Following the very successful joint meeting in 1994 of the North American Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition (NASPGN) and the European Society of Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (ESPGHAN) in Houston, Texas, a feeling of growing unity among the international pediatric gastroenterology societies emerged. The concept of holding a World Congress of Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition, at which these societies could hold a combined meeting, spawned simultaneously in North and South Americas, Australia, Asia, and Europe. In 1995, the then Presidents of the four Societies, Ronald Sokol of NASPGN, Ulysses Fagundes-Neto of the Latin American Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition (LASPGN), Samy Cadranel of ESPGHAN, and Geoff Cleghorn of the Asian Pan Pacific Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition (APPSPGAN) began a series of meetings and discussions over the possibility that such a World Congress could be organized for ...

Since the last century, remarkable advances at both the basic and clinical levels have considerably improved our ability to evaluate and treat children with neurological disorders. Many cases seen by general pediatricians are primarily neurological accounting for up to 30% of all consultations to pediatrics with a high ratio of follow-up visits to new patients of about 3:1. This manual is a neurology reference for medical students and pediatric residents and is intended to supplement larger textbooks on pediatric neurology already available. Many of undergraduate medical students refer to deficient and oversimplified references that do not enable them to deal with pediatric neurology patients adequately. The manual presents a simplified, organized, and comprehensive problem based approach to common pediatric neurological disorders directed to the level of medical students, pediatric residents, general practitioners and general pediatricians. This e-book is thus a concise outline with practical ...

Title: Biomarkers for Oxidative Stress: Clinical Application in Pediatric Medicine. VOLUME: 14 ISSUE: 3. Author(s):Hirokazu Tsukahara. Affiliation:Department of Pediatrics, Faculty of Medical Sciences, University of Fukui, Fukui 910-1193, Japan.. Keywords:Antioxidants, biomarkers, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, nitric oxide, oxidative stress, pediatric medicine, reactive oxygen species, urine samples. Abstract: Loads of reactive oxygen species (ROS), including superoxide anion and nitric oxide, that overburden antioxidant systems induce oxidative stress in the body. Major cellular targets of ROS are membrane lipids, proteins, nucleic acids, and carbohydrates. Circumstantial evidence suggests that ROS play a crucial role in the initiation and progression of various diseases in children and adolescents. The involvement of ROS and oxidative stress in pediatric diseases is an important concern, but oxidative stress status in young subjects and appropriate methods for its measurement remain to be ...

The strategy of improving childrens health through training more and more pediatric clinicians can only be successful if two conditions are met. The first is that the new clinicians must selectively serve the populations in greater need. Unfortunately, the 24% growth in child health physicians per capita14 (pediatricians and 0.25 family practitioners per 100 000 age 0-17 years) in the past 10 years has not remedied the geographic disparities in distribution. There is a fivefold variation in the per capita supply of child health physicians (unpublished data from the Dartmouth Atlas Working Group that is available from authors). Regions with a notably high number of child health physicians per capita include San Francisco (162 per 100 000 age 0-17 years), Hackensack, New Jersey (144 per 100 000), and eastern Long Island (133 per 100 000). These rates are almost twice as high as Minneapolis (76 per 100 000) and Wichita (67 per 100 000), regions suggested as physician supply benchmarks.15-17 ...

Anorexia nervosa is a commonly encountered cause of severe underweight in paediatric settings that can cause potentially life-threatening physical and psychological complications.1 There is evidence to suggest that paediatricians lack knowledge and confidence in managing this condition; a survey of middle-grade doctors showed a low level of knowledge of several life-threatening features.2 It is, therefore, important that paediatricians are familiar with the key recommendations in this guideline on the assessment and management of sick patients under 18 with anorexia nervosa.. This guideline was published in January 2012 by the Junior MARSIPAN (Management of Really Sick Patients with Anorexia Nervosa) working group of the Royal College of Psychiatrists,3 and is endorsed by the Young Peoples Health Special Interest Group of the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health. It is intended to complement the Adult MARSIPAN guideline.4 The difference in (1) definition of anorexia nervosa in young ...

