Clinical Practice Guideline: Autism Spectrum Disorder: Updated Guidelines from the American Academy of Pediatrics
American Academy of Pediatrics
American Academy of Pediatrics
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder affecting one in 59 children in the United States and other industrialized nations. In addition to behavior issues, ASD is associated with seizures, gastrointestinal concerns, sleep difficulties, and mental health issues that can profoundly impact the quality of life of children and their families. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) has published updated guidelines for diagnosis and treatment of ASD.

Key Study: Rapid fluid resuscitation in pediatrics: testing the American College of Critical Care Medicine guideline (2007)

Stoner MJG, D. G.; Cohen, D. M.; Fernandez, S. A.; Hall, M. W.
Objective: The 2002 American College of Critical Care Medicine (ACCM) guidelines for the resuscitation of pediatric septic shock suggest that 20 mL/kg of bolus intravenous fluid be given within 5 minutes. Of 3 commonly used, inexpensive methods of fluid delivery, we hypothesized that only use of a manual push-pull system will permit guideline adherence. Published: 2007.

Key Study: International pediatric sepsis consensus conference: definitions for sepsis and organ dysfunction in pediatrics (2005)
Goldstein BG, B.; Randolph, A.
Goldstein BG, B.; Randolph, A.
Objective: Although general definitions of the sepsis continuum have been published for adults, no such work has been done for the pediatric population. Physiologic and laboratory variables used to define the systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and organ dysfunction require modification for the developmental stages of children. An international panel of 20 experts in sepsis and clinical research from five countries (Canada, France, Netherlands, United Kingdom, and United States) was convened to modify the published adult consensus definitions of infection, sepsis, severe sepsis, septic shock, and organ dysfunction for children. Published: 2005.
