To improve patient selection for head CT, a safe and high sensitivity screening neuroimaging modality is needed. Currently many clinicians must make treatment decisions based solely on the patients clinical exam, which has low sensitivity and specificity and low inter-rater reliability. This study is being done to learn more about B-mode cranial point-of-care ultrasound (cPOCUS). Ultrasound has several advantages. It is a safe, non- invasive, low-cost, fast and portable bedside tool without ionizing radiation exposure.
The proposed project will test an implementation strategy (the "TrailGuide") for delivering an existing model of pediatric obesity treatment ("Fit Together") that has demonstrated ability to meet published recommendations for improving health outcomes of children with obesity.
This is a prospective study, involving contacting potential plasma donors and the use of their plasma to help fight off infections of those suffering from COVID19 in accordance to collection guidelines for plasma and FDA IND requirement. This study will include up to 240 participants potentially receiving convalescent plasma and up to 1000 potential donors. There are 3 basic arms to the study: mild, moderate and severe/critical severity. All 3 severity groups are eligible for enrollment, but mild severity will not be given plasma unless there is progression. Moderate severity will given up to 1 unit of plasma and severe/critical severity up to 2 units. There is no placebo group, however given the excepted issues of shortages of plasma, intention to treat will be used for analysis.
The majority of young children do not think that visual field (VF) testing of peripheral vision is similar to a game; therefore, it is not surprising that they have difficulty maintaining attention during VF testing and thus the test reliability suffers as a consequence. Poor VF reliability has been a longstanding, major issue since it leads to an increased number of tests and/or longer duration of time needed to determine when there are true vision losses. Providers are less likely to obtain VF tests in children since the results are of doubtful value and challenging to interpret when they are inconsistent. Effectively this means that children with untreated, slowly progressive eye diseases may go undiagnosed and incur greater visual losses. The investigators aim to create a prototype device that the investigators hypothesize will make VF testing more engaging for young children, thus increasing their attention and consistency of their responses to the test stimuli, which in turn should improve VF reliability. The components include a microdisplay video screen (1.5" diameter) as the fixation target (instead of the standard LED light) displaying video clips of popular cartoon characters, and audio clips of impersonated cartoon character voices presented by the test operator to provide instructional feedback based on the child's performance during testing. Improved VF reliability from the investigators intervention would translate to improved diagnosis and care for young childrens' peripheral vision loss through widespread implementation of the investigators innovative, affordable and readily adoptable system at eye care providers' offices.
Prospective, multi-center, observational, real-world evidence data collection registry to confirm the continued clinical performance of the AERA® device in pediatric patients
AIDANET algorithm with smart-phone based control system (study smart phone), specifically modified Tandem insulin system (study insulin pump), and Dexcom G6 CGM (study CGM).
The STOP PEDS RCT is a multicenter, parallel, open label randomized controlled trial evaluating the long-term (one year) and short-term safety and efficacy of two antibiotic treatment strategies for the management of outpatient pulmonary exacerbations (PEx) in the pediatric CF population.
The CR-AZI Study will assess the immunomodulatory effects of Azithromycin for pediatric Critical Asthma.
The purpose of this study is to provide data on the pharmacokinetic (PK), safety, tolerability, efficacy and acceptability of this fixed dose combination (FDC) single tablet 2-drug regimen for virologically suppressed (HIV-1 RNA \[Ribonucleic Acid\] \< 50 \[cells per milliliter\] c/mL) children 6 to less than 12 years of age, weighing at least 25 kilogram (kg).
Narrative: Worldwide, traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a leading cause of death and disability among children and adolescents. The Investigators aim to test whether pediatric TBI treatment guided by invasive intracranial pressure monitoring produces better patient outcomes than care guided by a protocol without invasive monitoring. Study findings will inform clinical practice in treating pediatric severe TBI globally. Focused didactic and experience-based learning opportunities will increase the research capacity of pediatric intensivists in Latin America.
