Excerpt

Vasovagal syncope (VVS) is the primary entity of neurally mediated syncope (NMS) in childhood, and its prognosis is usually considered benign. However, it is found in clinical practice that some children with VVS appear to have a frequent recurrence of syncope and poor response to treatment [1], which might seriously affect their quality of life [2]. In recent years, an increasing number of comorbidities of VVS have been reported. Liao et al. found that 31% of pediatric patients with NMS suffered from allergic disease [3], and Vallejo M reported that more than 50% of patients had headaches [4]. These comorbidities might make the clinical manifestations even more complex. However, until now, it has been unclear whether comorbidities are associated with the prognosis of children and adolescents suffering from VVS. Therefore, the present study was conducted to examine whether there is any impact of comorbidities on the prognosis of pediatric VVS to better understand the outcome and management of children and adolescents with VVS. …

Abdominale CT bei Kindern: 40% mit Zufallsbefunden

Wird bei Kindern mit stumpfem Trauma eine CT des Bauchraums veranlasst, sind in rund 40% der Fälle Auffälligkeiten zu sehen, die nichts mit dem Trauma zu tun haben. Die allerwenigsten davon sind klinisch relevant.

Steigende Zahl von Skorbut-Fällen bei Kindern

Eine Erkrankung, die eigentlich der Vergangenheit angehören sollte, scheint in reichen westlichen Nationen wieder häufiger aufzutreten: Seit der Coronapandemie steigt bei Kindern und Jugendlichen in Frankreich die Inzidenz von Skorbut.

Vermeidung negativer Appendektomie und übersehener Appendizitis

Die Diagnose einer akuten Appendizitis stellt insbesondere im Kleinkindes- und Kindesalter eine Herausforderung dar. Ein israelisches Forschungsteam hat nun negative Appendektomien sowie zunächst übersehene Appendizitiden, die erst bei einem zweiten Besuch in der Notaufnahme diagnostiziert wurden, genauer untersucht.

Gespräche über Behandlungswünsche am Lebensende

Mit Jugendlichen und jungen Erwachsenen, die an einer Krebserkrankung sterben werden, finden Gespräche über ihre Wünsche für die Versorgung am Lebensende oft nur selten oder gar nicht statt. Die Autoren einer aktuellen US-amerikanische Studie mahnen, die Bedeutung solcher Gespräche nicht zu unterschätzen.
