Pharmacologic management of adolescent catatonia: A dual-case series.

Introduction: Catatonia is a syndrome characterized by psychomotor and behavioral disturbances and is associated with a substantially increased mortality risk in adolescent patients. There is a dearth of published literature describing treatment strategies for pediatric patients with catatonia. This dual-case series will describe the treatment course of 2 adolescent patients with catatonia at our pediatric inpatient psychiatric facility.

Patient-perceived understanding of home-going medication with transitions of care services at a pediatric institution.

Background: Transitions of care (TOC) is the coordination and continuity of health care as a patient transfers between different settings. This can include a wide range of services, such as medication reconciliation, patient counseling, bedside delivery of medications, and others that meet individual patient needs. In the pediatric population, patients are at increased risk of potential medication errors and subsequent harm owing to reduced patient and caregiver health literacy, limited dosage form availability, and errors in medication administration.

Behind enemy lines: Expressing locomotor movements of athletes in the National Rugby League Women's (NRLW) competition relative to opposition data.

We provide a novel analysis of the locomotor movements of athletes in the National Rugby League Women's (NRLW) competition by presenting the data of opposing teams expressed as a relative (%) difference and explore the association with match outcome. 117 rugby league athletes from the four NRLW clubs participated in this study. Mean speed (m·min), mean high-speed running (>12 km·h; m·min), and mean acceleration (m·s) were measured in 12 matches (370 individual match files) using the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS).
