Viruses in the Development and Exacerbation of Asthma:
Re-examining the Impact of Influenza and the Benefits of
Immunization
PAS
Industry Sponsored Symposium
Yerba
Buena Gardens Salon 7, SF Marriott
Target
Audience: Infectious diseases.
Asthma
is the most common chronic pediatric disorder affecting nearly
6 million U.S. children under age 18. It accounts for over
640,000 annual emergency room visits and is the third leading
cause of hospitalization in children.
The
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and other major
medical and public health groups recommend influenza
vaccination for all children with asthma. Yet, studies show
even in the best years, only one-third are vaccinated.
Annual
influenza vaccination is vital for all children with asthma,
regardless of severity, to protect them from influenza and its
complications.
The
symposium will highlight the need for routine influenza
vaccination for children with asthma, examine how to define
the asthmatic child and review the importance of increasing
recognition of the impact of influenza in this high-risk
population.

Target
Audience: Pediatric clerkship directors, residency program
directors, fellowship directors and division chiefs and
department chairs, as well as those in training or faculty
interested in a family-friendly environment.
The
Federation of Pediatric Organizations (FOPO) released its
Report of the Task Force on Women in Pediatrics in April 2005.
The report recommends structural and functional changes in
academic pediatrics so that family balance is possible during
all stages of training. Specific steps to achieve this goal
were outlined from medical student training up through senior
pediatric faculty. It has been proposed that information
should be collected from medical schools and training programs
so that they can be rated as “family-friendly” in a manner
analogous to Fortune 500 companies. Issues related to a
family-friendly environment include flexible training and work
schedules; provision of sufficient leave for
maternity/paternity and eldercare; resources for childcare,
after-school and lactation facilities; and extension of
timelines for tenure and extramural funding.

Chairs:
Terrie E. Inder and Jeff J. Neil, St. Louis Children's
Hospital, St. Louis, MO
Target
Audience: Neonatologists, neurologists, radiologists and
trainees.
Magnetic
resonance (MR) imaging remains a rapidly evolving field,
particularly in its application to newborn infants. This
symposium will first review the basics of MR imaging methods
(including conventional and diffusion MR imaging) and then
highlight clinical applications of these methods to common
neonatal clinical conditions in the term and premature infant.
The talks will be targeted to clinicians and aimed to address
key clinical questions such as:
–
In which infants should I undertake an MR scan in my NICU?
– What are the strengths and weakness of MRI/CT/cranial
ultrasound?
– How can I undertake MR imaging in my institution—safety,
image sequences and interpretation?
– When should I undertake an MR scan in the term or
premature infant?
– What do the abnormalities in the MR scan mean for
long-term neurological outcome?
– How should I use this information in my clinical practice
in the NICU?
– Where is MR imaging taking us in the next 10 years in
newborn medicine?

Fluids and Hyponatremia: Are We Giving Too Much Water?
PAS/ASPN/LWPES
Topic Symposium
Room
3007-3011, Moscone West
Chairs:
John W. Foreman, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC;
and D. Michael Foulds, University of Texas Health Science
Center at San Antonio, San Antonio, TX
Target
Audience: Nephrologists, general pediatricians, emergency room
doctors, intensivists, hospitalists, endocrinologists and
anyone who administers IV maintenance fluids.
In
the 1950s, Holiday and Segar devised formulae for calculating
intravenous maintenance fluids for infants and children who
were unable to drink. These formulae have been taught and used
now for over 40 years and have generally stood the test of
time. However, several recent investigators have challenged
these formulae and argued that they put children at risk of
hyponatremia. Since Holiday and Segar devised these formulae,
new information has arisen, such as the concept of non-osmotic
stimulation of ADH release in sick children and our ability to
measure ADH levels in plasma on a routine basis. Arieff and
Ayus were the first to point out that children and women are
at particular risk for developing hyponatremic encephalopathy.
Moritz and Ayus have subsequently argued that hypotonic
parenteral fluid should not be used unless there are ongoing
free water losses or hypernatremia. In addition to this new
clinical data, Verkman’s group has exciting data identifying
molecular mechanisms of cerebral edema, including after water
intoxication. Dr. Arieff will review who is at risk and why.
Dr. Verkman’s group has developed data regarding mechanisms
of cerebral edema in experimental animals. Dr. Moritz will
describe the new concepts of maintenance fluids. Dr. Friedman
will defend the current practice. At the end there will be
time for an exchange between the speakers and the audience on
the right fluid to use in today’s children.

