Controversy persists regarding the ideal surgical approach for repair of esophageal atresia with tracheoesophageal fistula (EA/TEF). We examined complications and outcomes of infants undergoing thoracoscopy and thoracotomy for repair of Type C EA/TEF using propensity score-based overlap weights to minimize the effects of selection bias.Secondary analysis of two databases from multicenter retrospective and prospective studies examining outcomes of infants with proximal EA and distal TEF who underwent repair at 11 institutions was performed based on surgical approach. Regression analysis using propensity score-based overlap weights was utilized to evaluate outcomes of patients undergoing thoracotomy or thoracoscopy for Type C EA/TEF repair.Of 504 patients included, 448 (89%) underwent thoracotomy and 56 (11%) thoracoscopy. Patients undergoing thoracoscopy were more likely to be full term (37.9 vs. 36.3 weeks estimated gestational age, p 0.001), have a higher weight at operative repair (2.9 vs. 2.6 kg, p 0.001), and less likely to have congenital heart disease (16% vs. 39%, p 0.001). Postoperative stricture rate did not differ by approach, 29 (52%) thoracoscopy and 198 (44%) thoracotomy (p = 0.42). Similarly, there was no significant difference in time from surgery to stricture formation (p 0.26). Regression analysis using propensity score-based overlap weighting found no significant difference in the odds of vocal cord paresis or paralysis (OR 1.087 p = 0.885), odds of anastomotic leak (OR 1.683 p = 0.123), the hazard of time to anastomotic stricture (HR 1.204 p = 0.378), or the number of dilations (IRR 1.182 p = 0.519) between thoracoscopy and thoracotomy.Infants undergoing thoracoscopic repair of Type C EA/TEF are more commonly full term, with higher weight at repair, and without congenital heart disease as compared to infants repaired via thoracotomy. Utilizing propensity score-based overlap weighting to minimize the effects of selection bias, we found no significant difference in complications based on surgical approach. However, our study may be underpowered to detect such outcome differences owing to the small number of infants undergoing thoracoscopic repair.Level III.

We evaluate the incidence, outcomes, and management of peri‑umbilical hernias after sutured or sutureless gastroschisis closure.A retrospective, longitudinal follow-up of neonates with gastroschisis who underwent closure at 11 children's hospitals from 2013 to 2016 was performed. Patient encounters were reviewed through 2019 to identify the presence of a peri‑umbilical hernia, time to spontaneous closure or repair, and associated complications.Of 397 patients, 375 had follow-up data. Sutured closure was performed in 305 (81.3%). A total of 310 (82.7%) infants had uncomplicated gastroschisis. Peri-umbilical hernia incidence after gastroschisis closure was 22.7% overall within a median follow-up of 2.5 years [IQR 1.3,3.9], and higher in those with uncomplicated gastroschisis who underwent primary vs. silo assisted closure (53.0% vs. 17.2%, p0.001). At follow-up, 50.0% of sutureless closures had a persistent hernia, while 16.4% of sutured closures had a postoperative hernia of the fascial defect (50.0% vs. 16.4%, p0.001). Spontaneous closure was observed in 38.8% of patients within a median of 17 months [9,26] and most frequently observed in those who underwent a sutureless primary closure (52.2%). Twenty-seven patients (31.8%) underwent operative repair within a median of 13 months [7,23.5]. Rate and interval of spontaneous closure or repair were similar between the sutured and sutureless closure groups, with no difference between those who underwent primary vs. silo assisted closure.Peri-umbilical hernias after sutured or sutureless gastroschisis closure may be safely observed similar to congenital umbilical hernias as spontaneous closure occurs, with minimal complications and no additional risk with either closure approach.Level II.

Anastomotic stricture is the most common complication after esophageal atresia (EA) repair. We sought to determine if postoperative acid suppression is associated with reduced stricture formation.A prospective, multi-institutional cohort study of infants undergoing primary EA repair from 2016 to 2020 was performed. Landmark analysis and multivariate Cox regression were used to explore if initial duration of acid suppression was associated with stricture formation at hospital discharge (DC), 3-, 6-, and 9-months postoperatively.Of 156 patients, 79 (51%) developed strictures and 60 (76%) strictures occurred within three months following repair. Acid suppression was used in 141 patients (90%). Landmark analysis showed acid suppression was not associated with reduction in initial stricture formation at DC, 3-, 6- and 9-months, respectively (p = 0.19-0.95). Multivariate regression demonstrated use of a transanastomotic tube was significantly associated with stricture formation at DC (Hazard Ratio (HR) = 2.21 (95% CI 1.24-3.95, p0.01) and 3-months (HR 5.31, 95% CI 1.65-17.16, p0.01). There was no association between acid suppression duration and stricture formation.No association between the duration of postoperative acid suppression and anastomotic stricture was observed. Transanastomotic tube use increased the risk of anastomotic strictures at hospital discharge and 3 months after repair.

The implementation of lockdown and social distancing policies at the beginning of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic changed both the nature of pediatric traumatic injuries and how those injuries were managed by pediatric trauma centers. At the start of the pandemic, the number of injured children evaluated at trauma centers decreased. Trauma volumes have since rebounded, and a concerning increase in abuse-related injuries has been seen. Pediatric trauma systems responded to the pandemic with new approaches to protect health care providers, conserve critical resources, and assist adult trauma systems overburdened by patients with COVID-19. The widespread effect of COVID-19 continues to have significant repercussions on children's health, but the lessons learned and gaps exposed by the pandemic may be an opportunity to positively transform injury prevention and health care delivery.

