Tracheostomy is the opening enabling breathing without the larynx, throat and mouth, which aims to restore and sustain airway patency. Indications of this intervention have changed over the years. The selection of patients for this procedure, as well as the moment, when it has to be performed are still not clearly defined. Those require a multidisciplinary approach and a standardized protocol. More analyses are necessary to create widely available guidelines. Aim. Analysis of tracheotomy indications in children performed between 2015-2020 in the Department of Pediatric Otolaryngology, Medical University of Warsaw. Material and methods. During the 5-year period (2015-beginning of 2020) 64 children with tracheostomy were treated in the Department of Pediatric Otolaryngology. Groups of tracheotomy indications were separated after a retrospective overview of the 64 cases from our clinic and after manual and electronic search through medical databases for indications for tracheotomy in previous years. Then patient’s data (age at the time of surgery, concomitant diseases and/or disabilities) was collated, which allowed to present the characteristics of children and compare the tracheotomy indications in previous years with the results of this research. Results. Tracheotomy was performed among 64 children. The median patients’ age was 0.5 year and the average age was 4.26 years. Our patients were affected by many various conditions. We divided them into 8 main groups: congenital malformation syndromes, trauma, vocal folds palsy, perinatal complications, infection, autoimmune diseases, oncological and post-intubation subglottic stenosis. Currently, congenital malformation syndromes turned out to be the most common indication for tracheotomy. Conclusions. 1. Tracheotomy indications in children have changed over the years. 2. There is increasing number of tracheotomies due to various congenital defects. 3. New groups of tracheotomy indications among children are autoimmune diseases and injuries; those groups have the highest average of age. 4. The result of effective pharmacological treatment of laryngeal hemangiomas is the lack of tracheotomy performed in this indication. 5. The number of tracheotomies performed due to post-intubation stenosis has decreased. 6. Vocal cords palsy as an indication for tracheotomy in children is most often a complication of cardiac surgery due to congenital heart defect; this group of patient’s is the youngest among all. 7. Viral infections are still the tracheotomy indication among children.","PeriodicalId":55698,"journal":{"name":"New Medicine","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42323124","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}

It can be avoided by preventive measures. Especially, deep caries lesions in immature permanent teeth constitute a serious clinical problem for contemporary pediatric dentistry. It is caused by a different anatomical and histological structure compared to mature permanent teeth. The aim of the study was to present contemporary methods of deep caries treatment in histologically and morphologically immature teeth with currently used materials. The literature review was based on Pubmed and Elsevier databases (2005-2018) and two articles out-of-range. The search criteria were: “caries”, “remineralization”, “indirect capping” and “immature teeth”. Development in medicine and biomedical science leads to creating more modern procedural records when it comes to deep caries treatment. They are based on minimally invasive dentistry. Development of bioengineering enables creation of more biocompatible materials which do not have irritating influence on dental pulp. These materials allow deeper remineralization of dental tissues. Deep caries treatment still involves usage of restorations with calcium hydroxide, zinc oxide with eugenol and glass ionomers. Good cooperation with patient, prospects of early diagnosis, and regular examinations of treated teeth have great impact on success of treatment. Further research on methods of diagnosis and treatment needs to be carried out. They should allow regeneration of early qualitative changes to avoid quantitative damages in a tooth’s hard tissue.","PeriodicalId":55698,"journal":{"name":"New Medicine","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45694563","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}

