This podcast is a conversation between Dr Jan Aldridge, Consultant Clinical Psychologist at Martin House Children’s Hospice, Yorkshire, and Dr Bob Phillips, Consultant Paediatric Oncologist, about the challenges of working directly with children who are dying and their families. It’s based on a great paper from the Education and Practice section (ep.bmj.com/content/102/4/182) and we hope it brings to life some of the challenges we face. Conversation on this welcome!

This month, ADC's Social Media and Archimedes Editor Bob Phillips has learned quite a lot about things he never realised he never knew about - like chelation of heavy metals for altering behaviour in people with autistic spectrum disorder (adc.bmj.com/content/early/2018/07/14/archdischild-2018-315338), and if horse beats human in the race to help infants with botulism (adc.bmj.com/content/early/2018/07/14/archdischild-2018-315498).
Not all Archimedes questions need to be this rarified though - earaches, positron emission tomography and chloride channel activators are all just as welcome. Listen, enjoy, and share with your Grandparents just for fun.

There may be people old enough to remember chalk at school, or young enough to recall playing with massive sticks of it on the tarmac outside. That’s not relevant in this Archimedes though, as we grapple with renal stones and how to get rid of them (adc.bmj.com/content/103/8/806.1) and how much Vitamin D does a preterm need to have nicely crunchy bones (adc.bmj.com/content/103/8/808).
Does reading that make you think “How much wood does a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?”
Anyway - enjoy and share. And send in both your Archimedes and tongue twisters for future editions.

Severe acquired subglottic stenosis is a serious consequence of intubation for mechanical ventilation in neonatal intensive care unit graduates, especially in preterm infants, concludes a case-control study discussed in this podcast. The paper adds that this serious complication may be prevented by minimising trauma during intubations, avoiding recurrent extubation/reintubations and using appropriate sized endotracheal tubes.

After giving you all the heads-up on the process of doing an Archimedes last month, this month we address ways of improving breathing.
First, in the emergency department - we’re asking should you use pred or dex in wheeze (https://adc.bmj.com/content/103/7/707.1) and then in the neonatal intensive care unit where we’re questioning what sort of device to use to puff pressure into those teeny tiny noses? (https://adc.bmj.com/content/103/7/709).
We’ve got a spot of philosophy too.
