A recorder/time coach decreases time errors during neonatal resuscitation: A randomized, simulation-based clinical trial.

Aim: To evaluate the effects of a hands-off recorder/time coach versus an additional hands-on healthcare provider on Neonatal Resuscitation Program (NRP) algorithm compliance and team member workload in neonatal resuscitations.

Methods: Two interventions were studied using a 2 × 2 factorial design: an additional hands-on team member and the presence of a designated, hands-off recorder/time coach. The recorder/time coach documented interventions and delivered pre-specified prompts at defined points during the resuscitation.

Videolaryngoscopy versus direct laryngoscopy for tracheal intubation in neonates.

Background: Establishment of a secure airway is a critical part of neonatal resuscitation in the delivery room and the neonatal intensive care unit. Videolaryngoscopy has the potential to facilitate successful endotracheal intubation, and decrease adverse consequences of a delay in airway stabilization. Videolaryngoscopy may enhance visualization of the glottis and intubation success in neonates.

Sexual harassment in middle and high school children and effects on physical and mental health.

Sexual harassment can be physical interaction and touching, as well as, psychological, environmental, or via Internet and text messaging. An online survey in an urban clinic asked children, aged 12 to 18 years the following: demographic data, height and weight, chronic medical conditions, healthcare use, questions concerning sexual harassment-witnessed and exposure, and finally questions from the Pediatric Symptom Checklist (PSC-35). Overall, 124 of 210 (59%) of the 12- to 18-year-olds surveyed had experienced sexual harassment, with the predominance being female 69% (80/116) versus 48% (49/92) male.
