Introduction: The care at the end of children's lives must be sensitive to the needs of the child and their family. An understanding of the illness is required from the perspective of parents faced with the death of their child, in order to improve quality and guide the development of end-of-life care in Paediatrics.
Method: A retrospective observational study was conducted between June 2014 and June 2017 using a questionnaire, to assess the needs, experiences, and satisfaction with the care received, from a sample of parents who lost a child due to a foreseeable cause.
Unlabelled: The aim of the present study is to clarify the association between environmental exposures and non-tuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) lymphadenitis, during the last decade, in a population of children. In children up to 14 years of age in a pediatric tertiary hospital, all cases of NTM lymphadenopathy with a specific microbiological diagnosis, from January 2004 to January 2015, were reviewed. This is a case-control study (1:5 proportion), in which the prevalence of environmental factors between cases and controls was compared by means of a multivariate logistic regression analysis.
