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,...

A clear understanding of concussion signs and symptoms is vital for recognition by various stakeholders.

Purpose of the Study:

To emphasize the importance of recognizing concussion in pediatric athletes.
To highlight the need for a clear understanding of concussion definitions, signs, and symptoms.
To underscore the critical role of proper concussion management in mitigating long-term consequences.

Main Methods:

Review of current understanding and management of pediatric concussions.
Emphasis on the role of coaches, families, teachers, and physicians in identification.
Discussion of the impact of concussion on academic and social functioning.

Main Results:

Concussions significantly impact school performance and relationships.
Knowledge regarding long-term consequences of pediatric concussion is still developing.
Effective concussion management is essential for reducing potential long-term sequelae.

Conclusions:

Early and accurate recognition of concussion in pediatric athletes is paramount.
Comprehensive understanding and management protocols are necessary.
While prevention is not yet possible, proper care can minimize lasting effects.
