Objective:To analyze and summarize the clinical features and short-medium term follow-up results of children with multisystem inflammatory syndrome(MIS-C)following coronavirus infection.Methods:The data of six children with MIS-C admitted to the Intensive Care Unit of Shanghai Children's Medical Center from January to March 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.Results:All six cases were in shock,requiring vasoactive drugs,and one case required invasive mechanical ventilation.All the six patients had multiple organ function injury and increased inflammation indicators.After admission,they received organ support,glucocorticoids and gamma globulin treatment.Two patients were treated with biological agents.Both organ function and inflammation indicators showed significantly improvement after therapy.Six patients had mild coronary artery widening.All patients had good prognosis following short-medium term follow-up.Conclusion:Children with severe MIS-C may suffer life-threatening hemodynamic instability.Timely assessment,active anti-inflammatory and organ support therapy can obtain favorable prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the current status and challenges of pediatric life support training in China and provide references for improving training quality.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted to collect data from pediatric life support training centers across the country,covering basic institutional information,training capacity and training faculty,training program funding,as well as existing challenges and issues.The domestic registry of training centers in 2023 was obtained through the American Heart Association's online platform.After contacting and verifying each center,an online questionnaire was distributed,and the aggregated data were statistically analyzed.Results:A total of 42 institutions participated in the survey,including 19 children's hospitals,14 general hospitals,6 maternal and child health hospitals,2 women and children’s hospitals,and 1 training institution.The distribution of training centers showed a concentration in coastal areas,with the top three provinces/municipalities being Guangdong(7/42,16.7%),Zhejiang(6/42,14.3%),and Shanghai(4/42,9.5%).As of December 31 2023,the 42 institutions had an annual basic life support(BLS)training volume of 8 587 individuals,the median was 120 (100,200),and an annual pediatric advanced life support(PALS)training volume of 2 448 individuals,the median was 30 (20,50).Among the 42 institutions,there were 598 BLS instructors and 306 PALS instructors.Among the surveyed institutions,24(24/42,57.1%)reported BLS instructor teams comprising fewer than 10 members,and 33(33/42,78.6%)reported PALS instructor teams comprising fewer than 10.Only 7 centers(7/42,16.7%)reported having dedicated funding support.The top three challenges were:training sessions occupying instructors’personal time(27/42,64.3%),low instructor compensation(16/42,38.1%),and issues with the data submission system(16/42,38.1%).Conclusion:Pediatric life support training centers in China are primarily children’s hospitals,with a geographical concentration in coastal areas,which is also reflected in the distribution of training scale and instructor resources.Most centers have relatively small training scales and limited instructor capacity,with many instructors conducting training during their personal time.These issues may hinder the implementation and effectiveness of training programs.

Objective:To explore the effect of applying the multi-disciplinary team(MDT)model led by specialized nursing care in the treatment carried out at early stage in intensive care unit of hyperbaric oxygen(ICU-HBO)for patients with brain complications after Stanford type A aortic dissection(AD)surgery.Method:From January 2018 to December 2020,a total of 18 patients with brain complications after AD surgery were included and treated by ICU-HBO with MDT model. The patients’ ventilator tolerance and weaning time,outcome,occurrence of adverse events,and satisfaction rate of nursing care were observed.Results:(1)Fifteen mechanically ventilated patients were successfully weaned off the machine after 1-5 times of ICU-HBO treatment.(2)Sixteen patients regained their consciousness to the normal level after 2-13 times of ICU-HBO treatments,with the total effective rate of 88.89%;two patients in persistent vegetative state(deep coma)discontinued the treatment after two times of ICU-HBO treatments as their family gave up. During the follow-up period of six months to two years,11 cases were found clinically cured,one case was considered effective,four cases lost contact,and the two cases that had gave up treatment died of complications.