We need to design technologies that support the work of health care teams; designing such solutions should integrate different clinical roles. However, we know little about the actual collaboration that occurs in the design process for a team-based care solution. This study examines how multiple perspectives were managed in the design of a team health IT solution aimed at supporting clinician information needs during pediatric trauma care transitions. We focused our analysis on four co-design sessions that involved multiple clinicians caring for pediatric trauma patients. We analyzed design session transcripts using content analysis and process coding guided by Détienne’s (2006) co-design framework. We expanded upon Détienne (2006) three collaborative activities to identify specific themes and processes of collaboration between care team members engaged in the design process. The themes and processes describe how team members collaborated in a team health IT design process that resulted in a highly usable technology.

Surgery - Abstract
Nearly 75% of clinical trials fail to enroll enough participants, and cohorts often fail to reflect the clinical and demographic diversity of at-risk populations. Effective recruitment strategies are critically important for successful clinical trials. Framing treatment risks are known to affect medical decision-making for both physicians and patients but has not been rigorously studied in surgical trials. We sought to examine the impact of a high-quality video-based consent tool and the effect of risk-benefit framing on patient willingness to participate in a surgical clinical trial.A standardized video consent was shown to all potential participants in the Comparison of Outcomes of antibiotic Drugs and Appendectomy (CODA) trial, a randomized controlled trial comparing antibiotics and surgery for acute appendicitis. We report (1) differences in recruitment between two versions of a video-based tool that differed in production quality and (2) the impact of risk-benefit framing on participant randomization rates. The reasons for declining randomization were also assessed.Of 4697 eligible patients approached to participate in the CODA trial, 1535 (33% [95% confidence interval (CI): 31%-34%]) agreed to randomization; this did not change from video version 1 to version 2. There was no difference in participation between positively framed videos (32% [95% CI: 30%-34%]) versus negatively framed videos (33.0% [95% CI: 30.8-35.2]). The most common reason for declining participation was treatment preference (72% for surgery and 18% for antibiotics).Neither the change from video 1 to video 2 nor the positive versus negative framing affected participant willingness to randomize. The stakeholder-informed video-based consenting tool used in CODA was an effective strategy for the recruitment of a heterogeneous patient population within the proposed study period.

BackgroundMultiple randomized controlled trials have shown that it is safe and effective to treat appendicitis with antibiotics or surgery. There are no tools available to assist surgeons and their patients in choosing the optimal treatment for each individual patient. Here we describe the development of a new decisions support tool (DST) for acute appendicitis and place it in the context of international guidelines for decision aid development.MethodsThe stakeholder engagement and development process for the DST is described. The DST and its development process are placed in the context of the International Patient Decision Aid Standards (IPDAS) and the DEVELOPTOOLS checklist for a user-centered design process.ResultsA diverse group of over 60 stakeholders were involved in the needs-assessment, development, and evaluation of the DST. The development process met 11/11 of the scored items on the DEVELOPTOOLS checklist. Of the 34 applicable IPDAS items, the current version of the DST meets 31 of them including 6/6 qualifying criteria, 6/6 certification criteria, and 18/22 quality criteria.ConclusionsThe novel appendicitis DST was developed with the input of multiple stakeholders. The development process and the tool itself complies with best practices recommended by the IPDAS.

Trauma is the number 1 cause of death among children. Shorter distance to definitive trauma care has been correlated with better clinical outcomes. There are only a small number of pediatric trauma centers (PTC) designated by the American College of Surgeons, and the resources available to treat injured children at non-PTCs are limited. To guide resource allocation and advocacy efforts for pediatric trauma care in Wisconsin, we determined the precise distance to trauma centers for all children living in the state.The 2010 US Census data was used to determine ZIP-centroid geolocation. The Wisconsin Department of Health Services trauma classification database was used to identify trauma facilities in Wisconsin. SAS routines invoking the Google Maps application programming interface were used to calculate the driving distance to each of the trauma facilities. We quantified the percentage of children living within 30- and 60-minute driving distances of level I-IV trauma centers.Just 31.3% of Wisconsin children live within a 30-minute drive of a level I PTC; 32.7% live within 30 minutes of a level II center; 81.3% within 30 minutes of a level III center; and 74.6% within 30 minutes of a level IV center.Two-thirds of children in Wisconsin live beyond a 30-minute driving distance of a level I PTC, but most children live within 30 minutes of level III and IV trauma centers. As the closest hospitals for most children, smaller trauma centers should be adequately resourced to provide pediatric trauma care.

New communication technologies and generational differences in communication techniques create ethical challenges for pediatric surgeons. Using two hypothetical cases we explore the ethics of modern communication in pediatric surgery. The first case explores the ethics of text messaging with patients and families and of social media posts, both of which have useful ethical analogues in older communication technologies. The second case explores ways that generational experiential differences in learning can foster misunderstandings between team members at different levels of training and potentially impact important medical care decisions. The ethical rules that govern the delivery of patient care also apply to what we say and how we say it. Effective, ethical and compassionate communication will often be the aspect of therapy most appreciated by the patient and family.
