Abstract:
Introduction/Objective. Sudden death in children may occur as a result of many diseases and accidents, while the cause often remains unknown. There are different terms in the literature that represent the causes of sudden death in children. The aim of our study was to determine the most common cause of sudden death in children admitted to the Clinic of Pediatrics. Methods. The retrospective study was conducted in the period from January 1, 1995 to December 31, 2015 and included 49 patients, aged from 10 days to 17 years, in whom death occurred in the Emergency Department and in the first 48 hours of hospitalization. Results. In 23 patients (47%) the cause of death was infection, in 10 patients (20%) heart failure, four patients (8%) died due to status epilepticus, the same number of patients (8%) died due to aspiration of a foreign body, while the rest of the patients died due to diabetic ketoacidosis (2%), rickets (2%), carbon monoxide poisoning (2%), hemolytic anemia (2%), suicide by hanging (2%), drowning (2%), sudden infant death syndrome (2%), and sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (2%). Most of the patients in our study were infants (43%). Conclusion. Our study shows that infants are at the highest risk of sudden death, while the most frequent causes of death are infections and cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract:
Research has shown that young children have some understandings of death. However, adults are hesitant (or even avoidant) to discuss death with young children for fear that they will scare them, or they are not sure what to tell them. Sessions were part of this project, educating adults in a child’s development and how that development affects what young children understand about death. The three sessions, completed over two weeks, included three topics including anxieties the adult may have about death, cognitive and emotional development of the young child, and the adult’s role in discussing death with young children. Participants completed a pre- and post-test. Results indicated that adults felt more comfortable discussing the death of a person with a young child, as well as feeling less avoidant of having those discussions.

Abstract:
This thesis explores associations that could have an impact on the experience of a parental death in childhood. It suggests a methodology for establishing the prevalence of parental bereavement that helps the author to explore quantitatively any associated links between parental death in childhood and delinquency rates in 16-year-olds. As well as helping to establish the prevalence of parental death in childhood, the methodology also enables the author to explore possible contributing factors that could increase a child's vulnerability to the experience of parental death such as social class, age and gender of child and dead parent these are presented as a set of risk variables in which the data shows an increase in a parentally bereaved child's susceptibility to delinquent behaviour. It also compares themes within essays written by parentally bereaved children and none parentally bereaved children. The exploration used the Thematic Apparition Test coding as a framework from which to identify differences in the stories told about the future by each comparison group.

Abstract:
Only in the past two decades have adults become aware that terminally ill children do know at some level when they are dying. This research used a case study format to investigate the changes in how one child dying of leukemia viewed herself. Specifically, it looked for symbolic and emotional themes which emerged in the material, including Decathexis (separation) and Rebirth. Each of twenty-eight drawings created by this child was analyzed in-depth for content by the researcher. Convergent material from hospital records and a parent journal supplemented the stories and teacher notes accompanying the drawings. Six experts from three countries also categorized each drawing for images of Decathexis and Rebirth. Initially, themes of threats, dreams, trickery and intuition appeared along with fear and sadness. Once the child seemed to clearly understand that she would die, these changed to fading and distancing images, indicative of separation. There was a slight increase in images supporting themes of resignation and happiness. Physical deterioration and resistance appeared throughout the series as distortions of a girl and dilapidated and edged houses. Themes of a new home and travel also appeared throughout. The classification by experts according to Decathexis and Rebirth resulted in unanimous agreement on twenty-five per cent of the pictures and two thirds of the experts agreed on the placement of eighty-six per cent of the pictures. It would appear that on one level the child knew from the beginning that she would die, but at another level she resisted that knowledge for a time. As clear awareness of death was developing, defensive themes such as trickery and dreaming appeared in stories which accompanied the drawings. However, the images, themes and convergent material suggest that she reconciled the dual awareness levels and worked towards acceptance of her fate.

Abstract:
This study addressed the question: “What meaning do social workers give to their experience of working with families with children facing death?” Its purpose was to explore the meaning social workers attach to their unique professional role in this particular area of practice. Four social work participants from a children’s hospital were recruited, chosen because of their experience in working directly with this population. Criteria for inclusion were a minimum education level of a Master’s Degree in Social Work and at least two years of experience working in the hospital setting. A qualitative descriptive approach, drawing on phenomenology, was utilized. Each participant was individually interviewed for one hour using a semi-structured format. A phenomenological approach to data analysis was used. After careful review, four areas of meaning-making emerged: what brought participants to this work; meaning-making within the function of the role; connection and companionship; and, challenges faced within the role. These results add to the relatively small base of knowledge regarding the experience of social workers who work in pediatric end-of-life care in a healthcare setting.

