Intravenous Fluid Administration's Effect on Pediatric Lumbar Puncture

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The purpose of this project is to determine if administration of normal saline intravenous fluids prior to a lumbar puncture improves first time success of lumbar puncture in infants less than 3 months of age. First time success of lumbar puncture defined as cerebrospinal fluid obtained on the first attempt with less than 1000 red blood cells per mm3 in the fluid specimen.
