Featured statements

NASPGHAN and European counterparts recommend screening endoscopy at 10 years of age for esophageal atresia patients, whether or not they're on anti-reflux medications
guideline · Peritoneal Dialysis Access
NASPGHAN guidelines recommend screening endoscopy in early adulthood for esophageal atresia patients, and then every 5 to 10 years for adults
guideline · Peritoneal Dialysis Access
On thromboelastography, if R time is abnormal, the patient needs FFP. If alpha angle is abnormal, administer cryoprecipitate. If maximum amplitude is abnormal, give platelets. If LY30 shows excessive fibrinolysis, give aminocaproic acid or tranexamic acid
clinical · Obesity
The problem occurs because insufflation tubing contains air with nitrogen, which is not soluble in blood, unlike carbon dioxide. It's like the baby gets the bends when you insufflate all that air

PDC 2020 Practice Gaps

Statement In the last 40 years, the prevalence of obesity has gone to over 18% of children worldwide Open
Statement Kids who are obese and receiving therapy for DVT require closer monitoring of their enoxaparin levels because they can have altered drug metabolism due to obesity Open
Statement A significant number of children with repaired esophageal atresia will have esophageal metaplasia or Barrett's esophagus, and symptoms often do not correlate with pathology Open
Statement The most likely cause of cardiac arrest during laparoscopy in neonates is pneumopericardium from extraperitoneal insufflation Open
Quotation If this happens to you, it's so traumatic, you're probably not going to sit down and write a case report about it Open
Statement End-tidal CO2 is the most sensitive detector of a gas embolism during laparoscopic surgery Open
Statement The problem occurs because insufflation tubing contains air with nitrogen, which is not soluble in blood, unlike carbon dioxide. It's like the baby gets the bends when you insufflate all that air Open
Statement Prevention strategies include turning gas on and flushing tubing of air before connecting it to the patient, which decreases the amount of nitrogen and air delivered Open
