Journal ArticleDOI
Esophageal intubation: a review of detection techniques.
TL;DR: A review of various anesthetic-related morbidity and mortality statistics indicates that unrecognized esophageal intubation remains a problem, even among anesthesia personnel, a medical population specifically trained in such a procedure.

TL;DR: A level of safety in pediatric regional anesthesia that is comparable to adult practice and confirms the safety of placing blocks under general anesthesia in children is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Twenty-four-Hour Pharmacokinetics of Rectal Acetaminophen in Children: An Old Drug with New Recommendations
Patrick K. Birmingham,Michael Tobin,Thomas K. Henthorn,Dennis M. Fisher,Maura C. Berkelhamer,Frederick A. Smith,Kaaren B. Fanta,Charles J. Coté +7 more
TL;DR: The authors extended the drug sampling period to more clearly define acetaminophen pharmacokinetics in children having surgery and recommend that the initial dose should be approximately 40 mg/kg.
Journal ArticleDOI
Initial and subsequent dosing of rectal acetaminophen in children: a 24-hour pharmacokinetic study of new dose recommendations.
Patrick K. Birmingham,Michael Tobin,Dennis M. Fisher,Thomas K. Henthorn,Steven C. Hall,Charles J. Coté +5 more
TL;DR: A rectal acetaminophen loading dose followed by 20-mg/kg doses every 6 h results in serum concentrations centered at the target range of 10–20 &mgr;g/ml, without evidence of accumulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Are caudal blocks for pain control safe in children? an analysis of 18,650 caudal blocks from the Pediatric Regional Anesthesia Network (PRAN) database.
TL;DR: Safety concerns should not be a barrier to the use of caudal blocks in children assuming an appropriate selection of local anesthetic dosage, and subjects received doses that could be potentially unsafe.
