    January 12: Looking for Red Flags: Implications for Drug and Alcohol Screening for the Trauma Patient

    Roni Robinson, MSN, CRNP, RN

    Trauma Program
    The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia

    The American College of Surgeons Committee on Trauma has set forth standards of care that stipulate that all trauma patients must be screened for substance abuse, including injured children. However, no specific guidelines were provided to address this mandate for the pediatric trauma population. At The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP), a Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral for Treatment (SBIRT) program has been implemented which screens the adolescent trauma patient for at-risk behaviors for both alcohol and drug use.

The importance of child health services being delivered in the context of cross-sector collaboration and comprehensive system development will be emphasized.

  • February

    February 2: Biobanking and the Fate of Residual Newborn Screening Bloodspots

    Jeff Botkin, MD, MPH
    Professor, Pediatrics
    Associate Vice President, Research
    University of Utah School of Medicine

    State health departments retain residual newborn screening bloodspots after clinical testing is complete for use in quality assurance and biomedical research. This practice has become controversial due to the lack of parental awareness or permission for specimen banking. This presentation will address public attitudes regarding this practice and discuss the relevant ethical and policy issues.

    February 9: Designing a System for Pediatric Health Care Delivery: When the Next Shoe Drops!

    Edward B. Clark, MD
    Wilma T. Gibson Presidential Professor
    Chair, Pediatrics

    Chief Medical Officer
    Primary Children’s Medical Center

    This presentation will help participants understand the forces driving change in children’s health care delivery. It will define the value proposition for pediatric care and describe the progress in designing and implementing a pediatric health care system in Utah. It will review three tools for change: patient tracker, febrile infant protocol, and management of complex chronic patients and explore options for the next phase of health care reform.

    February 16: Supporting Transition for (YSHCN): Preparing to Pass the Baton

    Maryellen Gusic, MD
    Executive Associate Dean, Educational Affairs
    Dolores and John Read Professor, Medical Education
    Professor, Pediatrics
    Indiana University School of Medicine
    Indianapolis, IN

    The goal of transition planning for youth is to maximize lifelong functioning and potential. Unfortunately, for many youth, health care transition remains a challenging and disorganized process. Access to continuous and comprehensive care is especially important for youth with special health care needs. This presentation will review the pediatric provider’s role in planning and preparing youth with special health care needs for transition to adult-oriented care. Using available guidelines and recommendations from national organizations, participants will identify changes they can make to enhance transition services within their practice/clinical care setting.

    Department of Medical Imaging
    Primary Children’s Medical Center
    Adjunct Assistant Professor, Radiology
    University of Utah School of Medicine

    Advancements in the field of Interventional Radiology (IR) have yielded minimally invasive techniques for problems that previously were treated with major surgery. In addition, many effective therapies are now available for conditions that were thought to be untreatable. Some of the newest IR procedures will be reviewed; the treatment of vascular anomalies will be highlighted.
