Therapeutic cardiac arrest as an adjunct to resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta: Bridging the gap from fatal hemorrhage to definitive surgical control in swine
CONCLUSION Adenosine-lidocaine-magnesium is a novel therapeutic, which, when used with REBOA, can significantly decrease the amount of blood loss at initial presentation, without compromising survival. This study provides proof of concept for ALM and its ability to bridge the gap between patient presentation and REBOA placement.

Intravenous magnesium therapy in adult patients with an aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Conclusion: We identified a benefit in the role of magnesium to reduce the incidence of cerebral vasospasm in patients with an aneurysmal SAH. However no benefit was found regarding improved favourable functional outcome or a reduction of mortality.

Near death by central line
A 67-year-old man presented to Emergency Department with acute epigastric pain, tachycardia and hyperamylasaemia. The provisional diagnosis of acute pancreatitis was made and a femoral central line was inserted for fluid resuscitation. One hour later, the patient had a sudden witnessed ventricular fibrillation arrest (2 min duration) necessitating cardiopulmonary resuscitation, cardiac defibrillation and intravenous adrenaline administration. He was intubated and started on intravenous amiodarone and magnesium infusion. An urgent CT of abdomen and pelvis with intravenous contrast demonstrated peripancreatic inflammato...

Pediatric urolithiasis in a non-endemic country: A single center experience from The Netherlands
Conclusion: Children with urolithiasis in The Netherlands show stone composition similar to other Western European countries. However, a high percentage of metabolic abnormalities (78%) was found, indicating the need for extensive evaluation of pediatric urolithiasis to find underlying causes and thereby prevent stone recurrences. A close collaboration between a pediatric nephrologist and urologist is mandatory for optimal surgical and medical treatment.

Implementation of Clinical Decision Support Rules to Reduce Repeat Measurement of Serum Ionized Calcium, Serum Magnesium, and N-Terminal Pro-B-Type Natriuretic Peptide in Intensive Care Unit Inpatients Evidence-Based Medicine and Test Utilization
CONCLUSIONS: Implementation of CDS dramatically decreased repeat testing of iCa, Mg, and NT-proBNP without adversely impacting clinical outcomes in the ICU. Expansion of the rules from the ICU units to include the entire hospitalized patient population and expansion to additional analytes is expected to lead to further reductions in testing.

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for near fatal asthma refractory to conventional ventilation
CONCLUSION: ECMO should be considered sooner for status asthmatics not responding to maximal pharmacological therapy and ventilatory support to prevent ongoing lung injury and mortality.

Magnesium sulfate in pediatric anesthesia: the Super Adjuvant
Summary Magnesium is an essential chemical element in all organisms, intervening in most cellular enzymatic reactions; thus, its importance in homeostasis and as a therapeutic tool in highly challenging patients such as pediatrics. The primary purpose of this paper was to review the role of magnesium sulfate as an adjuvant drug in pediatric anesthesia. This compound already has the scientific backing in certain aspects such as analgesia or muscle relaxation, but only theoretical or empirical backing in others such as organ protection or inflammation, where it seems to be promising. The multitude of potential applications i...

Hypomagnesemia and increased risk of new-onset diabetes mellitus after transplantation in pediatric renal transplant recipients
ConclusionsThis study identifies hypomagnesemia as a significant independent risk factor for the development of NODAT in pediatric renal transplant recipients. Given the clear association between hypomagnesemia and NODAT in both adults and children following renal transplantation, further studies are merited to clarify the etiology of this association and to examine the effect of magnesium supplementation on NODAT.

The Association of Oral Vitamin D and Calcium Supplementation With Bone Mineral Density in Pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Patients
Aim: To investigate the association of calcium (Ca) and vitamin D (vit D) supplementation with bone mineral density (BMD) in pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Materials and Methods: Group I (n=11): de novo ALL patients aged 1 to 18 years. Group II (n=46): pediatric ALL survivors in first complete remission and ALL patients on maintenance chemotherapy. We stratified group II into 3 subgroups according to the postdiagnosis period (group IIa: 8 to 24 mo, group IIb: 24 to 48 mo, group IIc:>48 mo). Group III (n=22): healthy siblings of group II. Daily oral vit D3 and Ca carbonate was given only to group I. In group...

Total and ionized magnesium testing in the surgical intensive care unit – Opportunities for improved laboratory and pharmacy utilization
Ionized fraction (iMg) is the physiologically active form of magnesium (Mg); total Mg may not accurately reflect iMg status. Erroneously “low” Mg levels may result in unnecessary repetitive testing.

Nutritional Adequacy of the Specific Carbohydrate Diet in Pediatric Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Conclusions: Nutrient intake of pediatric inflammatory bowel disease patients on the SCD was adequate when compared with a healthy peer reference population, but adequacy was variable when compared with the dietary recommended intakes. Close monitoring with a multidisciplinary team for patients using the SCD as an alternative or adjunct therapy is recommend to ensure positive outcomes for overall patient health.

Magnesium sulphate replacement therapy in cardiac surgery patients: A systematic review
Introduction: Inconsistent clinical practice in medication management contributes to patient safety risks. Currently, the absence of best practice guidelines contributes to variability in medication management of magnesium sulphate (MgSO4) replacement therapy in the care of post-operative cardiac surgical patients.
