Abstract

Pill-swallowing training (PST) is a promising behavioral intervention. However, previous studies of PST have largely reported outcomes only in children aged 6 years and older. In the pediatric oncology setting, younger children may benefit from learning to swallow pills, with motivators such as avoiding bad-tasting liquid medications, simplifying oral medication routines, and accessing trials for patients with poor prognoses. Here, we briefly describe the standard PST intervention protocol and report success with very young patients experiencing a variety of medical, emotional, behavioral, and developmental complications. The current case series illustrates the utility of traditional behavioral PST interventions with novel supplements, such as intervention to increase general compliance or decrease anxiety, in four young children with cancer. These cases highlight the effectiveness of PST and describe the positive impact reported by each family. Developmental considerations for using PST with young children with cancer are offered.

幼儿癌症患者的药片吞咽训练:一个病例系列和发展考虑。
吞咽训练(PST)是一种很有前途的行为干预方法。然而,先前的研究大多只报道了6岁及以上儿童的PST结果。在儿科肿瘤学环境中,年幼的儿童可能会从学习吞咽药片中受益,有一些激励因素,如避免味道不好的液体药物,简化口服药物程序,以及为预后不良的患者进行试验。在这里,我们简要地描述了标准的PST干预方案,并报告了在经历各种医学、情感、行为和发育并发症的非常年轻的患者中取得的成功。目前的病例系列说明了传统的行为PST干预与新型补充的效用,例如干预以增加一般依从性或减少焦虑,在四个患有癌症的幼儿中。这些案例突出了PST的有效性,并描述了每个家庭报告的积极影响。提供了在患有癌症的幼儿中使用PST的发展考虑。

期刊介绍: Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
