"We want to include him in that journey": A qualitative descriptive study of parental experiences and considerations for sibling inclusion in the paediatric ICU.

Objectives: Siblings are an important yet often forgotten part of the paediatric intensive care unit (PICU) family experience. Commonly, siblings are supported through the experience by their parents; however, very little is known about parental experiences of providing this support. This study aims to explore parental experiences of supporting sibling inclusion in PICU.

Short midline catheters: High success rates for antibiotic therapy in children with cystic fibrosis.

Objective: Short midline catheter use in paediatric populations appears to be increasing, however data on success rates and efficacy are sparse. This study aims to describe the success rate when midline venous catheters are employed as a single device for intravenous antibiotic therapy in paediatric patients with cystic fibrosis.

Methods: A retrospective cohort study was performed in a single institution, retrieving electronic medical record data from July 2017 through March 2020.

Healthcare and associated costs related to type 2 diabetes in youth and adolescence: the TODAY clinical trial experience.

The economic issues related to medical treatments in youth with type 2 diabetes (T2D) are rarely reported and thus not fully understood. The Treatment Options for type 2 Diabetes in Adolescents and Youth clinical trial of youth recently diagnosed with T2D collected healthcare and related cost information from the largest cohort studied to date. Costs related to medical treatments and expenses faced by caregivers were identified over a 2-year period from 496 participants.

Respiratory physicians and clinic coordinators' attitudes to population-based cystic fibrosis carrier screening.

Method: A purpose-designed questionnaire was distributed to 111 respiratory physicians and 30 CF clinic coordinators throughout Australia.

The natural history and predictors of persistent problem behaviours in cystic fibrosis: a multicentre, prospective study.

Background: In cystic fibrosis (CF), problems with sleep, eating/mealtime behaviours, physiotherapy adherence and parental mental health issues are common, yet their natural history and the extent of service use to address them are unknown.

Objective: Follow up the 2007 cohort to determine: (1) prevalence of child sleep, eating/mealtime behaviours, physiotherapy adherence, and externalising/internalising problem behaviours and primary caregiver mental health status after a 3-year period; (2) natural history of child behaviours; (3) potentially modifiable predictors of persistent problems; and (4) service use for behaviours.

Design: Prospective cohort.
