Documento de consenso SENPE/SEGHNP/ANECIPN/SECP sobre vías de acceso en nutrición enteral pediátrica.

Standardization of clinical procedures has become a desirable objective in contemporary medical practice. To this effect, the Spanish Society of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition (SENPE) has endeavoured to create clinical practice guidelines and/or documents of consensus as well as quality standards in artificial nutrition. As a result, the SENPE´s Standardization Team has put together the "Document of Consensus in Enteral Access for Paediatric Nutritional Support" supported by the Spanish Society of Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (SEGHNP), the National Association of Pediatric and Neonatal Intensive Care Nursery (ANECIPN), and the Spanish Society of Pediatric Surgery (SECP). The present publication is a reduced version of our work; the complete document will be published as a monographic issue. It analyzes enteral access options in the pediatric patient, reviews the levels of evidence and provides the team-members' experience. Similarly, it details general and specific indications for pediatric enteral support, current techniques, care guidelines, methods of administration and complications of each enteral access. The data published by the American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition (ASPEN) and several European Societies has also been incorporated.

Aplicación de la ecografía pediátrica en Atención Primaria; interconexión con la atención hospitalaria

Introduction: The use of ultrasound in pediatric Primary Care improves both the quality and efficiency of care. Material and methods: This study indertook 250 ultrasounds over a 12 moth period from May 2009 to April 2010. Results: Te results found for each anatomical region were 45% abdominal, 25% cranial, 15% of the hip, 10% of parotid and thyroids and 5% of tender areas. From these, the most relevant pathology was Gastroesophageal Reflux, acoounting for 7.2% of all ultrasounds undertaken. Renal pyelectasia accounted for 1.6% cephalhematoma 1.6%, dysplasia of the hip 1.2%, acute parotitis 1.2%, adenopathy 1.2%, cervical angioma 0.4%, and abscessed adenopathy 0.4%. Conclusion: From this analysis, we conclude that ultrasound is a useful tool for the detection of abdominal and cranial pathologies and secondarily, for thyroid, hip and cervical pathologies.

¿Quién acompaña a los pacientes a la consulta pediátrica? El acompañante de los pacientes pediátricos en Atención Primaria

Introduction: today, cultural changes may have changed the usual pattern of the mother as the accompanying person in the pediatric office. Objetives: descriptive analysis of the current situation in the pediatrics office. Material and methods: Las Delicias Health Center (health district of Malaga). Selected sample of 250 patients between the periods 1-15 July and 15-30 September, 2011. Results: in most cases (54.8%), the mother stands as the main accompanying person, appearing both parents in the consultation in 16.4% of cases. The figure of the grandparents is of special significance when the mother is an active worker. Most consultations were on-demand by appointment (82.4%), for acute symptoms, with symptoms lasting less than 3 days in most cases (59.2%). Discussion: the mother is presented as the main accompanying person in most cases. The father or grandparents will be present in front of social-cultural factors, mainly active employment status of the mother.

Fractura bilateral de calcáneo en edad pediátrica. A propósito de un caso

OBJECTIVE: Propose and debate the treatment management for unusual traumatic pathology, both due to the age of the patient and the bilateral location. CLINICAL CASE: Bilateral calcaneal fracture in a ten year old male, after falling three meters to land on his heels. Examination revealed pain and swelling at that level, with no distal neurovascular alterations. After the clinical study, x-rays were taken, as well as a CAT scan which revealed a complex fracture of both calcanei. After 72 hours and verifying that the soft tissue was in optimal condition, the left calcaneus was immobilized with a closed cast while the right was trans!xed with a Steinmann pin following the Essex-Lopresti technique, achieved under scope to attain an acceptable reduction of the fracture and the congruency of all a"ected joints.