The World Health Organization (WHO) defines palliative care as the active total care of patients whose disease is not responsive to curative treatment. Control of pain, other symptoms, and psychological, social, and spiritual problems is paramount. Multiple perspectives, obtained through a variety of research methods, are necessary to provide a greater understanding of the whole person. The goal of palliative care is to achieve the best quality of life for patients and their families. In pediatric palliative care, where systematic knowledge development is only in its infancy, such perspectives become even more critical. This chapter identifies extant research in pediatric palliative care and suggests additional methods or approaches for gaining multiple perspectives.

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to provide an assessment of pediatric residency training in adolescent medicine. METHODS: We conducted 2 national surveys: 1 of pediatric residency program directors and the other of faculty who are responsible for the adolescent medicine block rotation for pediatric residents to elicit descriptive and qualitative information concerning the nature of residents ambulatory care training experience in adolescent medicine and the workforce issues that affect the experience. RESULTS: Required adolescent medicine topics that are well covered pertain to normal development, interviewing, and sexual issues. Those least well covered concern the effects of violence, motor vehicle safety, sports medicine, and chronic illness. Shortages of adolescent medicine specialists, addictions counselors, psychiatrists, and other health professionals who are knowledgeable about adolescents frequently limit pediatric residency training in adolescent medicine. Considerable variation exists

The FDA has taken a carrot-and-stick approach to encourage pediatric studies, says William Rodriguez, M.D., the FDAs science director for pediatrics. The carrot is the voluntary pediatric exclusivity provision of the Food and Drug Administration Modernization Act of 1997 (FDAMA), which was reauthorized in January 2002 and extended through 2007 as the Best Pharmaceuticals for Children Act (BPCA). The stick is the Pediatric Research Equity Act (PREA), which allows the FDA to require pediatric studies. Heres an overview of each initiative:. The Pediatric Exclusivity Provision of the BPCA. The pediatric exclusivity provision has done more to spur pediatric studies than any other regulatory or legislative initiative so far. The provision allows companies to qualify for an additional six months of marketing exclusivity if they do the studies in children as requested by the FDA..

There is an interesting exchange of letters in the current issue of the Journal of the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry between a prominent pediatrician and two psychiatrists regarding an article that recently appeared entitled Is There a Child Psychiatrist in the House? The pediatrician, William Carey, argues that pediatricians are well trained to manage such things as colic, sleep disturbances, toilet training and temper tantrums, perhaps more so than child psychiatrists. The authors of the original article reply that they are puzzled that Carey sees anything in the original article that threatens the role of the primary care clinician, and agree wholeheartedly with the proposed marriage. Carey quotes a prominent British pediatrician, probably Winnicott, saying many years ago that pediatrics and psychiatry have been living together long enough and its time we got married, if only for the sake of the children ...

Beginning in 2009, the American Board of Pediatrics offered a subspecialty certification exam for pediatricians in the United States to become board certified in Child Abuse Pediatrics.

For physicians to specialize in this area, they must complete medical school, a residency in general pediatrics and a three-year fellowship in child abuse pediatrics.. The American Council on Graduate Medical Education evaluates and accredits fellowship training programs to assure standardized training for physicians in each type of program.

Natural News) Have you ever questioned why todays children are receiving over 75 doses of vaccine, as recommended by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC)? The CDC, owning several vaccine patents, is the vaccine industry enforcement arm and policy guide for pedestrians and hospitals in the U.S. The CDCs childhood immunization schedule is so intense, pediatricians are now pushing shots for unborn babies still living inside their mothers. Forty-nine or more doses of vaccine are strongly recommended before a child reaches kindergarten age. State legislatures rapidly introduce new bills that try to restrict a parents rights when it comes to making medical decisions for their children. Every state has in place a legal framework that forces parents to either obtain a written medical, religious or philosophical exemption to vaccination in order for children to attend public learning institutions.. Medical choice and informed consent was once an inherent right of parents; now parents must seek ...

It looks like federal health officials are upping the ante in the high stakes chess game that industry, government and medical trade have been playing with the freedom of the American people for a long time. The long arm of the public health police is being felt already in states like Mississippi, West Virginia and California, which have eliminated vaccine exemptions, and forced vaccination lobbyists in dozens of other states are attacking exemptions protecting freedom of thought, conscience and religious belief. 5657 Pediatricians are being encouraged to become belligerent enforcers of vaccination and deny medical care to children, whose parents refuse to give them every one of the 69 doses of 16 vaccines CDC officials recommend. 58 5960 And nobody can forget the manufactured public health crisis in 2015, when a few cases of measles at Disneyland turned into a media feeding frenzy, with calls for doctors to be stripped of their medical licenses for criticizing vaccine safety and providing care ...

