Birthrates in the United States have been on a relatively constant and significant downward trajectory since the 1950s. While medicine has improved in the field of infertility, many still struggle with the issue. Jenna Miller, MD, is an associate professor of Pediatrics-University of Missouri-Kansas City and the program director for Pediatric Critical Care at Children's Mercy Hospital. She is also the author of a new book, Navigating Your Fertility as a Woman in Medicine. In her book, Miller shares her infertility journey to help others who might face this journey themselves. It is a roadmap for how physicians deal with fertility and infertility and the options available when family planning is put off until after training. This is a critical topic that doesn't receive enough attention from physician leaders. From deans of medical schools to editors of medical journals, from residency directors to those working in HR, understanding, supporting, and reducing the barriers for women physicians to achieve fertility is needed. For woman physicians to achieve full gender equity, an understanding of the physiologic changes happening for women physicians in the midst of their training is needed. @JennaMillerKC Learn more about the American Association for Physician Leadership at www.physicianleaders.org

Approach to Pediatric Trauma Welcome to PICU Doc On Call, A Podcast Dedicated to Current and Aspiring Intensivists.I'm Pradip Kamat coming to you from Children's Healthcare of Atlanta/Emory University School of Medicine and I'm Rahul Damania, from Cleveland Clinic Children's Hospital. We are two Pediatric ICU physicians passionate about all things MED-ED in the PICU. PICU Doc on Call focuses on interesting PICU cases & management in the acute care pediatric setting so let's get into our episode.Welcome to our Episode today of a 7 yo M who presents to the PICU after a severe Motor Vehicle Accident.Here is the case presented by RahulA 7-year-old male child is admitted to the PICU after sustaining severe trauma. The patient was brought to the emergency department after a motor vehicle accident that involved an 18-wheeler truck & the family's car; in this severe accident the 7 yo was noted to be restrained however upon impact was ejected from the vehicle. He was unconscious and had multiple injuries, including a laceration on the head and bruising on the chest. The EMS was activated and the patient presented to the ED for acute stabilization. Upon examination, the patient was found to have a Glasgow Coma Scale score of 8, indicating a serious head injury. He had multiple bruises and abrasions on the chest and arms, and his pulse was rapid and weak. The patient was resuscitated with colloid and blood products, intubated, and transferred to the pediatric intensive care unit for further management.Notably, a CT scan of the head showed a skull fracture and a subdural hematoma. A chest X-ray showed multiple rib fractures and bilateral pulmonary opacities with no evidence of pneumothorax. The patient was also found to have a grade 2 liver laceration and a splenic injury. Pelvic x-ray and cardiac FAST exam were unrevealing.To summarize key elements from this case, this patient has:A traumatic brain injuryPulmonary contusions and is at risk for PARDSLiver and spleen injuryAnemiaPertinent negative includes: No pelvic injuries or injuries to great vessels in the chestRahul, let's approach the PICU medical management of this case based on a culmination of various guidelines published in the Pediatric Critical Care literature. Namely, let's use this case to dive deep into guidelines for:Traumatic brain injury (TBI)****Transfusion and Anemia Expertise Initiative (****TAXI)pediatric blunt liver and spleen injury management, are also known as the ATOMAC protocol, as well as general PICU management of acute trauma.As we take the management of this pediatric trauma patient in a systems-based fashion let's first go into the Management of Pediatric Traumatic Brain Injuries, can you start us off with some key management considerations?Based on the March 2019 TBI guidelines published in Pediatric Critical Care Medicine in 2019 (PCCM20(3S):p S1-S82, March 2019)This patient should have an ICP monitor or even an EVD placed for CSF diversion in consultation with the NS and trauma team. A CPP of at least >50 in our 7 yo patient and ICP < 20 mm Hg has been shown to improve outcomes and reduce mortality.Just as a quick review, CPP stands for cerebral perfusion pressure, which is the pressure that maintains blood flow to the brain. The formula for CPP is:CPP = MAP (mean arterial pressure) - ICP (intracranial pressure)Monitoring does not affect outcomes directly; rather the information from monitoring can be used to direct treatment decisions. Treatment informed by data from monitoring may result in better outcomes than treatment informed solely by data from clinical assessment. In short, it is important to have qualitative and quantitative data to optimize your decision-making.As we talked about ICP control is so crucial for

Welcome to PICU Doc On Call, A Podcast Dedicated to Current and Aspiring Intensivists. I'm Pradip Kamat and I'm Kate Phelps, a second-year pediatric critical care fellow joining Pradip and Rahul today! I'm Rahul Damania and we are coming to you from Children's Healthcare of Atlanta - Emory University School of Medicine. Today we are honored to have Dr. John Berkenbosch- senior author of the Prevention and Management of Pain, Agitation, Neuromuscular Blockade, and Delirium in Critically Ill Pediatric Patients with consideration of the ICU Environment and Early Mobility (PANDEM) guidelines recently published in February 2022 issue of the Pediatric Critical Care journal. Dr. Berkenbosch is a Professor of Pediatrics and Pediatric Critical Care at the University of Louisville School of Medicine, and continues to be nationally recognized as an expert in pediatric procedural sedation with multiple publications relating to sedation practices, particularly novel uses of procedural sedation medications and regimens. He currently also serves as co-chair for the American College of Critical Care Medicine's Task Force guidelines for sedation and analgesia in critically ill children which we will be discussing in today's episode. Dr. Berkenbosch's research interests have primarily focused on pediatric procedural sedation and implementation of technology advances in Pediatric Critical Care and have resulted in 57 publications as well as several book chapters Rahul: Dr. Berkenbosch welcome to the PICU Doc ON call podcast. I would also like to point out that the free full access to the PANDEM guidelines is available online athttp://pccmjournal.org ( pccmjournal.org) Dr. Berkenbosch: Thanks Rahul and Pradip. I am excited to be on the PICU Doc on Call Podcast to discuss the PANDEM guidelines. I want to first start by giving a huge shout-out to all the team members who contributed to these guidelines' development. This is a topic about which I am quite passionate but also one that provides much-needed guidance regarding pain/agitation/delirium to our entire pediatric critical care community! KATE: Dr. Berkenbosch, the rationale for the development of the PANDEM guidelines was the high variability in pediatric sedation and analgesia. Can you speak to this variability and why it was important to address that variability? That is a great question, the variability has been one of the key motivators in the creation of these guidelines. We also wanted to develop a guideline that was broader in scope than what was currently available. The ICU Liberation bundle provided a paradigm for liberating critically ill patients from mechanical ventilation and the ICU environment and as we delved into developing these guidelines, we realized that many elements of the ICU liberation bundle aligned very closely with PICU sedation and analgesia so it made imminent sense to incorporate all of these topics into the guidelines, an acknowledgment if you will, that PICU liberation & sedation go hand in hand! Absolutely, as we have stated in our prior episodes, the paradigm is: intubate → ventilate → liberate, and sedation/analgesia is intertwined in each of these processes. Dr. Berkenbosch, as we get into the guidelines, can you please highlight how the search strategy for these guidelines were derived? Of course, this was a remarkable group effort solicited by the Society of Critical Care Medicine. We were initially modeled after the adult PAD (pain, agitation, and delirium) guidelines task force but, as described already, extended beyond that to include Pediatric Pain, Agitation, Neuromuscular Blockade, and Delirium in addition to the PICU Environment and Early Mobility. It was comprised of 29 national experts who collaborated over a ten-year period. The full task force gathered annually in person during the Society of Critical Care Medicine Congress for progress reports and further strategizing with the final face-to-face meeting occurring in...
