This podcast will give you an approach to using probiotics in paediatric population. In this episode, listeners will go through the following: define probiotics and describe how they may benefit children, identify clinical situations where probiotic use is supported by evidence, recognize the limitations and risks associated with probiotics in paediatrics, and apply evidence-based guidance when considering probiotics in common clinical scenarios. An author of this podcast has financial support from Baxter Corporation.

In this second deep dive, Glenda Gray examines why the global antibiotic pipeline is failing and how access gaps are fuelling resistance. She discusses GARDP's mission-driven research and development model, the neglect of paediatric antibiotics, and how shortages of first-line treatments drive reliance on last-resort drugs, worsening the antimicrobial resistance crisis.

Feeling like you can't do anything because you don't know where to start'—Parents' Perspectives of Barriers and Facilitators to Accessing Early Detection for Children at Risk of Cerebral PalsyAbstractBackground: Early detection of cerebral palsy (CP) risk is possible from 12 weeks corrected gestational age (CGA) using standardised assessments; however, up to half of children at risk are not referred early, missing out on early intervention. We investigated the barriers and facilitators to accessing early intervention from the perspective of parents of children who did not receive services by 6 months CGA.Methods: Parents of children with CP were invited to participate in qualitative semistructured interviews. Reflexive thematic analysis was used to analyse the data and develop themes.Results: Eight mothers of children who did not receive standardised screening participated in interviews, from which three themes, 'responding to delays', 'systemic barriers' and 'complexities of diagnosis', were developed from the data.Conclusions: Parents require more support to access and engage in early detection services; health system processes are difficult to navigate, and health professionals require education and training to recognise risk factors for CP in all health settings and refer promptly. Improving system processes, education and training and partnering early with parents to improve their experience when interacting with the health system may increase early engagement and optimise long-term outcomes for children at risk of CP and their families.Keywords: cerebral palsy; diagnosis; mothers; paediatrics; qualitative.Child: care, health and development (Open Access)https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40435382/

Dr. Tugce Balci - Medical Geneticist with London Health Sciences Centre and Dr. Sunita Venkateswaran - a paediatric neurologist and associate professor in the Department of Paediatrics at Western University joined Mike Stubbs in the 980 CFPL studios to talk about Rare Disease Day and the SWORD (Southwestern Ontario Rare Disease) program at LHSC.

Phenobarbital loading in the adult palliative cohort for refractory symptom management has been used for many years. However, there is little evidence, nor a guideline for palliative sedation for children at home.   What does this paper add? An initial loading dose of phenobarbital may provide enhanced and quicker relief of refractory symptoms in the paediatric palliative care cohort receiving home-based terminal care.   Implications for practice, theory, or policy? Further research is required to determine the efficacy of, and guidelines for administration of, a loading dose of phenobarbital for paediatric palliative care patients in the terminal phase, presenting with intractable symptoms.   Full paper available from:     https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/02692163251365440   If you would like to record a podcast about your published (or accepted) Palliative Medicine paper, please contact Dr Amara Nwosu:  a.nwosu@lancaster.ac.uk

Paediatric seizures are common, time-critical events and they're something most of us will deal with, whether that's pre-hospital, in the emergency department, or on the ward. They make up around 1–2% of ED attendances, and about 1 in 20 children will have a seizure at some point. Most seizures self-terminate, but the longer they go on the harder they are to stop, and the higher the risk of harm. In paediatric seizures, time really matters. In this episode we take a step-by-step look at how to assess and manage a child who's seizing. We start with the fundamentals; how seizures are defined and classified, what status epilepticus actually means in practice, and why recognising it early makes such a difference. We then dig into the physiology behind seizures, exploring why early benzodiazepines work well and why delayed treatment often doesn't. Understanding what's happening at a receptor level helps make sense of when to escalate treatment and why different drugs work at different stages of a prolonged seizure. Pharmacology is a big part of this episode. We talk through first- and second-line anti-seizure medications, routes of administration, and how effective they really are. We cover the EcLiPSE and ConSEPT trials comparing levetiracetam and phenytoin, and look at newer evidence from the Ket-Mid study and what that might mean for managing refractory status and thinking about RSI. We also work through the approach to cases, pre-hospital management and in-hospital care aligned with UK and European recommendations. There's a clear focus on febrile seizures too, separating simple from complex presentations and helping you decide who needs investigating, admitting, or reassuring and discharging. As ever, the aim is to turn guidelines and evidence into something usable on the shop floor. Paediatric seizures are stressful, but with a structured approach, early treatment, and good airway management, they're absolutely manageable and we can make a real difference on outcomes. Once again we'd love to hear any thoughts or feedback either on the website or via X @TheResusRoom! Simon, Rob & James