Abstract:
Background: Early diagnosis, identification of the pathogen and time until the start of adequate antibiotic therapy are important variables that improve the clinical outcomes of meningitis in children. However, even with an early approach and adequate treatment with effective antibiotics, death and neurological sequelae may occur as a result of the infection. Objectives: Determine the lethality rate of meningitis among children aged 0 to 9 years and define the factors associated with mortality. Design and setting: Case-control study based on secondary data from the Notifiable Diseases Information System (SINAN). Methods: It covers the notifications registered in 2019 and includes the variables: deaths, age group, sex, residence in the Legal Amazon or in the Semi-Arid. Statistical analysis - Odds-Ratio (OR) - was performed using Microsoft Excel for Windows®. Results: The deaths of children due to meningitis, in the studied period, totaled 316, which corresponds to a lethality rate of 4.2%. The associated risk factors were: residence in the Legal Amazon (OR = 3.7) and in the Semi-Arid (OR = 2.2). The age group (OR = 1.6) and sex (OR = 1.0) were not associated with death from meningitis. Conclusions: Reside in the Legal Amazon and the Semi-Arid are risk factors justified by the scarcity of resources and the isolation of these regions, resulting in precarious and more delayed health care. This factor culminates in deaths due to the need for early intervention and treatment of meningitis. The low educational rates found in these areas, culminates in poor access to information regarding the importance of vaccination.

Abstract:
Drowning is a dramatic situation, with very serious consequences and with economic impact, since when it does not cause death, causes sequelae that will affect the victim throughout his life. With regard to children, the prevalence of drowning death is higher than deaths caused by tuberculosis or measles. Considering the context of these accidents, it is known that the immersion occurs without shouting or "noises", which makes it even more difficult to detect and rescue. Rescue agility is crucial for the survival of victims, as after being submerged for only 2 minutes, the victim loses consciousness and after 4 minutes brain damage can become permanent and unalterable. Even if they survive from being submerged for some time, the victims may suffer from severe and often irreversible neurological sequelae [1, 2]. From this perspective, developing safety mechanisms for children requires knowledge of the unique needs of these individuals, arising from the cognitive and motor development of this stage of human development [3, 4]. To foster this problem, the work proposes to develop a usual garment that contains an integrated rescue device for children. The main design challenge is the harmonious matching of the rescue device's function with the fashion item, making it unnoticed. The work presented is feasibility study (online survey), which aims to verify the acceptance of parents/guardians regarding the launch of such product concept, which is presently under development, and the requisites that it should comply with.

Abstract:
Pneumonia is the leading cause of death in children worldwide and the great majority of these deaths occur in resource-limited settings. Effective case management is an important strategy to reduce pneumonia related morbidity and mortality in children. Pneumonia case management includes appropriate choice of antibiotic and additional supportive treatments, prompt and appropriate referral for inpatient care, and management of treatment failure

Abstract:
Implementation of the section 2302 of the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) enabled children enrolled in Medicaid/Children's Health Insurance Program with a prognosis of 6 months to live to use hospice care while continuing treatment for their terminal illness. Although concurrent hospice care became available more than a decade ago, little is known about the socio-demographic and health characteristics of children who received concurrent care; health care services they received while enrolled in concurrent care, their continuity, management, intensity, fragmentation; and the costs of care. The purpose of this study was to answer these questions using national data from the Centers of Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), which covered the first three years of ACA – from January 1, 2011, to December 31, 2013.The database included records of 18,152 children younger than the age of 20, who were enrolled in Medicaid hospice care in the sampling time frame. Children in the database also had a total number of 42,764 hospice episodes. Observations were excluded if the date of birth or death was missing or participants were older than 21 years. To create this database CMS data were merged with three other complementary databases: the National Death Index (NDI) that provided information on death certificates of children; the U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey that provided information on characteristics of communities where children resided; CMS Hospice Provider of Services files and CMS Hospice Utilization and Payment files were used for data on hospice providers, and with a database of rural areas created by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA). In total, 130 variables were created, measuring demographics and health characteristics of children, characteristics of health providers, community characteristics, clinical characteristics, costs of care, and other variables.