The dentist’s attitude towards treating children influences the success of dental treatment and can be shaped by the healthcare system, appropriate preparation for treating young patients, and the use of various methods of cooperation. Aim. The aim of the study was to present the dentists’ approach to the treatment of juvenile patients and to discuss treatment procedures and factors, which have an influence on communication and treatment planning. Material and methods. The study included 736 dentists. The questionnaire consisted of 46 questions and covered topics related to socio-demographic data, number of treated children, pharmacological premedication, adaptation visits, treatment of deciduous and immature permanent teeth, behavioral methods of shaping the child’s attitude, non--cooperative patients as well as dentophobia. Results. Amount of 577 questionnaires were qualified for the final analysis, women: 85.4%, men: 14.6%. The mean age was 33 ± 8.2 years. Only 17.9% of the respondents had a specialization, including 24.3% in pedodontics. Among the respondents, 85.1% treated young children up to the age of 6. Treatment of deciduous teeth without local anesthesia was performed by 18.5% of dentists. According to 84.9% of the respondents, it was possible to overcome the child’s dentophobia thanks to adaptation visits. Prophylactic procedures were performed by 98.0% of physicians, while pharmacological premedication was used by 16.7%. As much as 93.5% of dentists used glass ionomer cement to restore deciduous teeth. Non-cooperative children were referred to treatment under general anesthesia by 71.5% of the respondents. Disabled patients were treated by 60.5%. Every fourth dentist used child immobilization and every sixth expressed an interest in pedodontics courses. Conclusions. The vast majority of dentists treat children, including the youngest up to 6 years old, as well as disabled children. Almost every dentist performs preventive treatment. There is a strong correlation between the age of the dentist and the type of treatment used. Uncooperative children are referred for treatment under general anesthesia.

Nasal septum is an anatomical structure which not only separates both nasal cavities, but is also a supporting element for the external nose, and has an impact on its physiology. Structural abnormalities of the nasal septum, such as deviations and defects, affect the airflow in the nasal cavities. Nasal septal perforation is one of the factors that impair nasal patency due to secondary pathological changes. There are various treatment options, depending on the symptoms reported and the stage of septal lesions. Treatment strategy is selected individually for each patient. Aim. The aim of this paper was to discuss the symptoms, diagnostic methods and treatment options in children with nasal septal perforation. Patients of the Department of Paediatric Otolaryngology, Medical University of Warsaw, were included in the analysis. Material and methods. We present cases of 18 patients aged between 3 and 17 years, admitted to the Outpatient ENT Clinic at the Department of Paediatric Otolaryngology, Medical University of Warsaw. Results. A total of 18 patients aged between 3 and 17 years (mean age 12.83 years, SD = 4.34) reported to our clinic. In most cases, nasal septal perforation developed as a complication of septoplasty (4) or nasal trauma. Nasal bleeding and crusting were the most commonly reported symptoms. Perforation was accompanied by external nasal deformity in about 1/3 of patients. Conclusions. Only few reports on paediatric patients with nasal septal perforation may be found in literature.

Early childhood caries affects 41.1% of Polish 3-year-olds. If left untreated, it can affect overall health, cause local infections, and reduce quality of life. Objective. To evaluate the first dental visits of children in the first three years of life in the Warsaw agglomeration. Material and methods. A questionnaire survey of parents/legal guardians of children aged 12 to 36 months, living in the Warsaw agglomeration was conducted. The questionnaire included questions about socioeconomic factors (level of education and age of both parents, number of children in the family, economic level of the family) and the child's first dental visit (age and reason for visiting). Statistical analysis was performed on data obtained from correctly completed questionnaires (Spearman's rank correlation coefficient to assess the relationships between selected variables and using the chi-square test to compare the percentages, p <0.05). Results. 496 out of 827 returned questionnaires were included in the analysis. The mean age of the children was 24.16 ± 6.92 months. 249 (50.2%) children visited the dentist. The most common reasons for the first visit were: dental check-up (47.4%), tooth trauma (19.7%) and the presence of carious lesions (13.3%). The first visits due to trauma were usually reported by children aged 12-18 months. Only 57 (11.5%) children visited the dentist in the first year of life. Among them, the most frequent reason for the visit was check-up (34; 6.9% of the entire study group). There was an increasing frequency of the first dental visit with the age of the child, as well as a negative correlation between the level of education of parents and the visit caused by toothache, abscess or the presence of carious lesions. Tooth decay as a reason of first dental visit was also associated with the lower age of the mother. Conclusions.