Over
the past five years much has been learned about the adipocyte.
The ability of the adipocyte to function as an endocrine
gland, elaborating inflammatory cytokines that result in free
radical formation and premature apoptosis of the beta cell, is
a relatively new concept. This mini course will
comprehensively address many of the newest concepts in
adipocyte function and their impact on health and disease.
Further discussion will include new concepts on the
interactions of IGF-II and other peptides' interactions with
the adipocyte. Lastly, there will be a call for new approaches
to the pediatric obesity epidemic.

an EMR while also writing quality notes. Pediatric
hospitalists from the University of Michigan will discuss the
improvements seen in clarity and thoroughness of notes after
the implementation of a variety of tools. We will demonstrate
templates for medical documentation, including admission
notes, daily progress notes, transfer notes and discharge
summaries. We will discuss other interventions, including the
development of educational sessions for trainees which focus
on proper documenting techniques created with the input of
clinicians, billing, and coding.
Objectives:
–
Learn about attributes of an electronic medical record (EMR)
which impact the quality of documentation.
– Develop strategies to educate trainees on proper
documentation habits within an EMR system.
– Develop strategies to balance the efficiency of the EMR
with billing, coding, and regulatory requirements for students
and residents.
Format:
The workshop will have a brief introduction in a
question-answer format which will identify problems in EMR
documentation. This will be followed by small-groups which
will discuss solutions to these problems.

of Instructional Alignment for Resident Community-Based
Projects
PAS
Educational Workshop
Yerba
Buena Gardens Salon 5, SF Marriott
Leader:
Quimby McCaskill, Jacksonville, FL; Co-leaders: Colleen
Kalynych, Elisa Zenni, Jeff Goldhagen, David Wood
Target
Audience: Trainees, fellows, junior faculty, mid-level
faculty, senior faculty, and community practitioners.
The
Pediatric RRC requires "structured educational
experiences that prepare residents for the role of advocate
for the health of children within the community." Many
programs are utilizing community-based projects to promote
resident competence in this area. This workshop will introduce
instructional alignment (i.e. aligning objectives with
teaching and evaluation), as it applies to developing a sound
curriculum towards residents achieving competence in community
pediatrics through community-based projects. A videotape
review and analysis will allow participants to become familiar
with the benefits of and the essential components to
instructional alignment. Small work groups will also be used
to apply these concepts.
Objectives:
–
Participants will be able to describe instructional alignment.
– Participants will begin to develop an instructional
alignment protocol in community pediatrics utilizing
community-based projects.
– Participants will describe ways in which to evaluate
residents in national community pediatrics competencies
correlated with ACGME competencies, and explore the value of
electronic portfolios.
Format:
Videotape, roundtable discussions, and small work groups.

Child Care for the Premature Infant
PAS
Educational Workshop
Yerba
Buena Gardens Salon 15, SF Marriott
Leader:
Ricki Goldstein, Durham, NC; Co-leader: William Malcolm
Target
Audience: Trainees, fellows, junior faculty, mid-level
faculty, senior faculty, and community practitioners
After
a brief overview of the common problems encountered by
premature infants after discharge, this interactive workshop
will engage the audience in the utilization of a new premature
infant well-child check list being developed for office or
clinic visits during the first 2 years of life. Several videos
of pediatric well-child visits will be viewed which
demonstrate common scenarios involving abnormal motor
development and feeding patterns. After viewing each video,
the workshop participants will complete either a standard
checklist used in a pediatric practice or the one specifically
designed for former premature infants. The key questions or
observations used to detect various problems will be
identified and indications for early intervention will be
discussed.
Objectives:
–
To become familiar with the common medical problems
encountered by premature infants after discharge
– To recognize the red flags for early motor and feeding
problems in premature infants after discharge
– To recognize indications for referring a premature infant
for early intervention services
Format:
(1) Video presentation of well child visit demonstrating
various problems in premature infants; (2) participants to
complete a new check list designed to detect various problems
encountered in the premature infant; and (3) roundtable
discussion of advantages and problems with new check list.

