Hello, pediatric surgery family.

2
00:00:18,340 --> 00:00:22,120
I'm Em Gootee from Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center.

3
00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:31,600
Today, our team is going to deliver the articles that you should know about.

4
00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:33,960
As always, we have three papers today.

5
00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:39,680
Two of them are from the Journal of Pediatric Surgery and one of them is from JAMA Surgery.

6
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:48,160
We don't have much time, so let's start.

7
00:00:48,160 --> 00:00:53,720
Our first paper titled Enhanced Recovery After Surgery or ERAS, Society Recommendations for

8
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:57,940
Neonatal Perioperative Care by Pilkington et al.

9
00:00:57,940 --> 00:01:02,680
This paper is summarized by Lizzy Lee, a physician associate by profession and a member of our

10
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:10,680
team here at Cincinnati Children's, dedicated to creating content for pediatric surgery.

11
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:16,360
The ERAS or the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery Society used a modified Delphi technique,

12
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:20,680
which is a fancy way of saying that a multidisciplinary group of experts gathered together to reach

13
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:23,440
more than a 70% consensus.

14
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:27,000
Their goal was to develop recommendations that NICUs can use to take care of the newborns

15
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:31,560
during and after surgery, focusing on the needs that they have when they are undergoing

16
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:33,680
different types of surgeries.

17
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:35,040
So what did they come up with?

18
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:40,040
They agreed on 16 recommendations covering 11 topics like team communication, pre-surgery

19
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:43,440
fasting, temperature control, and antibiotic use.

20
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:48,080
However, they did not have enough data to make recommendations about things like nasogastric

21
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:50,120
tubes and central lines.

22
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:55,040
These new guidelines will help improve care for NICU patients undergoing surgery.

23
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,680
Great!

24
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:02,040
Let's hear our second paper, Transition from Pediatric to Adult Health Care for Colorectal

25
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:06,120
Conditions, a systematic review by Moore et al.

26
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,240
And this paper is summarized by Alex Halpern.

27
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:12,320
He is a research fellow at Children's National and collaborates with us to produce these

28
00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:15,640
article reviews.

29
00:02:15,640 --> 00:02:20,280
The team from Melbourne, Australia performed a systematic review and meta-analysis trying

30
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:21,600
to answer this question.

31
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,160
They found 8 studies on this topic.

32
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:28,520
These studies agreed that transitional care should start early in adolescence and found

33
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:33,840
little evidence that this transfer is happening in a coordinated or timely fashion.

34
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,880
No models of transition care were identified.

35
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:41,880
So it seems like more work is needed to ensure that these children with anorectal malformations

36
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:51,080
and Hirschbren's disease continue to receive optimal care as they grow older.

37
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:55,640
Now moving to the last paper of the day, Clinical Symptoms Affect Treatment and Prognosis in

38
00:02:55,640 --> 00:03:01,280
Pediatric Patients with Congenital Pulmonary Airway Malformation, or CPAMP, a propensity

39
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:05,600
score matching retrospective cohort study by Zeng et al.

40
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,120
This paper is summarized by Cecilia Gijena.

41
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:12,120
She is one of the previous research fellows at Cincinnati Children's.

42
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:18,800
This is a retrospective study that aimed to investigate the safety and efficacy of surgical

43
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:21,920
treatment for asymptomatic symptoms.

44
00:03:21,920 --> 00:03:28,080
They had 110 patients and what they found is that patients that underwent surgery before

45
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:35,200
they became symptomatic had shorter length of stay, shorter mechanical ventilation after

46
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:41,680
surgery and shorter operating times, with no significant difference in conversion or

47
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,080
post-op complications.

48
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:49,400
So it seems that it's safer to operate these patients before they become symptomatic.

49
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:53,560
Thank you for listening.
