Implementation of an electroencephalogram-guided propofol anesthesia practice in a large academic pediatric hospital: A quality improvement project
CONCLUSION: Quality improvement methods may be deployed to adopt electroencephalogram-guided total intravenous anesthesia in a large academic pediatric anesthesia practice. Keys to success include education, in operating room case training, scheduling teachers with learners, electronic health record modifications, and electroencephalogram devices and supplies.PMID:37962837 | DOI:10.1111/pan.14791 (Source: Paediatric Anaesthesia)

Pediatric influenza vaccination in the perioperative setting: A quality improvement project
CONCLUSIONS: Over three consecutive influenza vaccination seasons, we safely established and met vaccination rate goals of 10, 15, and 18% to eligible patients during preoperative clinic visits within a pediatric PSH system. Through iterative PDSA cycles, we continue to identify opportunities for future improvement. This suggests that the perioperative period presents opportunity for seasonal influenza vaccination with potential program expansion to include routine vaccines of childhood.PMID:37955042 | DOI:10.1111/pan.14790 (Source: Paediatric Anaesthesia)

Emergency front-of-neck access in infants: A pragmatic crossover randomized control trial comparing two approaches on a simulated rabbit model
CONCLUSIONS: The scalpel-bougie tracheotomy was slightly faster than the rapid-sequence tracheotomy and favored by participants, with fewer tracheal injuries. Therefore, we propose the scalpel-bougie tracheostomy as a rescue approach favoring the similarity to the adult approach for small children. The use of a comparable equipment kit for both children and adults facilitates standardization, performance, and logistics.TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT05499273.PMID:37950428 | DOI:10.1111/pan.14796 (Source: Paediatric Anaesthesia)
