The Use of Intranasal Dexmedetomidine and Midazolam for Sedated Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Children: A Report From the Pediatric Sedation Research Consortium
Conclusions This report from the PSRC shows that IN DEX in combination with midazolam is an effective medication regimen for children who require an MRI with sedation.

Are We Doing Enough to Reduce Ionizing Radiation Exposure in Children?: An Analysis of Current Approaches to Pediatric Appendicitis Imaging at a Major Urban Medical Center
Conclusions Computed tomography scans were performed in 13.9% of patients with suspected AP. The overall AP rate was 28.4%. We plan to increase the use of magnetic resonance imaging and other modalities to reduce overall computed tomography usage.

Management and Outcome of Pediatric Patients With Transient Small Bowel–Small Bowel Intussusception
Conclusions Transient and benign SB-SBIs with reassuring radiologic and clinical features diagnosed in healthy pediatric patients are likely incidentally found and are unlikely to be associated with a pathologic lead point.

High Incidence of Intra-articular Injuries With Segond Fractures of the Tibia in the Pediatric and Adolescent Population
Conclusions: This large case series of Pediatric Segond fractures suggests a high association with intra-articular injuries, specifically, ACL tears and its equivalent injury, that is, tibial spine fractures, the later more common in the younger patient population. An MRI is recommended in patients with a Segond fracture for characterizing the exact intra-articular injury to help plan the appropriate management. Level of Evidence: Level IV—prognostic.

Craniocervical Dissociation in Pediatric Patients: Pearls and Pitfalls of Diagnosis and Management
Aims The aims of this study were to document the injury pattern in pediatric traumatic craniocervical dissociation (CCD) and identify features of survivors. Methods Pediatric traumatic CCDs, diagnosed between January 2004 and July 2016, were reviewed. Survivors and nonsurvivors were compared. Categorical and continuous variables were analyzed with Fisher exact and t tests, respectively. Results Twenty-seven children were identified; 10 died (37%). The median age was 60 months (ranges, 6–109 months [survivors], 2–98 months [nonsurvivors]). For survivors, the median follow-up was 13.4 months (range, 1â€...

Is the Early Diagnosis of Pediatric Stroke Possible in the Emergency Department?
Conclusions Childhood stroke is a neurological emergency that requires a multidisciplinary approach. Early stroke diagnosis is vital for treatment and prognosis. With respect to sudden neurological deficits, particularly dysarthria, altered consciousness, hemiplegia, and hemiparesis, should alert clinicians to stroke. In addition, interdepartmental cooperation is essential both in the rapid recognition of stroke and the treatment and follow-up processes.

A Young Man With Severe and Disabling Complications of Septic Shock.
Abstract A young man had severe septic shock with multiorgan failure due to necrotizing fasciitis caused by group A streptococcus after endoscopic repair of a preperitoneal inguinal hernia. He was treated with surgical exploration and antibiotics and resuscitated with fluids, vasopressors, and inotropic agents. He survived this critical illness, but when he woke up from sedation, his vision was lost in both eyes. Ophthalmological evaluation revealed minimal peripapillary retinal hemorrhages without signs of papillary edema. Visually evoked potentials were negative. Magnetic resonance imaging did not show a cause o...

Pediatric Acute Flaccid Paralysis: Enterovirus D68 –Associated Anterior Myelitis
Enteroviral infections can cause acute flaccid paralysis secondary to anterior myelitis. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is important in the diagnosis of this potentially devastating pediatric disease. Before the 2014 outbreak of Enterovirus D68 (EV-D68), the virus was considered a relatively benign disease.

A New Paradigm for the Management of Thoracolumbar Pediatric Spine Traumas
Conclusions: This study confirms that the TBHS is a relevant clinical tool that should be added in the routine questionnaire after any trauma at admission. Magnetic resonance imaging should be restricted to patients with a TBHS positive at admission. A single T2 Short T1 Inversion Recovery (STIR) sagittal sequence seems sufficient to make the diagnosis and could replace the use of standard x-rays in pediatric spine traumas.

Secondary Abnormal CSF Neurotransmitter Metabolite Profiles in a Pediatric Tertiary Care Centre.
DISCUSSION: Acknowledging the limitations of this retrospective chart review, we conclude that, in our cohort, in addition to patients with movement disorders, a considerable number of patients with epilepsy and epileptic encephalopathy also showed secondary neurotransmitter mono-amine abnormalities. There is no clear relation, however, between clinical phenotype and type of neurotransmitter affected. In addition, no association was identified between the type of antiseizure medications and affected neurotransmitter type. We outline the need for prospective studies to further enrich our understanding of the relation betwee...

Presentation of Acute Childhood Stroke in a Tertiary Pediatric Emergency Department
Conclusions The spectrum of stroke in a developing country was similar to published series from developed countries in terms of final diagnosis, risk factors, and delay to ED presentation, neuroimaging, and long-term neurodeficits. No tropical diseases were identified as risk factors.

Median Nerve Entrapment in the Ulna in a Both-Bone Pediatric Forearm Fracture: Case Report and Review of the Literature
This case report presents entrapment with subsequent complete disruption of the median nerve in the distal ulna in a both-bone fracture of the forearm in a 9-year-old girl. Closed fractures of the radius and ulna commonly occur in pediatric populations. Postinjury nerve dysfunction is often seen. Severe nerve injury is rare. There are only 3 reports of the median nerve becoming entrapped in an ulnar fracture in a child, with no reports of entrapment in the distal forearm. Features seen on examination and the radiographs supported possible nerve entrapment. Although uncommon, nerve entrapment or transection should be consid...

Lower-Dose Propofol Use for MRI: A Retrospective Review of a Pediatric Sedation Team's Experience
Conclusions Propofol infusion doses lower than commonly reported permit successful completion of scans and similar recovery times in a single institution. Younger children require more propofol for successful procedural sedation.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging Availability Reduces Computed Tomography Use for Pediatric Appendicitis Diagnosis
Conclusions Introducing MRI for as an imaging option for children with suspected appendicitis and an inconclusive ultrasound markedly reduced CT use, but did result in a small increase in imaging charges and time to preliminary radiology read.

Verification of Usefulness of Pediatric Head Trauma Imaging Protocol Combining Computerized Tomography, Observation Unit, and Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Conclusions The protocol we created by combining CT, observation unit, and MRI was considered to be useful for practice in pediatric head injury cases. This study was conducted to investigate computed tomography (CT) scan rate and diagnostic accuracy of our protocol combining CT, observation unit, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and compare them with other clinical decision rules (PECARN, CATCH, and CHALICE).
