Drug Dosing: Infants and Children

Drug Dosing: Infants and Children

Pediatric patient dosages diverge from adults due to disparities in body surface area, total body water, and extracellular fluid per kilogram of body weight. The dosing regimen considers the variations in pharmacokinetics and pharmacology across distinct age groups, encompassing preterm newborns, infants, young children, older children, and adolescents. Calculation of pediatric patient doses is predicated on determining body surface area, which exhibits a superior correlation with the child's...

Nature and Nurture

Nature and Nurture

Many human characteristics, like height, are shaped by both nature—in other words, by our genes—and by nurture, or our environment. For example, chronic stress during childhood inhibits the production of growth hormones and consequently reduces bone growth and height. Scientists estimate that 70-90% of variation in height is due to genetic differences among individuals, and 10-30% of variation in height is due to differences in the environments that individuals experience,...

Area of Science:

Pediatric Gastroenterology
Endoscopic Procedures
Small Bowel Diseases

Background:

Device-assisted enteroscopy is an emerging endoscopic technique for small bowel evaluation in pediatric patients.
Existing data on enteroscopy in children is limited, necessitating further review of its benefits.

Purpose of the Study:

To assess the diagnostic and therapeutic advantages of device-assisted enteroscopy in pediatric populations.
To review indications, technical aspects, and potential complications of enteroscopy in children.

Main Methods:

Analysis of pediatric literature on device-assisted enteroscopy.
Inclusion of relevant adult studies applicable to pediatric cases.
Focus on indications, technical considerations, and complications.

Main Results:

Key indications in children include obscure gastrointestinal bleeding, Crohn's disease, and small bowel polyps.
High diagnostic yield is observed, but pre-enteroscopy imaging (MR-enterography, capsule endoscopy) is recommended.
Major complications are infrequent and primarily associated with therapeutic interventions.

Conclusions:

Device-assisted enteroscopy is a valuable and safe endoscopic modality for pediatric patients.
Integration with MR-enterography and capsule endoscopy enhances the identification and management of pediatric small bowel conditions.
The procedure offers a low risk of complications for diagnosing and treating various pediatric small bowel diseases.
