New Study Finds “Huge” Increase in Teens Going to the ER With Suicidal Thoughts

shyparis — Mon, 12 Dec 2022 14:02:48 +0000

A new study in the medical journal Pediatrics says there has been a steady increase in the number of children and teens who visited emergency departments to get help for suicidal thoughts. Visits to the ER with suicidal thoughts increased 59 percent from 2016–17 to 2019–21, and about a quarter of those visits resulted in hospital stays. Study co-author Dr. Audrey Brewer said many of the young people who were hospitalized with suicidal thoughts had other mental health problems like anxiety, depression and substance use.

If you’re feeling anxious, depressed, or hopeless, help is available. Consider talking to a sibling, a friend’s parent, or a teacher or school counselor. You can also contact the U.S. 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline by calling or texting 988, or Talk Suicide Canada by calling 1-833-456-4566.

Fibre-optic, electronic pH test device compared with current NHS guidance to confirm nasogastric tube placement

shyparis — Thu, 08 Dec 2022 13:18:03 +0000

The clinical objectives of this prospective, random, convenience series were:

1. Compare a novel fibre-optic pH test device (NGPOD) to gastric aspirate and pH testing for nasogastric tube (NGT) confirmation.

2. Determine if the new device reduces the need for chest radiography (chest X-ray, CXR).

Methods

Recruitment of patients over the age of 18, requiring NGT feeding.

Exclusion criteria: oesophageal gastrointestinal surgery within 3 months; all those with partial or total gastrectomy; bleeding gastric and duodenal ulcers; gastric cancer; those with oesophageal varices; those considered to be inappropriate.

The index test, NGPOD, comprises a fine, flexible fibre-optic sensor passed down the NGT, then connected to an electronic device. A green light indicates pH ≤5.5, and a red light if pH is >5.5.

The reference test is withdrawal of gastric aspirate and testing with universal pH indicator strips then comparison to a colour chart. Second-line testing is establishing NGT position by CXR or subjective clinical assessment (SCA) in intensive care unit (ICU).

Results

The analysed data set contained 174 subjects who had undergone 496 tests, 96 initial and 400 repeat NGT checks.

For all patients, NGPOD can reduce the need for CXR or SCA by 21.2%.

In ICU, NGPOD can reduce the need for CXR or SCA by 24.5%.

When performing initial tests, immediately after tube placement, NGPOD can reduce the need for CXR or SCA in 61% of patients.

With repeat testing, NGPOD can reduce the need to progress to CXR or SCA in 16% of tests.

Conclusions

The objective, yes—no result delivered by NGPOD, eliminates the subjective reading of a pH strip colour change, reducing the subjective element. The index test has the opportunity to reduce risk, improve safety and decrease the numbers of patients requiring X-ray. It, therefore, has the potential to reduce never events associated with NGT misplacement.

Study Says Teen Brains Aged Faster During the First Year of the Pandemic

shyparis — Mon, 05 Dec 2022 14:20:25 +0000

A new study published in the journal Biological Psychiatry: Global Open Science says the brains of U.S. teens physically changed during the COVID-19 pandemic and show signs of aging faster than normal. Researchers from Stanford University compared MRI scans of 163 teens, with half of the scans taken before the pandemic and the other half at the end of 2020. The scans taken during the pandemic showed the teens’ brains had grown in the areas that can help manage fear and stress and control access to memories, and thinning in the part of the brain that controls skills such as concentration and time management. More research will be needed to know if these changes are permanent or temporary effects of the pandemic.
