ABSTRACT Clinical pharmacists give valuable administrations to adult patients, however, their advantages for pediatric and neonatal patients are less characterized. Many studies state that medication errors in children are more common than in adults with a greater risk of death.Clinical Pharmacists are accepted as the primary source for providing evidence-based information and advice, to ensure the delivery of correct, safest, and most effective medication to patients. This paper presents a review of the role of clinical pharmacists in the pediatric unit and emphasis the importance of clinical pharmacists for all patients, especially in the pediatric age group. -
Pediatrics Community About the Residency Recruitment Process May 19, 2021
APPD/COMSEP/AMSPDC/FuturePedsRes/NextGenPediatricians Letter to Our Pediatrics Community About the Residency Recruitment Process May 19, 2021 The leadership of APPD, COMSEP, AMSPDC, FuturePedsRes, and NextGenPediatricians have been working collaboratively with Undergraduate Medical Education (UME) and Graduate Medical Education (GME) leaders and learners to optimize the recruitment process for applicants and programs. Through this process, we have sought substantial input from applicants, program leaders, chairs, and the greater community including other subspecialties. In addition, we have reviewed and appreciate the recommendations from the Coalition for Physician Accountability. Our primary goal is to optimize the recruitment process for both learners and programs by: (1) Helping learners find programs that match their career goals while providing an atmosphere conducive to their learning styles. (2) Creating a fair and equitable application process for both learners and programs. This past interview season has opened our eyes to ways of improving equity in our processes. In addition, there continues to be uncertainty due to the COVID‐19 pandemic, with some regions still experiencing surges and travel restrictions. Given that many are most focused on the types of interviews we will be doing this coming year, we present that recommendation up front, and then go into the additional recommendations below. Following many conversations and surveys with each of our organizations, we strongly recommend only offering virtual interviews for the 2021‐2022 recruitment cycle for several reasons: (1) Effective assessment: The majority of applicants and programs highlighted that they thought the assessment of applicants was sufficient using virtual interviews in the 2020‐ 2021 cycle. (2) Equity: Virtual interviews are more equitable for applicants and programs, both in terms of cost savings and in terms of any remaining restrictions from the COVID‐19 pandemic. -

Oral Defensiveness
ORAL DEFENSIVENESS Oral Defensiveness is an aversive response to touch sensations in and around the mouth that may cause extreme sensory, emotional and behavioural responses when eating. Treatment Principles • In all instances, approach oral defensiveness in a fun and playful way. • Rapport must be well established with the child. • Intervention should be carried out at times other than meal times. • Allow the child to be an active participant in therapy as much as possible. • Take turns at playing the games with the child or include siblings. • Slow and steady wins the race. • Establish a routine - Performing the routine the same way in each session helps a child to know the expectations. • Take it one step at a time - For severely orally aversive children you may not even be able to start near their mouth. Work your way from the outer perimeter of the face in toward the mouth, then the outside of the mouth, and gradually work your way into the mouth • Reinforce all positive responses. Give verbal praise and tangible reinforcement Therapy should be directed toward reducing the sensory problems that triggered the food refusal. However, the general strategy is to influence the sensory processing system, not just the mouth. Many of the strategies used in Sensory Integration programs are effective. These include use of vestibular input(movement through space), deep- pressure touch, and proprioceptive input through the joints. Rhythmical, organizing music and sound can also influence the auditory-vestibular system. Most of these strategies can be incorporated in the family routine to prepare. For example, spoon feeding can be introduced while providing vestibular input in a rocking chair, or using specific types of organizing music during the meal. -

The Long-Term Effects of Breastfeeding on Development
3 The Long-Term Effects of Breastfeeding on Development Wendy H. Oddy1, Jianghong Li1,3, Monique Robinson1 and Andrew J.O. Whitehouse1,2 1Telethon Institute for Child Health Research, Centre for Child Health Research, The University of Western Australia, Perth, 2Neurocognitive Development Unit, School of Psychology, The University of Western Australia, Perth, 3Centre Population Health Research, Curtin Health Innovation Research Institute, Curtin University, Perth, Australia 1. Introduction The link between breastfeeding duration and subsequent development, cognition, educational, mental, psychomotor and behavioural functioning of the infant has been the subject of much scientific enquiry. Indeed, the effect of feeding on infant health and development was first discussed more than half a century ago when breastfed babies were reported to have better cognitive outcomes in childhood than artificially fed babies (Hoefer and Hardy 1929). Some studies have found striking results pertaining to the relative advantages that breastfeeding can confer on child neurodevelopment (Oddy, Kendall et al. 2003; Vohr, Poindexter et al. 2006; Kramer, Aboud et al. 2008). Breastfeeding has previously been associated with improvements across neurodevelopmental domains for low birthweight babies in comparison with not breastfeeding at all (Vohr, Poindexter et al. 2006). One study reported results from a large randomized controlled trial and found that breastfeeding for a longer duration and exclusive breastfeeding were associated with significant increases in -
2016 Nielsen Music U.S. Mid-Year Report
2016 NIELSEN MUSIC U.S. MID-YEAR REPORT 2016 NIELSEN MUSIC MID-YEAR U.S. REPORT Copyright © 2016 The Nielsen Company 1 2016 MID-YEAR HIGHLIGHTS AND ANALYSIS Nielsen, the music industry’s leading data information provider presents the 2016 U.S. Music mid-year report for the 6-month period of January 1, 2016 through June 30, 2016. • Audio has surpassed Video as the leading Streaming format in 2016. Audio share of streaming is 54% in 2016, growing from 44% through the first six months of 2015. • There are 3 albums that have sold over 1 Million units so far this year (Adele/25, Drake/Views and Beyonce/Lemonade), while there was only 1 at this time last year (Taylor Swift/1989). • Creative release strategies, driven mostly by digital formats, continue to be a major story. Drake’s “Views”, Beyonce’s “Lemonade” and Kanye Wests “The Life of Pablo” have all been successful this year and are led by digital formats. Also, 2016 saw the first album to chart based solely on streaming activity, when Chance the Rapper debuted at #8 in its first week with 57M audio streams. • Digital purchasing has seen the largest decline of all formats with Digital tracks down 24% and digital albums down 18%. Total digital purchasing (Albums + Track Equivalents) is down 21% vs. the first half of 2015. However, factoring in the gains in streaming and total digital consumption is up 15%. • Vinyl continues to become a bigger piece of the physical music business. Vinyl LPs now comprise nearly 12% of the physical business in the first half of 2016, which far surpasses last year’s record pace of 9%. -
