    Abstract Objective: Pigtail thoracostomy (PT) has become the mainstay technique for the drainage of pediatric pleuropneumonic effusions (PLPe). However, its efficacy and complication profile has been questioned when compared with video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery and larger bore traditional tube thoracostomy. The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy, safety, and complications associated with PT.
    Methods: A cross-sectional study at a freestanding tertiary children's hospital. We extracted the medical records of all children aged younger than 18 years treated with PT for PLPe from June 2016 to June 2020. The primary efficacy outcome was treatment failure defined as the need for a repeat drainage procedure, thoracostomy, or video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. Secondary efficacy outcomes were length of hospital stay (LOS) and duration of in situ PT. The primary safety outcomes were adverse events during or after insertion. We also recorded any associated complications.
    Results: During the study period, 55 children required PT. The median age was 25 months (interquartile range, 14-52) and 58.2% were boys. Eight (14.4%) were bacteremic or in septic shock. There were no adverse events related to insertion. Forty-two (76.3%) children were treated with fibrinolysis. There were 2 (3.6%) treatment failures. The median LOS and PT durations were 13 and 4 days (interquartile ranges, 10-14.8, 3-6.7), respectively. Eight (14.4%) children experienced complications that were nonoperatively managed.
    Conclusions: Our findings suggest that PT drainage offers a safe and highly effective option for managing PLPe and carries a very low failure rate.

    Abstract Pediatric forearm and wrist fractures are common; furthermore, some are displaced and require manipulation and reduction. The procedure is commonly performed without real-time image guidance and evaluated radiographically after reduction and casting, leading to multiple reduction attempts and malalignment. Although fluoroscopy can provide real-time assessment of fracture alignment during the procedure, it is not readily available in many emergency departments (EDs) and involves radiation exposure. Ultrasonography is an alternative real-time imaging modality that is inexpensive and readily available. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the use of real-time bedside sonography during closed reduction of distal and middle third forearm fractures can decrease the number of reduction attempts and reduce the number of patients requiring surgery. We compared the results of a conventional blind manipulation, fracture reduction, and casting to fracture reduction under real-time ultrasonographic guidance, in patients treated in our ED between 2014 and 2016. Overall, 458 patients with distal or middle third fractures were included. Of these reductions, 289 were performed without real-time imaging (group 1) and 169 under real-time ultrasound guidance (group 2). In group 1, 10% of patients required re-reduction, and 5% of patients needed surgery. In group 2, only one patient (0.6%) required re-reduction and 1% of patients required surgery due to fracture instability. In conclusion, the current study shows that real-time ultrasound-guided forearm fracture reduction is an effective and inexpensive method for correction of displaced forearm and wrist fractures in children, which does not involve any radiation exposure.

    Abstract Introduction: During military conflicts in southern Israel, many families moved north, and hospitals and primary care clinics under threat of missile attacks referred their patients to hospitals outside the combat zone, causing overcrowding of the emergency departments (ED). The study objective is to examine the effect of military conflicts on ED waiting time in a children's hospital outside the combat zone.
    Materials and methods: A retrospective cohort study of patients admitted between January 2011 and December 2015 was conducted. Multivariable regression was used to examine the effect of age, gender, triage category, arrival time, weekday, and period of admission (peacetime and time of military conflict) on waiting time.
    Results: Totally, 79,825 children were admitted in peacetimes and 3,058 in times of military conflict. Factors that most influenced shorter waiting times were triage category 1 (change in waiting time: -25.5%; 95% confidence interval: -29.3 to -21.7) or triage category 2 (change in wait time: -21.8%; 95% confidence interval: -23.7 to -20.05). Arriving during times of military conflict did not influence ED waiting time (p=0.18). ED waiting times during times of peace and times of military conflict were 38 min of interquartile range (21-65) and 38 min of interquartile range (22-65), respectively.
    Conclusions: In this report of a large cohort of patients, waiting times were similar during periods of peace and periods of military conflict. The findings suggest that the 2012 and the 2014 military conflicts did not influence ED waiting times in a hospital outside the combat zone, despite the population shift that occurred during these conflicts. This study is the first to examine the association between periods of military conflict and ED waiting time in children.

    Abstract Objectives: To compare the success rates and ease of use of three intraosseous (IO) access devices used in term neonates.
    Design: A three-arm randomised controlled simulation study was conducted.
    Setting: A simulation laboratory.
    Participants: Seventy-two paediatric residents completing their emergency department rotation as part of their residency training, and 20 paediatric specialists.
    Intervention: Using an animal bone model, the one-attempt success rate of the EZ-IO drill, the NIO-I needle and the Jamshidi needle was compared. Uncooked Cornish Hen bones were used because of their similarity in length and diameter to the bones of neonates. Participants were asked to record the perceived ease of use of their assigned device using a 5-point Likert Scale.
    Main outcome measure: The main outcome was the visualisation of flow emerging from the distal end of the bone, and perceived ease of use of the three IO devices.
    Results: The EZ-IO, NIO-I and Jamshidi groups included 30, 31 and 31 participants, respectively, with median (IQR) years of experience of 3 (2-5), 3 (2-6) and 4 (3-5) years. Participants had significantly lower one-attempt success rates with the EZ-IO drill than with the NIO-I and the Jamshidi needles (14 of 30 (46.7%) vs 24 of 31 (77.4%); p=0.016, and 14 of 30 (46.7%) vs 25 of 31 (80.7%); p=0.007, respectively). The median (IQR) ease-of-use score of the EZ-IO drill was higher than that of the NIO-I and Jamshidi needles (5 (4-5) vs 4 (4-5); p=0.008, and 5 (4-5) vs 4 (3-4); p=0.0004, respectively).
    Conclusions: Although easier to use, the EZ-IO drill demonstrated lower success rates than the IO needles in establishing IO access on a neonatal bone model.

    Abstract Background: Acute pain and anxiety management during pediatric burn dressing change is very challenging. There are limited data regarding feasibility and safety of sedation administration by nonanesthesiologists. We sought to describe the implementation of a sedation protocol for pediatric residents during burn dressing changes in the pediatric ward.
    Methods: An analgesia and sedation protocol was designed and implemented in the pediatric wards in 2015. Retrospective data were collected on all children who were sedated by pediatric residents for burns in the pediatric wards over a 4-year period in our hospital. Demographics, burn characteristics, and data regarding adverse events were collected from patients' electronic medical records. The main outcomes were successful procedure completion and safety.
    Results: During the study period, 1130 sedations were performed in 272 patients by pediatric residents. The median age was 2.5 years (IQR 1.3-9.1). Sixty-two percent (695/1130) of the patients were male. The majority of the burns (84%, 955/1130) were <20%, and the majority of the patients (91%, 1030/1130) had an ASA (American Society of Anesthesiologists) score of 1. The incidence rate of adverse events was 4.3% (49/1130) and 1.3% (15/1130) for serious adverse events . There were no statistically significant differences in gender, age, ASA, or burn degree between patients with or without adverse events.
    Conclusions: We designed and implemented an analgesia and sedation protocol for pediatric residents to be applied in patients during burn dressing change. The implemented protocol in the pediatric wards was found to be feasible and with a low incidence of adverse events.
