  • Is perceived Failure in School performance a trigger of physical injury? A case-crossover study of children in Stockholm County
    Journal of epidemiology and community health, 2004
    Co-Authors: Lucie Laflamme, Karin Engström, Jette Möller, Johan Hallqvist
    Abstract:

    OBJECTIVES: To investigate whether perceived Failure in School performance increases the potential for children to be physically injured. SUBJECTS: Children aged 10-15 years residing in the Stockholm County and hospitalised or called back for a medical check up because of a physical injury during the School years 2000-2001 and 2001-2002 (n = 592). METHODS: A case-crossover design was used and information on potential injury triggers was gathered by interview. information about family socioeconomic circumstances was gathered by a questionnaire filled in by parents during the child interview (response rate 87%). RESULTS: Perceived Failure in School performance has the potential to trigger injury within up to 10 hours subsequent to exposure (relative risk = 2.70; 95% confidence intervals = 1.2 to 5.8). The risk is significantly higher among pre-adolescents and among children from families at a higher education level. CONCLUSIONS: Experiencing feelings of Failure may affect children's physical safety, in particular among pre-adolescents. Possible mechanisms are perceptual deficits and response changes occasioned by the stress experienced after exposure.

  • Supraventricular Tachycardia in infants, Children and Adolescents
    Paediatric Drugs, 2000
    Co-Authors: Thomas Paul, Harald Bertram, Regina Bökenkamp, Gerd Hausdorf
    Abstract:

    Supraventricular tachycardia is the most frequent form of symptomatic tachydysrhythmia in children. Neonates and infants with paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardias generally present with signs of acute congestive heart Failure. in School-aged children and adolescents, palpitations are the leading symptom. Chronic-permanent tachycardia results in a secondary form of dilated cardiomyopathy. Therapy for episodes of tachycardia depends on the individual situation. in severe haemodynamic compromise, or if ventricular tachycardia is suspected, tachycardia should immediately be terminated by external cardioversion during deep sedation. Vagal manoeuvres are effective in patients with atrioventricular reentrant tachycardias. Adenosine is the drug of first choice in any age group for tachycardias involving the atrioventricular node; its advantages include short half-life and minimal or absent negative inotropic effects. Adenosine may also be used in patients with wide QRS complex tachycardia. intravenous verapamil is contraindicated in neonates and infants because of the high risk of electromechanical dissociation. in older children (

  • Supraventricular tachycardia in infants, children and adolescents: diagnosis, and pharmacological and interventional therapy.

    Abstract:

    Supraventricular tachycardia is the most frequent form of symptomatic tachydysrhythmia in children. Neonates and infants with paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardias generally present with signs of acute congestive heart Failure. in School-aged children and adolescents, palpitations are the leading symptom. Chronic-permanent tachycardia results in a secondary form of dilated cardiomyopathy. Therapy for episodes of tachycardia depends on the individual situation. in severe haemodynamic compromise, or if ventricular tachycardia is suspected, tachycardia should immediately be terminated by external cardioversion during deep sedation. Vagal manoeuvres are effective in patients with atrioventricular reentrant tachycardias. Adenosine is the drug of first choice in any age group for tachycardias involving the atrioventricular node; its advantages include short half-life and minimal or absent negative inotropic effects. Adenosine may also be used in patients with wide QRS complex tachycardia. intravenous verapamil is contraindicated in neonates and infants because of the high risk of electromechanical dissociation. in older children (>5 years) and adolescents, verapamil may be administered with the same restrictions as in adult patients (wide QRS complex tachycardia, significant haemodynamic compromise). Spontaneous cessation of tachycardia can be expected in most neonates and infants during the first year of life. Prophylactic pharmacological treatment in this age group is advisable because recognition of tachycardia is often delayed until the occurrence of symptoms. Withdrawal of drug treatment should be attempted around the end of the first year. However, in older children, spontaneous cessation of tachycardia is rare. Prophylactic drug therapy is performed on an empirical basis. Digoxin may be administered in all forms of supraventricular tachycardia in which the atrioventricular node is involved, except in patients with pre-excitation syndrome aged >1 year. in patients with atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia, class IC drugs such as flecainide and propafenone are effective. Sotalol is also effective in atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia, as well as in primary atrial tachycardia. Although amiodarone has the highest antiarrhythmic potential, it should be used with caution because of its high rate of adverse effects. in School-aged children and adolescents, radiofrequency catheter ablation of the anatomical substrate is an attractive alternative to drug therapy, with a rate of permanent cessation of the tachycardia of up to 90%. Despite the clear advantages of this procedure, it should be performed only with unquestionable indication; the long term morphological and electrophysiological sequelae on the growing atrial and ventricular myocardium are still unknown.
