Archimedes July 2022: Broken hearts and trying to fix them

We are faced in paediatrics with some very, very difficult situations. Where our humanity and medical training come to the fore - in working with families dealing with the cliff edge of their child’s mortality - is where we need to put the same emotional and intellectual effort we would want if the tables were turned. At these times, knowing our advice is based on the best available evidence may have even greater importance.
This month we address this in two different fields of care. The ED, and traumatic cardiac arrest [https://adc.bmj.com/content/107/7/695.1] and in the neonatal intensive care, with a resistant intracardiac thrombosis [https://adc.bmj.com/content/early/2022/05/10/archdischild-2022-323789].

Archimedes May 2022: Micro Magic

This month we go all buggy, thinking about how we can use EU-level regulatory frameworks to help us act in our clinical lives (https://adc.bmj.com/content/107/5/507.2). We also address the persuasive power of an accelerated BCG reaction in children… fort noted by Koch of Koch’s Postulates in rodents (https://adc.bmj.com/content/107/5/507.1), and ask a partially useful question that might save many hours and many many stabs - are CVC concentrations of tobramycin good enough to judge how to dose in children? (https://adc.bmj.com/content/107/5/512).
