Public Mental Hospital

The number of children in state mental institutions is inevitably increasing. At the same time it is increasingly difficult to generate enough staff adequate for caretaking, training, and supervision. There are no instant solutions to this problem; no hidden panaceas that might make it right soon. Hoping for some partial help, it makes sense to review the place of the pediatrician in the state mental hospital and the hospital's traditional sources for program design as well as staff training and supervision. Such hospitals were designed for adults. In addition, they both benefit and suffer from a massive tradition and inertia.

Rhabdomyoma represent a rare cardiac tumor often associated with tuberous sclerosis however is often remains asymptomatic with a regressive pattern of evolution throughout childhood. We report a rare case of an infant of 1 year old from a uneventful pregnancy and delivery,with normal developmental milestones, whose mother noticed two episodes of brief period of loss of consciousness and muscle tone upon pediatric consultation clinical examination reveal a conscious child able to stand without support with hypopigmented skin lesion a CT scan revealed periventricular calcifications with subcortical intraparenchymal hypodense plaque an EEG without signs of epileptic pattern EKG didn’t reveal signs of arrythmias and transthoracic echogardiogram showing multiple hyperechogenic homogenous tumors one attached to the interventricular septum with intermittant left ventricular outflow tract obstruction due to motion second near to the tricuspid valve with no signs of obstruction and a third attached to the free wall of the right ventricle. Tuberous sclerosis was retained as a diagnosis with rhabdomyoma and the management was based on regular cardiac monitoring with marked regression of tumor size and no recurrence of syncope episodes.

Evidence Based Guidelines

Infantile colic is a common disturbance occurring in the first three months of life. It is a benign condition and one of the main causes of pediatric consultation in the early part of life because of its great impact on family life. Some pediatricians are prone to undervalue this issue and there is no consensus concerning management and treatment. In literature are growing evidences about the effectiveness of dietary, pharmacological, complementary and behavioral therapies as options for the management of infantile colic. Dietary approach is based on the avoidance of cow’s milk proteins in breast-feeding mothers and bottle-fed infants. Currently pharmacological agents over the counter or by prescription are not recommended because of reported side effects. There is limited evidence supporting the use of complementary and alternative treatments (herbal supplements, manipulative approach and acupuncture) or behavioral modification interventions. Recent studies have partially clarified the pathogenesis of this disturb and so new treatments, such as probiotics, have been proposed. Further investigations are needed in order to provide evidence-based guidelines.
