Enzyme Delivery

For children with cystic fibrosis (CF), enzymes are essential with meals to absorb nutrients and ensure adequate growth. When hospitalized, CF patients typically rely on nurse-administered medications. Recently, a pediatric hospital unit began allowing adolescents with CF enzymes at the bedside. Postimplementation, a satisfaction questionnaire was administered to participating patients and nurses measuring patient and nurse satisfaction with access to bedside enzymes versus nurse administration and overall time for enzyme delivery. The survey utilized a 5-point Likert scale. The wait time for pancreatic enzymes decreased for self-administered enzymes when compared to those that were nurse administered. All (11/11) patients and 86% (12/14) of nurses preferred the self-administration of enzymes. Hospitalized pediatric CF patients and nurses had higher levels of satisfaction with enzyme self-administration. Immediate access to enzymes in room safes impact patient autonomy, reflecting home self-care practices. Decreases in wait times optimize nutritional growth and healing while hospitalized. As a result, a new limited scope policy allowing patient-administered enzymes is now in place in the pediatric inpatient CF unit.

The objective of this analysis was to identify variables associated with treatment response in subjects with migraine. Data were collected from a sample of 10 000 subjects. A battery of questionnaires assessing clinical and psychological variables was completed. Migraine diagnosis was attributed using an algorithm based on the IHS criteria and treatment response using the ANAES criteria. We identified 1534 subjects, of whom 1443 were treated. For 54.2%, at least one ANAES criterion for treatment response was unfulfilled. Non-response was associated with female gender, high HIT-6 impact scores and high HAD psychological distress scores. The strongest associations with non-response were identified for four psychological variables: elevated scores on the CSQ catastrophization subscale and the ‘Consequences’ and ‘Acceptance’ dimensions of the Brief COPE, and low scores on the ‘Positive Reinterpretation’ Brief COPE dimension. In conclusion, many individuals with migraine respond inadequately to treatment. Behavioural interventions aimed at modifying coping strategies may improve outcome.

Background: To survey for evaluation the use of antibiotic for diarrhea treatment on pediatric inpatient in compliance with MOH, WHO or treatment regimen. Objectives: (1) To describe the situation of antibiotic use for diarrhea treatment and (2) to determine factors that affected on indication of antibiotic for pediatric inpatient under 15 years at Kien Giang General Hospital in 2019. Subjects and methods: A cross-sectional study on 251 medical records of pediatric inpatients who treated by one of any drug from 01/2019 to 12/2019. Results: one antibiotic was prescribed in 71.7% in comparison with 17.1% on two antibiotics. The antibiotic prescription was based on the results of blood test including examinations of white blood cells (WBC), the percentage of neutrophils (Neu%) and/or C-reactive protein (CRP) (59.4%), stool with white blood cells and/or red blood cells (1.6%), high fever without causes (27.9%), watery stool (86.3%), loose stool with blood (100%), loose stool (97.9%). The most used antibiotics are ceftriaxone (53.4%), ciprofloxacin (12.4%). Duration of antibiotic use is 5 days in median. Conclusion: The rate of antibiotic prescription that met MOH and WHO guidelines was 88.3% in comparison with 11.7% of non-conformance. The compliance prescriptions based on antibiogram were 77.8%, non-compliance were 22.5%. The compliance dosage refered to guideline was 86.4%, non-conpliance was 2.4%. The duration of hospitalization and neutrophil are factors that affected the use of antibiotics (p < 0.05).

High Quality Service

Community-wide planning of hospitals and related facilities in a metropolitan area helps to translate the miracles of modern medical science into high quality service for all at reasonable cost. Community-wide planning for children's inpatient services should encourage grouping of small segregated pediatric units in which most children receive care today. These small units interfere with provision of high quality, comprehensive care and are wasteful of scarce personnel and dollars. Experts should agree upon the minimum size unit in which effective care can be provided; this minimum would obviously be much larger than most units in existence today. To achieve this minimum, most general hospitals should affiliate with major general hospitals or children's medical centers at which their pediatric inpatient facilities could be grouped into a few large units. The children's medical centers should take leadership in exploring the feasibility and nature of such affiliations of which the key element is the medical staff relationship. Such affiliations are consistent with and conducive to valid objectives of children's medical centers: leadership in promotion of child health, child care, education and research. Failure of children's medical centers to develop such affiliations may have dire consequences in the long run.
