I forgot what a good attitude adjustment a visit to #pediatric #cardiology is.
It's also a great exercise for #ComplexityWranglers , with all the interconnecting systems and levels of abstraction. I would love to know if anyone has compared Stanford to Boston children's.
I have my own theories as to why they differ in the way they handle user experience.

How convenient that there are so many things you can blame your child's new neurological symptoms or chronic fatigue on

Shouldn't it be *less* comforting that an airborne virus has joined that milieu? Have you started kidding yourself that one thing isn't a risk just because so many other things are?

The second you feel overwhelmed, that is the *truth of your world* leaking in. Gotta process that shit

Hey #ADHD #AttentionDefecit #Psychiatry #Pediatric Mastodon any resources for deprescribing stimulants? (And a related question: transitioning between stimulants?).

All we’ve come across so far is the antipsychotic algorithm from deprescribe.org which is kinda/kinda not applicable.

Safety and Immunogenicity of #SARSCoV2 #Recombinant Spike Protein #Vaccine in #Children and #Adolescents in India: A Phase 2-3 Randomized Clinical Trial | Vaccination | JAMA Pediatrics | JAMA Network https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamapediatrics/fullarticle/2807909 “SII-NVX-CoV2373 was safe and well tolerated in children and adolescents in this study. The vaccine was highly immunogenic and may be used in #pediatric #vaccination against COVID-19.”

Out of 31 studies worldwide (including preprints) that assessed "more than 20 persistent symptoms and clinical features" among 15,000 children and adolescents, as of December 2022, 16% suffered at least 1 symptom at least 3 months after infection (Pediatrics, 2023)

20‑Valent #Pneumococcal Conjugate #Vaccine: #Pediatric First Approval

📌20‑valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV20; Prevnar 20®; Apexxnar®) is a pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) for active immunization for the prevention of pneumococcal infections.

📌PCV20 has a similar structure and formulation to PCV13, with the addition of polysaccharides to target seven further S. pneumoniae serotypes (8, 10A, 11A, 12F, 15B, 22F and 33F).

Having a great time this week at the annual Canadian Orthopaedic Association meeting in Calgary! It's an honour to present work on shape modelling of femurs with late-stage Perthes' disease deformity, and the input from surgeons has been fantastic.

Epidemiology, clinical aspects, and management of #pediatric #drowning

📌 The prevention strategies should be broad

📍education regarding potential risks associated with swimming for children with epilepsy or channelopathies

📍use of multiple layers of safety barriers, such as pool fencing, pool covers, and water entry alarms

📍importance of adult surveillance, lifeguard’s role, and the development of strategies, such as swimming and survival skills training.

“and among 99,105 children aged 0-1 year, the overall risk was 7.90% for those with prior COVID-19 infection, higher than 5.64% for matched children without (RR: 1.40, 95% CI: 1.21-1.62). These data provide evidence that COVID-19 contributed to the 2022 surge of severe #pediatric RSV cases.”
