2, 1-11 years of age, and requiring a mean cardiac output of 1.0-3.5 L/min. In-vitro hydraulic and hemodynamic performances were evaluated on a custom mock circulatory loop with ovine blood. Normalized index of hemolysis (NIH) was evaluated under four conditions: 1) 8,300 rpm, 3...

BACKGROUND: Pediatric Emergency Department (PED) visits nationally decreased while the proportion of injury-related PED visits increased during the COVID-19 pandemic. Little is known about the trends in Rhode Island (RI). METHODS: This is a planned sub-analysis of RI data from a retrospective study of pediatric injury-related visits to 40 PEDs for children <18 years old from January 2019-December 2020. We calculated frequencies and compared patient demographics, injury types, severity, and mechanisms for 3/17/2019-12/31/2019 (pre-COVID-19) versus 3/15/2020-12/31/2020 (study period)...

AIM: Periapical cysts of primary teeth are pathologic entities which are seldom encountered in the clinical practice. Most frequently, these lesions arise in correspondence with primary teeth presenting previous pulp therapy, severe carious lesions, or a history of previous trauma. The aim of the present study is to systematically review the treatment modalities of periapical cysts of the deciduous, along with the reporting of a clinical case. MATERIALS: A case of periapical cyst treated with marsupialization occurring in an 11-year-old patient is described...

Pediatric corneal transplant is a highly demanding and technically challenging procedure for the cornea surgeon in today's era. These cases pose unique challenges in clinical and surgical management. The indications of pediatric corneal transplant can be therapeutic, tectonic, optical, and cosmetic. Pediatric patients undergoing corneal transplants are at a high risk of graft infection, failure, rejection, dehiscence, and amblyopia due to young age, robust immune system, increased incidence of trauma, and compliance issues...

BACKGROUND: Due to complex geography and resource constraints, trauma patients are often initially transported to community or rural facilities rather than a larger Level I or II trauma center. The objective of this scoping review was to synthesize evidence on interventions that improved the quality of trauma care and/or reduced healthcare costs at non-Level I or II facilities. METHODS: A scoping review was performed to identify studies implementing a Quality Improvement (QI) initiative at a non-major trauma center (i...

Background In pediatric dentistry, sedation aims to eliminate anxiety to facilitate the completion of dental procedures. Sedation in children is a multidimensional field that includes the child, parents/guardians, and the health care team. The rectal route is generally painless, making it suitable for children who are afraid of needles. This route has several advantages over the oral route, including reduced patient cooperation requirements, a faster and more predictable onset, and less physical trauma than the intravenous and intramuscular routes...

BACKGROUND: Identification of abdominal injury (AI) in children with concern for physical abuse is important as it can provide important medical and forensic information. Current recommendations are to obtain screening liver function tests (LFTs) in all children with suspected physical abuse and an abdominal computed tomography (CT) when the aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) is >80 IU/L. This threshold to obtain an abdominal CT is lower than general trauma guidelines which use a cutoff of AST > 200 or ALT >125 IU/L...

Peripheral vascular trauma (PVT) is rare in children, with an incidence estimated below 1%. We studied pediatric PVT and risk factors for major amputation by accessing the 2019 National Trauma Data Bank (NTDB). Demographics, injury type and location, trauma center capability, injury severity score (ISS), length of stay (LOS), and major amputation rates were evaluated. Statistical analysis included chi-square testing for categorical variables and t-tests for continuous variables. Of 130,554 pediatric trauma patients, 1196 (...

Introduction Hemophilia is an uncommon, X-linked recessive bleeding condition characterized by a lack of either factor VIII or factor IX. It is more prevalent in men. Due to the substantial impact inhibitor development has on patient prognosis, the primary treatment for hemophilia is the transfusion of recombinant factors. The aim of our study is to investigate 40 adult patients with hemophilia in terms of their clinical profile, clinically relevant risk factors for inhibitor development, therapy-related aspects such as treatment duration, factor requirements, transfusion frequency, presence of inhibitors, and complications...

Staphylococcus aureus infection is the most common cause of osteomyelitis. Over 100,000 fungal species have been described; only 150 are pathogenic to humans. These opportunistic infections frequently enter the body due to a decrease in host defense or through an invasive gateway, such as a dental extraction or skin discontinuity due to trauma. Symptoms and radiological examination often mimic those of other etiologies, which can lead to substantial delays in treatment. Our case is a 13-year-old healthy boy with no history of immune incompetency who presented to us with complaints of pain and swelling over his left ankle and leg with an on-and-off history of fever for 15 days...

Tibial tubercle avulsion fractures, though rare, pose a significant challenge in pediatric orthopedics, particularly in athletic adolescents. For nondisplaced fractures, conservative treatment involves the use of braces or casts, while displaced fractures necessitate operative intervention, often through screw fixation. Concomitant soft tissue injuries should also be identified and addressed operatively to ensure complete repair of the extensor mechanism. This paper introduces a method for open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) of tibial tubercle fractures with suture anchor repair of the distal patellar tendon avulsion...