4244—Education
in the Digital Age: Designing and Developing Online Teaching
Modules for Medical Learners
PAS
Educational Workshop
Pacific
Suite J, SF Marriott
Leader:
Kadriye Lewis, Cincinnati, OH; Co-leaders: Michael FitzGerald
Target
Audience: Fellows, junior faculty, mid-level faculty, senior
faculty, community practitioners, and all medical educators.
Computer
technology is becoming increasingly central to the area of
teaching in most disciplines, and transformation to online
instructional delivery method represents an exciting new way
to structure teaching and learning. However, many educators,
unfamiliar with the online pedagogy and instructional design
process, simply transfer their courses directly from their
lectures to an online text format. This satisfies the need to
put a course online, but is not the most efficient or
effective way to deliver instructional materials to residents
and medical students. This workshop will provide an essential
grounding for building effective online instructional modules
while preparing medical educators for the digital age
educational approaches.
Objectives:
–
Identify the components of pedagogically effective module
design and development.
– Learn to construct a learning module including assignments
and activities.
– Use templates to guide the development process and rubrics
to assess the strengths and weaknesses of developed modules.
Format:
Showcase demonstration, discussion, and hands-on activities.

There
has been a significant nationwide increase in the volume of
pediatric patients presenting to emergency departments with
psychiatric and behavioral issues due to a variety of reasons,
which has resulted in a significant challenge to both the
providers of pediatric emergency care and the facilities in
which they work. The emergency medicine SIG meeting during
2006 PAS Annual Meeting will discuss this "psychiatric
crisis in the emergency department." This topic will be
presented in three parts; challenges in clinical evaluation
and interventions, research opportunities and administrative
challenges.

The
Integrative Medicine SIG will meet together with the new AAP
provisional Section for Complementary, Holistic and
Integrative Medicine. We will provide a 3-hour multimedia,
experiential presentation for all PAS visitors interested in
finding out more about Complementary and Integrative Medicine
and an opportunity to meet and network with other clinicians,
educators and researchers interested in this topic. Our goal
is to provide a forum to see the current state of
complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) research, an
opportunity to experience a complementary therapy (if they
wish) and to ask about many of the CAM modalities most
commonly used by our patients. Local practitioners from the
San Francisco area will give hands-on demonstrations and
explanations of their specific modality and will answer your
questions, as time permits. Please take advantage of this
unique opportunity to satisfy your curiosity or whet your
appetite to find out about a field which many of our patients
are already exploring.

Suite H, SF Marriott
Chairs:
Sandy Hassink, shassink@nemours.org;
and Robert Karp, robert.karp@downstate.edu.
The
Nutrition SIG will continue with its emphasis on nutrition
education in residency. Our project, "A Teacher's Guide
to Pediatric Nutrition," is readily available at http://downstate.edu/peds/pednutrition.
The model of "stepping stone education" is used with
a primer, "Pediatric Nutrition Notes," as its
foundation. A set of five introductions, Part 2, provide the
tools for usage. Part 3 is a set of eight modules on
pathophysiology, prevention evaluation and treatment of
obesity through childhood. Part 4 contains more than 25
case-based teaching modules on disease processes affected by
nutrition. The Teacher's Guide concludes with a module on
evaluation of teaching applicable to any subject. This
includes use of structured clinical observation for resident
evaluation of taking a diet history and providing guidance.
Faculty
and residents are invited to a 2-hour program with continental
breakfast to explore use of the Teacher's Guide. We will
provide model programs evaluating use of the Teacher's Guide
for achieving basic skills of taking histories and providing
guidance. Participants will join us for presentations,
discussion and continental breakfast. Registration is not
necessary. Queries are welcome by robert.karp@downstate.edu.