Adult Allergy Specialists are physicians who deal with a wide range of disorders including anaphylaxis, asthma, rhinitis, nasal polyposis, urticaria and angioedema (including hereditary angioedema), eczema, and allergy to food, drugs, latex rubber and venom. They run immunotherapy clinics, anti-IgE clinics, transition clinics for adolescents with allergic disease and food and drug challenge clinics. They also have the expertise to exclude allergy as a diagnosis, allowing the patient to receive the drugs they need or to proceed with other appropriate investigations.. Adult allergists are expected to have a good knowledge of paediatric allergy and in some cases adult allergists will also see children. However, because of the lack of allergy specialists the majority of uncomplicated allergy cases are treated by organ-based specialists, including chest physicians, ENT specialists, dermatologists, immunologists and general paediatricians. ...

The impact of designated trauma centers on pediatric outcomes continues to be researched. Several studies show improved survival and overall improved functional outcomes for injured children when initial evaluation and resuscitation occur at designated pediatric trauma centers.8-14 Other studies show no difference in survival for children cared for at adult trauma centers.15,16 Despite the differences in findings, most pediatric trauma patients must be initially evaluated and stabilized in nonspecialty centers until arrangements for transport to an appropriate facility is made for definitive care. Because of anatomic reasons, even seemingly benign mechanisms of trauma have the potential of producing severe injuries in infants and young children. ...

The European Union (EU) Paediatric Regulation requires that all new medicinal products applying for a marketing authorisation (MA) in the EU provide a paediatric investigation plan (PIP) covering a clinical and non-clinical trial programme relating to the use in the paediatric population, unless a waiver applies. Conducting trials in children is challenging on many levels, including ethical and practical issues, which may affect the availability of the clinical evidence. In scientifically justified cases, extrapolation of data from other populations can be an option to gather evidence supporting the benefit-risk assessment of the medicinal product for paediatric use. The European Medicines Agency (EMA) is working on providing a framework for extrapolation that is scientifically valid, reliable and adequate to support MA of medicines for children. It is expected that the extrapolation framework together with therapeutic area guidelines and individual case studies will support future PIPs. ...

Mongolian spots (also referred to as blue-gray macule of infancy) are the most frequently encountered birthmarks in neonates. Melanin-containing melanocytes in the dermis are present (migrational arrest) and the distinctive blue color, characteristic of dermal melanin, occurs as a result of the Tyndall effect (when light strikes the surface of the lesion, red wavelengths of light are absorbed and blue wavelengths are reflected back from the brown melanin pigment from the dermis). More than 95% of African American and 80% of Asian infants are born with Mongolian spots. The skin lesion is flat (macular), slate-gray, bluish-gray or brown, and consists of poorly circumscribed, single or multiple lesions ranging in size from a few millimeters to several centimeters. The most common location is the sacrum and buttocks (90%), but lesions may occur anywhere, including the back, shoulders, or flank. Mongolian spots fade gradually and are resolved by age 5 to 6 in about 96% of cases. Differential ...

Marthe Gautier (born 10 September 1925) is a French medical doctor and researcher, best known for her role in discovering the link of diseases to chromosome abnormalities. Marthe Gautier discovered a vocation for pediatrics at an early age. In 1942 she joined her sister Paulette who was about to complete her medical studies in Paris intending to become a pediatrician.

The Committee on Pediatric Emergency Medicine and the Section on Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine of the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) has released a clinical report on emergency pain and anxiety treatment in children. Relief of Pain and Anxiety in Pediatric Patients in Emergency Medical Systems appears in the November 2004 issue of Pediatrics and is available online at http://www.pediatrics.org.. Relief of pain and stress for children receiving emergency medical treatment is a vital, and readily available, component of care. Advances in the recognition and treatment of pain in children over the past 20 years have led to improved pain management for acutely ill and injured children. However, such care still lags behind adult pain management.. Severe pain and stress can have long-lasting implications for children. For example, a newborn infant who undergoes a procedure with inadequate pain relief may have permanent changes in his or her response to, and perceptions of, pain. ...
