Abstract

Pediatric point-of-care ultrasonography (POCUS) has grown in utilization and is now an integral part of pediatric acute care. Applications within the pediatric critical care, neonatology and pediatric emergency were once limited to evaluation of undifferentiated shock states, abdominal free fluid assessments in trauma resuscitation and procedural guidance. The body of pediatric POCUS literature is ever expanding and recently published international consensus guidelines are available to guide implementation into clinical practice. The authors present a review of emerging applications and controversies within thoracic, hemodynamic, neurologic, and ocular POCUS in pediatric acute care medicine.

Wie gefährlich sind E-Zigaretten?

E-Zigaretten (Vaper) sind nicht harmlos – sie verführen zur parallelen Nutzung von E- und Tabakzigaretten (Dual Use) und machen das Rauchen für junge Menschen attraktiv u.a. aufgrund der vielfältigen Aromastoffe. Ein niedrigschwelliger Einstieg in die Tabakentwöhnung könnten digitale Anwendungen (DiGA) sein. 

ePA für Kinder und Jugendliche: Neue KBV-Richtlinie schafft Klarheit für Arztpraxen

Mit einer neuen Richtlinie will die Kassenärztliche Bundesvereinigung in Abstimmung mit dem Bundesministerium für Gesundheit Sorgen der Kolleginnen und Kollegen beim Umgang mit der Kinder-ePA ausräumen. Die Richtlinie gerät arg kurz – Pädiater und Pädiaterinnen reagieren dennoch zufrieden.

Weniger Bargeld, weniger Erstickungsnotfälle?

Dadurch, dass immer seltener mit Bargeld gezahlt wird, könnte die Rate an Erstickungsnotfällen bei Kindern zurückgehen. Dieser Hypothese ist ein britisches Forschungsteam in Klinikdaten aus den letzten zweieinhalb Jahrzehnten nachgegangen.

Pneumonie ausschließen: Auf das Röntgenbild ist offenbar Verlass

Das Thoraxröntgen ist gemäß Daten aus den USA eine zuverlässige Methode, um bei Kindern in der Notaufnahme rasch eine Lungenentzündung auszuschließen. Zur Vorsicht rät das Ärzteteam jedoch bei bestimmten klinischen Symptomen.