(3)No adverse medical event(related to safety)occurred during the ICU-HBO treatment.(4)The satisfaction rate of nursing care was 100%.Conclusion:In the early ICU-HBO treatment of patients with brain complications after Stanford type A AD surgery,the application of MDT mode led by specialized nursing care is beneficial to the treatment risk control,ensure the treatment effectiveness,and improve the long-term prognosis,and quality of life of AD patients.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics, treatment process and prognosis of children with severe side effects after chimeric antigen receptor T cell immunotherapy(CAR-T), so as to provide evidence for timely intervention after CAR-T treatment.Methods:From June 1, 2015 to May 31, 2020, children with cytokine release syndrome(CRS)or immune cell related neurotoxicity syndrome(ICANS)who were treated with CAR-T therapy in our hospital and revealed severe effects transferred to PICU were included in the study, and their clinical course and multiple laboratory examination data were systematically analyzed.Results:Seventeen children showed CRS reaction and entered PICU after CAR-T therapy.The most common clinical symptoms were respiratory distress(13 cases) and circulatory disorder(10 cases), of which 7 cases were complicated with severe ICANS.Serum interferon -γ(IFN-γ)and interleukin-6(IL-6)levels significantly increased after CAR-T cell infusion, reaching the peak at (5.1±1.6)days.The serum levels of IFN-γ and IL-6 in children with severe CRS were significantly higher than those in children with mild CRS(all P<0.05). The level of serum IL-6 in children with high tumor load was significantly higher than that in children with low tumor load( P<0.05). The mortality rate of children with elevated level of serum TNF-α was higher(5/5 vs.3/11, P<0.05). Children with severe CRS were more likely to develop grade 4 ICANS(4/4 vs.0/3, P<0.05). The mortality rate of children with oxygenation index(P/F value)<200 mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) was higher(5/5 vs.2/12, P<0.05). The vasoactive inotropic score[ M( Min, Max)] in the death group was significantly higher than that in survival group[29.5(14.0, 50.0) vs.1.5(0, 25.0), Z=8.000, P=0.027]. Conclusion:Serum IL-6 and IFN-γ are crucial causes of CRS.High tumor load is one of the factors causing high level of serum inflammatory factors.Respiration and circulation systems are the most frequently involved systems.Therefore, the evaluation indexes of these two systems can help us judge the prognosis of children.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics and risk factors for mortality of severe pneumocystis carinii pneumonia(PCP)in pediatric liver transplant(LT)recipients.Methods:The data of severe PCP in LT recipients diagnosed at Shanghai Children′s Medical Center from November 2019 to February 2021 were collected.The clinical characteristics and risk factors for 28-day mortality were analyzed.Results:Fifteen patients were enrolled in the study.Thirteen cases survived and 2 cases were non-survived.There was no routine anti-pneumocystis prophylaxis after LT.The median age of onset of PCP was 12(7, 26)months.The median time after LT was 3.00(0.33, 4.00)months.The onset clustered in November-December and June-August.All patients were mechanically ventilated, and some patients were given prone ventilation(11 cases), neuromuscular blocking agents(13 cases)and high concentration oxygen(more than 60%, nine cases). Fourteen cases were complicated with other infections.Two cases were complicated with pneumothorax and subcutaneous/mediastinal emphysema.There were 2 cases with septic shock-like manifestation, 1 case of right heart insufficiency, 1 case of right heart failure(death), and 1 case of multiple organ failure(death). Compared with the survived group, the non-survived group had higher pediatric risk of mortality Ⅲ score[3.5(0.0, 6.0)vs.8.5(5.0, 12.0), Z=1.993, P=0.046] and lactate dehydrogenase level[1 731.5(1 012.0, 3 270.0)U/L vs.4 387.5(3 606.0, 5 169.0)U/L, Z=2.148, P=0.032]. Conclusion:PCP in pediatric LT is critical and complicated.Pediatric risk of mortality Ⅲ scores and lactate dehydrogenase increase in 28-day hospitalized deaths.
