The development of a specialty: an interview with Dr. Mark C. Rogers, a pioneering pediatric intensivist
Summary Dr. Mark C. Rogers (1942–), Professor of Anesthesiology, Critical Care Medicine, and Pediatrics at the Johns Hopkins University, was recruited by the Department of Pediatrics at Johns Hopkins Hospital in 1977 to become the first director of its pediatric intensive care unit. After the dean of the medical school appointed him to chair the Department of Anesthesia in 1979, Rogers changed the course and culture of the department. He renamed it the Department of Anesthesiology and Critical Care Medicine, and developed a long‐term strategy of excellence in clinical care, research, and education. However, throughout ...

Recommendations for Cardiac Point-of-Care Ultrasound in Children: A Report from the American Society of Echocardiography ∗∗Endorsed by the Society of Critical Care Medicine
Cardiac point-of-care ultrasound has the potential to improve patient care, but its application to children requires consideration of anatomic and physiologic differences from adult populations, and corresponding technical aspects of performance. This document is the product of an American Society of Echocardiography task force composed of representatives from pediatric cardiology, pediatric critical care medicine, pediatric emergency medicine, pediatric anesthesiology, and others, assembled to provide expert guidance.

Point of care serum lactate levels as a prognostic marker of outcome in complex pediatric cardiac surgery patients: Can we utilize it?
Conclusion: Early point of care lactate can be a useful prognostic marker in post-cardiac surgery patients in adjunct with other parameters measured in PICU. This reiterates the importance of measuring lactates and timely recognition of at-risk patients, which on early intervention can help in reducing post-operative morbidity and mortality.

Chest ultrasonography in pediatric critical care practice.
Abstract An increasingly amount of evidence suggests that lung ultrasonography constitutes a relevant complementary diagnostic tool for adults patient in acute respiratory failure. A comprehensive and standardized ultrasonographic semiology has been described, relying on accurate and reproducible data directly obtained at patient's bedside. Therefore, pleural effusion, pneumothorax, pulmonary consolidation and interstitial lung disease can be diagnosed in a critical care environment with a similar level of performance than when reference diagnosis methods such as thoracic CT-scan are employed. Furthermore, lung ul...

Comparison of monitoring performance of bioreactance versus esophageal Doppler in pediatric patients
Conclusion: Simultaneous CI estimations made by bioreactance and TED showed high percentage of errors that is not clinically acceptable. Bioreactance cannot be considered suitable for monitoring pediatric patients.

Breaking the glass ceiling: an interview with Dr. Shirley Graves, a pioneering woman in medicine
Summary Shirley Graves M.D., D.Sc. (honorary) (1936), Professor Emeritus of Anesthesiology and Pediatrics at the University of Florida, was one of the most influential women in medicine in the 1960 and 1970s, a time when the medical profession was overwhelmingly male‐dominated. In today's society, it is hard to believe that only 50 years ago, women were scarce in the field of medicine. Yet Dr. Graves was a pioneer in the fields of pediatric anesthesia and pediatric critical care medicine. She identifies her development of the pediatric intensive care unit and her leadership in the Division of Pediatric Anesthesia at the...

Methadone: applications in pediatric anesthesiology and critical care medicine
AbstractLike morphine, methadone is a pure agonist at the µ opioid receptor. However, in distinction to morphine which has an elimination half-life of 2–3 h, methadone has an elimination half-life of 24–36 h. In addition to its effects at the µ opioid receptor, methadone is an antagonist at then-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor and also inhibits the reuptake of the neurotransmitters, serotonin and norepinephrine, in the central nervous system. Given its long half-life and high oral bioavailability, methadone has had a primary role in the outpatient treatment of patients with a history of opioid abuse or addiction...

The Effect of Methylprednisolone on Plasma Concentrations of Neutrophil Gelatinase–Associated Lipocalin in Pediatric Heart Surgery*
Conclusions: Preoperatively administered methylprednisolone profoundly decreases plasma neutrophil gelatinase–associated lipocalin levels. Neutrophil gelatinase–associated lipocalin seems to originate to a significant extent from activated neutrophils. Preoperative methylprednisolone is a confounding factor when interpreting plasma neutrophil gelatinase–associated lipocalin levels as a kidney injury marker in pediatric heart surgery.

Intensive Care Treatment of Uncontrolled Status Epilepticus in Children: Systematic Literature Search of Midazolam and Anesthetic Therapies*
Conclusions: The data on intensive care treatment of pediatric refractory status epilepticus are of poor quality, yet they show a hierarchy in strategies: early midazolam, then barbiturates, and then trial of other anesthetic strategies. In addition, using a solely clinical endpoint for seizure control may be missing significant seizure burden in pediatric refractory status epilepticus.

Risk Factors for the Development of Postoperative Delirium in Pediatric Intensive Care Patients
Objectives: To determine and quantify risk factors for postoperative pediatric delirium. Design: Single-center prospective cohort study. Setting: Twenty-two bed PICU in a tertiary care academic medical center in Germany. Patients: All children admitted after major elective surgery (n = 93; 0–17 yr). Interventions: After awakening, children were screened for delirium using the Cornell Assessment of Pediatric Delirium bid over a period of 5 days. Demographic and clinical data were collected from the initiation of general anesthesia. Measurements and Main Results: A total of 61 patients (66%) were delirious...

A Novel Combined-Catheter to Monitor Left and Right Atrial Pressures: A Simple and Reliable Method for Pediatric Cardiac Surgery*
Conclusions: This novel combined-catheter was safe and reliable at monitoring left and right atrial pressures, and infusion involved only one catheter without the disadvantages of the traditional method. This new novel method may be particularly useful in pediatric open-heart surgery.
