Fostering successful interprofessional collaboration remains a challenge in pediatric rehabilitation. A coaching approach can enhance client-centered care and provide a transdisciplinary framework for collaboration. The purpose of this longitudinal study was to evaluate the impact of Solution-Focused Coaching in Pediatric Rehabilitation (SFC-peds) training on pediatric rehabilitation practitioners from multiple disciplinary backgrounds. Thirty-seven service providers (SPs) completed surveys at baseline and three follow-ups. Quantitative and qualitative findings both suggested that the training proved an effective way to achieve substantial and sustainable improvements in SFC knowledge, confidence, and use of SFC-peds techniques among participating SPs. The educational intervention also facilitated the integration of a strengths-based, solution-building approach at an individual and team level, providing SPs with a common language and shared framework for client-centered care and optimal collaboration with colleagues. A need for practice opportunities tailored to unique care contexts was identified. Future research should further explore the impacts of a SFC-peds approach on interprofessional teams, as well as on health outcomes of clients.

Background: Medically refractory hypertonia (MRH) within the pediatric population causes severe disability and is difficult to treat. Neurosurgery for mixed MRH includes intrathecal baclofen (ITB) and lumbosacral ventral-dorsal rhizotomy (VDR). Surgical efficacy limitations can be mitigated by combining the two into a multimodal strategy.

The purpose of this review was to examine the effects of hip muscle botulinum toxin injections for the treatment of hip instability reported in studies of children with cerebral palsy. Searches in PubMed, CINAHL, and Web of Science were performed using the term hips combined with botulinum toxin and its various abbreviations and brand names. Reference lists and citations of the reviewed studies were also searched.

Cochrane Rehabilitation and the World Health Organization (WHO) Rehabilitation Program are collaborating to produce four Cochrane overviews of systematic reviews that synthesize the current evidence from health policy and systems research (HPSR) in rehabilitation. They will focus on the four pillars of HPSR identified by the Cochrane Effective Practice and Organization of Care (EPOC) taxonomy: delivery arrangements, financial arrangements, governance arrangements, and implementation strategies. The protocol describes why HPSR is currently needed in rehabilitation, provides detailed information on the four EPOC pillars in interaction with rehabilitation and reports the Cochrane methods that will be followed to produce the overviews.

Objective: To explore the application of short-peptide enteral nutrition formulation in mechanically ventilated pediatric patients with severe pneumonia and its impact on rehabilitation outcomes, providing practical clinical evidence for the nutritional support strategy in critically ill pneumonia children.
Methods: This study retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 90 neonatal pneumonia patients undergoing mechanical ventilation from May 2022 to December 2023. The patients were divided into an experimental group receiving short peptide enteral nutrition formulation via nasogastric tube and a control group receiving whole-protein enteral nutrition formulation via nasogastric tube.

Aims And Background: The study of the morphology of soft tissues as well as hard tissues of the orofacial region holds prime importance. A very less information is known about the lips (soft tissues) and maxillo-mandibular arches (hard tissue structures) in primary dentition. Henceforth, there is a need to classify, find the prevalence and correlation of various lip shapes, and arch forms in primary dentition.
