RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Flexible nasolaryngoscopy (FNL) is a common, uncomfortable procedure performed to assess the upper airway in infants. Oral sucrose is used during various painful procedures in infants but has not been used during FNL. Our objective was to understand the impact of oral sucrose on discomfort in infants undergoing FNL. METHODS: Infants (<12-months-old) undergoing FNL in the otolaryngology clinic were randomized to treatment (0.5 mL 24% oral sucrose) or standard management (no sucrose). Sucrose was administered <2 min prior to FNL performed by a single endoscopist. Outcome measures included: EVENDOL pain scale and cry duration and visit duration. Infant discomfort was measured by a second observer who was blinded to treatment group. RESULTS: Forty-seven infants were included, 23 were treated with sucrose and 24 with standard management. The median (IQR) age was 3.0 (2-5.7) months. There were no significant differences in age, weight, or sex across groups. The median (IQR) duration of FNL was 35.2 (26.5-58.4) and 36.4 (28.9-51.8) seconds for treatment and standard management groups, respectively. Mean (SD) EVENDOL scores were significantly lower in the sucrose group [4.9 (2.0)] than standard group (6.7 [2.1]) (p = 0.003). Mean cry duration after FNL was significantly shorter in the sucrose group (29.9 [20.4] seconds) than the standard group (52.7.0 [40.6] seconds) (p = 0.02). Median (IQR) visit duration did not differ across groups (1.1 [0.9-1.3] vs. 1.1 [0.7-1.4] h [p = 0.15]). CONCLUSION: Oral sucrose given before FNL reduced EVENDOL scores and cry duration after FNL and did not prolong clinic visits in this randomized pilot study. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 2 Laryngoscope, 2024.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Percutaneous tracheostomy is routinely performed in adult patients but is seldomly used in the pediatric population due to concerns regarding safety and limited available evidence. This study aims to consolidate the current literature on percutaneous tracheostomy in the pediatric population. METHODS: A systematic review following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines was conducted. MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, and Web of Science were searched for studies on pediatric percutaneous tracheostomy (age ≤18). The Joanna Briggs Institute and ROBINS-I tools were used for quality appraisal. RESULTS: Twenty-one articles were included resulting in 143 patients. Patient age ranged from 2 days to 17 years, with the largest subpopulation of patients (n = 57, 40 %) being adolescents (age between 12 and 17 years old). Main indications for percutaneous tracheostomy included prolonged ventilation (n = 6), respiratory insufficiency (n = 5), and upper airway obstruction (n = 5). One-third (n = 47) of percutaneous tracheostomies were completed at the bedside in an intensive care unit. Select studies reported on surgical time and time from intubation to tracheostomy with a mean of 13.8 (SD = 7.8) minutes (n = 27) and 8.9 (SD = 2.8) days (n = 35), respectively. Major postoperative complications included tracheoesophageal fistula (n = 4, 2.8 %) and pneumothorax (n = 3, 2.1 %). There were four conversions to open tracheostomy. CONCLUSION: Percutaneous tracheostomy had a similar risk of complications to open surgical tracheostomy in children and adolescents and can be performed at the bedside in a select group of patients if necessary. However, we feel that consideration must be given to the varying anatomical considerations in children and adolescents compared with adults, and therefore suggest that this procedure be reserved for adolescent patients with a thin body habitus and clearly demarcated and palpable anatomical landmarks who require a tracheostomy. When performed, we strongly support using endoscopic guidance and a surgeon who has the ability to convert to an open tracheostomy if required.
