Opioids and benzodiazepines are the most frequently used agents but can have adverse effects. Dexmedetomidine, an alpha‐2 agonist, might be interesting to spare opioid and benzodiazepine use. The objective of this study was to describe a cohort of mechanically ventilated extremely, preterm infants treated with morphine with or without dexmedetomidine. This was a retrospective, observational, single‐center study in the neonatal intensive care unit of Creteil. We included preterm neonates born before 28 weeks of gestation and/or weighting less than 1000 g hospitalized between July 2017 and June 2020, on mechanical ventilation for at least 72 h and who received morphine with or without dexmedetomidine as a second‐ or third‐line treatment. We described morphine and midazolam exposure, respiratory, and digestive outcomes for patients who received dexmedetomidine and those who did not. Twenty nine preterm infants received morphine and dexmedetomidine, and 44 received morphine without dexmedetomidine. Dexmedetomidine was used in patients of 25.7 [25.1–26.7] weeks, 680 [600–750] g and significantly more often in patients with vascular complications during pregnancy (p = 0.008), intrauterine growth restriction (p = 0.01) and in patients who received higher cumulative doses of morphine (p = 0.01). Morphine and midazolam doses tended to decrease after the introduction of dexmedetomidine. Dexmedetomidine was never discontinued because of side effects. In this study, dexmedetomidine, used as a second or third‐line treatment during mechanical ventilation, was associated with a decrease in morphine and midazolam doses after introduction. Dexmedetomidine was used in a specific population of extremely preterm infants, with severe respiratory disease, who required prolonged mechanical ventilation and high morphine doses. This study highlights the need for pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic studies in this population, followed by randomized controlled trials and studies on the long‐term effects of dexmedetomidine to determine its place in analgosedation of ventilated preterm infants.","PeriodicalId":508838,"journal":{"name":"Paediatric and Neonatal Pain","volume":"104 22","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141820943","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"The efficacy of wound catheter infusion with local anesthetics for the treatment of postoperative pain in children: A systematic review","authors":"Dominique J. Swenker, M. Dirckx, L. Staals","doi":"10.1002/pne2.12126","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1002/pne2.12126","url":null,"abstract":"Wound catheter infusion (WCI) with local anesthetics (LA) is a regional anesthesia technique, which has shown to produce effective postoperative analgesia in adults, without any adverse effects on wound healing. To investigate the efficacy and safety of WCI with LA for the treatment of postoperative pain in children, we conducted a systematic review of literature published until 2020. The literature search included articles concerning subcutaneous WCI with LA, in the surgical wound, as treatment of postoperative pain, in children <18 years of age. Exclusion criteria were studies describing peripheral nerve blocks, intercostal, abdominal or thoracic wall blocks and single local anesthetic infiltration of the surgical wound. The articles were appraised for quality and only randomized controlled trials with a Jadad score ≥3 were included for evaluation of results concerning postoperative pain scores and opioid use. All relevant original studies, including observational studies and case reports, were assessed for adverse events and measurements of LA plasma concentrations during WCI. A total of 1907 articles were found, leading to 92 relevant abstracts selected for further review. After exclusion of articles of which full texts could not be retrieved or because of exclusion criteria, 28 articles remained. Thirteen articles described randomized controlled trials, of which 10 were assessed as good or excellent in quality. Due to the small number and heterogeneity of the studies, the data could not be pooled. Instead, results were described per type of procedure: abdominal surgery, extremity surgery, thoracic surgery and iliac crest bone harvesting. Reduced pain scores and opioid needs were demonstrated after abdominal and extremity surgery. In five studies, plasma levels of LA were measured, which all remained below toxic thresholds. In all relevant studies, no serious adverse events concerning the use of WCI were reported.","PeriodicalId":508838,"journal":{"name":"Paediatric and Neonatal Pain","volume":"17 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141383568","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"A systematic review of in‐person versus remotely delivered interventions for youth with chronic pain","authors":"Nicole E. MacKenzie, M. Marbil, Sabine Soltani, Diane L. Lorenzetti, K.

Many youth with chronic pain have the ability to access care virtually; however, little is known about the efficacy of pain care for youth with chronic pain delivered virtually when compared to in‐person. Such evidence is essential to guide youth in making decisions about their care, but also to inform what options health professionals present to youth. The purpose of this systematic review and meta‐analysis was to examine the efficacy of interventions that are delivered in‐person versus virtually for youth with chronic pain. Five databases (i.e., CINAHL, EMBASE, MEDLINE, APA PsycINFO, and Web of Science) were searched in October 2022 to identify randomized controlled trials that compare single/multimodal interventions for pediatric chronic pain delivered in‐person versus virtually. A total 3638 unique studies were identified through database and other searching, two of which satisfied established criteria for inclusion in this review. Both studies compared psychological interventions delivered virtually versus in‐person for youth with chronic pain and showed comparable efficacy across modalities. The planned meta‐analyses could not be conducted due to different outcomes within each study that could not be combined. This systematic review highlights a critical gap in the evidence regarding the efficacy of virtually delivered interventions for youth with chronic pain. This evidence is necessary to inform treatment decisions for youth, and further research is required to develop the evidence to inform clinical interventions, especially as virtual treatments continue to be offered.","PeriodicalId":508838,"journal":{"name":"Paediatric and Neonatal Pain","volume":" 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141129154","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Posterior spinal fusion for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis and the impact of postoperative intravenous dexamethasone supplementation","authors":"Amy McIntosh, Emily Lachmann, Anne‐Marie Datcu, Christopher McLeod","doi":"10.1002/pne2.12117","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1002/pne2.12117","url":null,"abstract":"Postoperative care pathways for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis patients undergoing posterior spinal fusion have demonstrated decreases in postoperative opioid consumption, improved pain control, and lead to decreased lengths of stay. Our objective was to implement postoperative steroids to reduce acute postoperative opioid consumption, pain scores, and length of stay. Dosing consisted of intravenous dexamethasone 0.1 mg/kg up to 4 mg per dose for a total of three doses at 8, 16, and 24 h postoperatively. As part of a quality initiative, we compared three cohorts of patients. The initial retrospective epidural cohort (EPI) (n = 59) had surgeon placed epidural catheters with infusion of ropivacaine 0.1% postoperatively for 18–24 h. Following an institutional change in postoperative care, epidural use was discontinued. A second cohort (n = 149), with prospectively collected data, received a surgeon placed erector spinae plane block and wound infiltration with a combination of liposomal and plain bupivacaine (LB). A third cohort (n = 168) was evaluated prospectively. This cohort received a surgeon placed erector spinae plane block and wound infiltration with liposomal and plain bupivacaine and additionally received postoperative dexamethasone for three doses (LB + D). Compared to the LB cohort, the LB + D cohort demonstrated statistically significant decreases in oral milligram morphine equivalents per kilogram at 0–24, 24–48, and 48–72 h. There was a statistically significant difference in median pain scores at 24–48 and 48–72 h in LB + D versus LB. The LB + D cohort's median length of stay in hours was significantly less compared to the LB cohort (52 h vs. 70 h, p < 0.0001). Postoperative intravenous dexamethasone was added to an established postoperative care pathway for patients undergoing posterior spinal fusion for idiopathic scoliosis resulting in decreased VAS pain scores, opioid consumption, and shorter length of stay.","PeriodicalId":508838,"journal":{"name":"Paediatric and Neonatal Pain","volume":"6 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139234493","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