Abstract:
Appalachia is one of the most medically underserved areas in the nation. The region has provider shortages and limited healthcare infrastructure. Children and adolescents in this area are in poor health and do not receive the needed quality care. Implementation of section 2302 of the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) enabled children enrolled in Medicaid/Children's Health Insurance Program with a terminal illness to use hospice care while continuing treatment for their terminal illness. In addition to being more comprehensive than standard hospice care, this relatively new type of care is more culturally congruent with the end-of-life values of rural Appalachian families, who often view standard hospice as hastening death. The overall goal of this project was to investigate access to pediatric concurrent hospice care in Appalachia. Our central hypothesis was that concurrent care reduces rural/urban disparities in access to hospice care. Data from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) used in this project was used and included 1,788 children who resided in the Appalachian region– from January 1, 2011, to December 31, 2013. Observations with missing birth dates, death dates, and participants older than 21 years were removed from the final sample. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) databases were created to map the boundaries of the Appalachian region, hospice locations, and driving times to them.

Abstract:
Purpose/Background: Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) have an impact on health throughout the lifespan (Filletti et al., 1999; Hughes et al., 2017). These experiences range from physical and mental abuse, substance abuse in the home, parental separation or loss, financial instability, acute illness or injury, witnessing violence in the home or community, and incarceration of family members (Hughes et al., 2017). Understanding and screening for ACEs in children with urinary incontinence can help practitioners identify psychological stress as a potentially modifiable risk factor. Methods: A 5-month chart review was performed identifying English speaking patients ages 6-11 years presenting to the outpatient urology office for an initial visit with a primary diagnosis of urinary incontinence. Charts were reviewed for documentation of individual or family risk factors for ACEs exposure, community risk factors for ACEs exposures, and records where no related documentation was included. Results: For the thirty-nine patients identified, no community risk factors were noted in the charts. Seventy-nine percent of patients had one or more individual or family risk factors documented. Implications for Nursing Practice This chart review indicates that a significant percentage of pediatric, school-aged patients presenting with urinary incontinence have exposure to ACEs. A formal assessment for ACEs at the time of initial presentation would be helpful to identify those at highest risk.

Abstract:
Malaria, HIV and tuberculosis (TB) are significant public health concerns in Mozambique. Malaria was the fourth leading cause of death in the country in 2019, accounting for 42% of deaths among children under 5 years of age (Mugabe et al., 2021; USAID, 2018). Mozambique is among the top eight countries with the highest HIV prevalence; with the second highest mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) rate in the world (Fuente-Soro et al., 2021; Nacarapa et al., 2021). The incidence of TB is rising, with pediatric TB cases almost tripling in recent years (WHO, 2020b; Nguenha et al., 2018; Orlando et al., 2018). Mozambique has one of the highest global incidence of malaria-HIV and TB-HIV co-infection, which raises the likelihood of poor clinical outcomes (Moon et al., 2019; USAID, 2018). This rapid literature review highlights key aspects of the epidemiology of malaria, HIV and TB in Mozambique and challenges in prevention, detection and treatment; and surveys select interventions that seek to address these challenges. This is part of a series of reports looking into Epidemiology of Malaria, human immune deficiency virus (HIV) and tuberculosis (TB) across a set of African Nations.

Abstract:
Malaria, human immune deficiency virus (HIV) and tuberculosis (TB) are leading causes of death and public health threat to millions in Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). The DRC is the second most malaria affected sub-Saharan African country after Nigeria, with malaria being the leading cause of death in children under 5 years (Lechthaler et al., 2019). The HIV prevalence in the country in the adult population stands at 1%, with extensive variations by region (UNAIDS, 2021c). The DRC is considered a high burden country for TB and HIV infection (Linguissi et al., 2017). This rapid review emphasizes significant elements of the epidemiology of malaria, HIV, and TB in DRC, as well as limitations in prevention, detection, and treatment, and examines a few interventions that aim to address these limitations. Evidence utilised is a mixture of the most recent grey literature NGO (programme reports and related documents) literature supplemented by peer reviewed academic literature from the past five years and national survey data when available. Although the clinical disease aspects of malaria, HIV and TB are well-researched there is less research available on socio-demographic variation, disease control challenges and interventions targeting these in the DRC. This is part of a series of reports looking into Epidemiology of Malaria, human immune deficiency virus (HIV) and tuberculosis (TB) across a set of African Nations.
