Non-specific symptoms and difficulty in collecting urine specimens make the diagnosis of urinary tract infection (UTI) challenging in children. However, timely diagnosis and initiation of therapy are essential to prevent complications. Children with recurrent UTIs require detailed evaluation and follow-up for optimal management. We report key updates from the revised evidence-based practice guidelines of the Indian Society of Pediatric Nephrology for UTIs and primary vesicoureteric reflux.

India introduced competency-based medical education (CBME) in the year 2019. There is often confusion between terms like ability, skill, and competency. The provided curriculum encourages teaching and assessing skills rather than competencies. Though competency includes skill, it is more than a mere skill, and ignoring the other aspects like communication, ethics, and professionalism can compromise the teaching of competencies as well as their intended benefits to the patient and the society. The focus on skills also undermines the assessment of relevant knowledge...

The three pathophysiologic contributors to septic shock include varying combinations of hypovolemia (relative > absolute), decreased vascular tone or vasoplegia, and myocardial dysfunction. The three pillars of hemodynamic support include fluid boluses, vasopressors with or without inotrope infusions. The three end-points of hemodynamic resuscitation include an adequate cardiac output, adequate mean arterial pressure (MAP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) for organ perfusion, and avoiding congestion (worse filling) parameters...

BACKGROUND: The application of splints is one of the most used methods to prolong the life span of peripheral intravenous cannulation (PIVC). OBJECTIVE: To assess the effect of splint application on the functional duration of PIVC in neonates. METHODS: This systematic review and meta-analysis identified, appraised, and synthesized available evidence from randomized and quasi-randomized controlled trials (RCT) related to the effects of splint application compared to no splinting on the functional duration of PIVC and its associated complications in term and preterm neonates...

OBJECTIVE: To determine the difference in time to attainment of full enteral feeds between fetal growth restricted (FGR) preterm neonates with and without absent/reversed end-diastolic flow (AREDF). Secondary objectives were to compare the short-term outcomes including the incidence of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) and feed intolerance between the two groups and to determine the factors affecting the time to attainment of full enteral feeds (FEF) among preterm FGR neonates. METHODS: A prospective cohort study was conducted among consecutive preterm FGR neonates delivered at 28-36 weeks gestation admitted in level III NICU...

We included all children aged upto 12years who were hospitalized and screened them for PID. Children were screened for suspected IPD using Jeffrey Modell Foundation (JMF) Criteria; any child who satisfied at least 2 out of 10 warning signs was further evaluated for PIDs...

OBJECTIVE: To develop gender and gestational age-specific reference standards for segmental limb lengths in term neonates. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted in a tertiary hospital in Tamil Nadu from June, 2019 to October, 2020. Term neonates were included through convenient sampling. Segmental length of upper and lower limbs was measured using non-stretchable steel measuring tape and total body length was measured with infantometer. Gestational age-specific mean length of all limb segments and segmental index with reference to total body length were calculated...

OBJECTIVES: To assess the effectiveness of using mustard seed filled pillows in preventing deformational plagiocephaly (DP) in premature infants. METHODS: A prospective open label randomized trial was conducted in a tertiary care hospital in south India. Eligible preterm infants born at ≤32 weeks and <1500 g admitted in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) were randomly allocated to the intervention and control groups. In addition to standard nesting, the intervention group was positioned using a mustard pillow, while the control group was positioned using nesting alone...
