Abstract

Purpose of Review

Cholestasis is a common disorder in pediatric hepatology with a wide variety of causative etiologies. The presentation of jaundice can be frightening. Several therapies are time sensitive, and a prompt diagnosis may improve outcomes. The purpose of this paper will be to review the etiology, diagnosis, and complications of cholestasis in children and to discuss current recommendations for the management of pediatric cholestasis.

Recent Findings

Medical management of pediatric cholestasis has traditionally been supportive, with care centered on nutrition, growth, and treatment of pruritus. The approval of new therapies for pruritus has changed the approach to disease management in certain diseases. Referral to a transplant center when there is advanced disease or significantly impaired quality of life remains important.

Summary

There are many facets to pediatric cholestasis and attention to ameliorating the complications commonly associated with them requires subspecialized care.

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.

Kawasaki-Syndrom: Kein ASS mehr in der Akutphase?

Um Kinder mit Kawasaki-Syndrom vor entzündlich bedingten Veränderungen der Koronarien zu bewahren, werden sie in der Akutphase mit intravenösen Immunglobulinen und hochdosierter Acetylsalicylsäure (ASS) behandelt. Neuesten Daten zufolge könnte womöglich auf ASS verzichtet werden.

Neurologische Entwicklung von Kindern: Welchen Einfluss hat Stillen?

Stillen bringt zahlreiche gesundheitliche Vorteile mit sich. Ob dazu auch ein niedrigeres Risiko für Entwicklungsverzögerungen und -störungen gehört, hat nun eine israelische Studie untersucht.
