Abstract

Although thyroid medications are frequently prescribed during pregnancy, paediatricians treating the respective neonates often have no information about the underlying maternal thyroid disease, and inconsistencies in postnatal diagnostics may result. We analysed a cohort of 1819 mothers admitted for delivery in 1 year to one hospital. We analysed the pre- and postpartum diagnostics in the mothers, the postnatal diagnostics in the neonates and their postnatal auxological development. Two hundred thirteen mothers (11.7%) had “thyroid disease”; 37 (2.0%) had Hashimoto thyroiditis, seven (0.4%) Graves’ disease and 169 (9.3%) “thyroid disease of other origins”. One hundred eighty-eight out of 213 (88%, 10.3% of the entire cohort) took levothyroxine. Pre- and postpartum diagnostics of the mothers and postnatal diagnostics of the neonates revealed striking inconsistencies. For example, 39 % of the gynaecologists routinely determined TSH, while only 59% carried out a dosage adjustment for known hypothyroidism. Second specialists were consulted in 86%. Unnecessary postpartum diagnostics were initiated in 19/213 neonates (9%). TRAb was analysed, however, in only one neonate born from the mothers with Graves’ disease—a condition in which further diagnostic efforts are mandatory.
Conclusion: Although many pregnant women have thyroid dysfunction, we observed a lack of uniformity in the diagnostic approach of the women and their neonates.
What is Known:
Disturbed maternal thyroid function in pregnancy often has an adverse impact on both the mother and the foetus.
Although detailed guidelines for managing impaired maternal thyroid function during pregnancy have been published, their application in clinical practice varies widely.
What is New:
Recommendations for managing the newborn of a mother presenting with thyroid disease of unknown entity are remarkably inconsistent.
This leads to a possible over-diagnosis in general and a potentially life-threatening failure to note neonatal hyperthyroidism requiring rapid treatment.

Neu im Fachgebiet Pädiatrie

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.

Hohe Atrophierate nach Hodentorsion im Kindesalter

Auf längere Sicht ist die Atrophierate nach einer Hodentorsion pädiatrischer Patienten erschreckend hoch. Das hat eine Studie mit jahrelanger Nachbeobachtung ergeben. Entscheidend ist die Zeit, die bis zur Detorsion verstreicht.
