Objectives: to develop and assess the quality of a care protocol for safe insulin use in hospitalized children and adolescents.

Methods: a methodological study developed in three stages: scoping review, protocol development, and quality assessment. The scoping review followed the JBI recommendations, using the PRISMA-ScR checklist. The protocol was constructed according to the Guide for the Construction of Healthcare Protocols, and quality assessment was carried out byjudges using AGREE II.

Results: the protocol achieved a quality rating of 94.4% in the scope and purpose domain; 90.4% in stakeholder involvement; 96.1% in rigor of development; 95.2% in clarity of presentation; 92.8% in applicability; 97.6% in editorial independence; and 92.8% for overall guideline assessment. Judges made suggestions, most of which were accepted.

Final Considerations: the protocol was constructed and assessed as a quality instrument recommended for use by healthcare professionals in the context of insulin therapy in pediatrics.

The aim of the study was to determine the test-retest reliability of MMN and LDN recorded to simple speech contrasts in children with listening difficulties. MMN and LDN responses were recorded from Fz and Cz electrodes for a /da/-/ga/ contrast twice within a 10-day period. To extract MMN and LDN, auditory-evoked responses to /ga/ stimuli presented alone were subtracted from the responses to /ga/ presented within an oddball sequence.
