The Socioeconomic Impact On Presentation And Clinical Course Of Celiac Disease, Christopher Cao, Md, Peter Block, Md, Madeline Russell, Md, Justin Robbins, Md, Anthony J. Dimarino, Md, Stephanie Moleski

Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology Posters

Introduction

• Celiac Disease (CD) is a chronic autoimmune condition primarily affecting the small intestine.
• CD is triggered by ingestion of gluten and the only effective treatment for CD involves strict and lifelong elimination of dietary gluten.
• Compliance with the gluten free diet (GFD) relies on purchasing gluten-free foods. Studies have shown the cost of a GFD to be from 76% to 518% more expensive than gluten containing counterparts. Because of this, the economic burden that CD patients face may be substantial, placing these patients at high risk for dietary neglect.
• Financial limitation aside, GFD availability also varies by differing neighborhoods, …

Mobile Health Software Platform Implementation To Improve Pediatric Remote Patient Monitoring Outcomes, Lori A. Erickson, Amy Ricketts, Jenny Marshall, Krista Nelson, Peter Churchill, Dawn Wolff, Robert W. Steele

Posters

Background: Children’s High Acuity Monitoring Program (CHAMP®) is a software platform for pediatric remote patient monitoring. It is used with a proactive, personalized, pediatric care model providing a link for communication with a specialized healthcare team to patients and families in their homes. Successful implementation since 2014 includes: adoption at 12 pediatric hospitals and over 870 infants with a survival of 96.5% (down from 20% in 2012). This work led our team to engage leadership to discuss a remote patient monitoring department with new monitoring devices and expanded access to pediatric conditions.

Methods: Strategic Planning and Innovation facilitated navigation of …

Linking Historical Redlining Maps To Present‐Day Environmental Hazards In St. Louis, Margaret Keller, Kenneth L. Brown

Annual Student Research Poster Session

Many of America’s cities were mapped by the Home Owners Loan Corporation (HOLC). This practice led to structurally racist housing policies and practices, namely redlining. The practice of redlining directed both public and private capital to native‐born, white families and away from Black, Latinx, and immigrant families that lived in these areas. While redlining is illegal today due to the Fair Housing Act of 1968, its impact is still evident in the structure of many U.S. cities including St. Louis (Hillier 2015). Today, redlined areas are particularly susceptible to environmental injustices because laws, regulations, governmental programs, and policies inadequately protect …

Stewardship Opportunities For Cervical Lymphadenitis And Deep Neck Space Infections, Aaron Shaw, Brian R. Lee, Lauren Kazmaier, Emily Baker, Tina Dao, Sandra Arnold, Angela Myers

Posters

Background: Cervical lymphadenitis (LAD) and deep neck space abscesses (DNSA) are common pediatric infections caused by similar bacteria. We sought to determine differences in presentation, diagnosis, and treatment between LAD and DNSA to identify antimicrobial and diagnostic stewardship opportunities. Methods: Charts were obtained using ICD9/10 codes for retropharyngeal and parapharyngeal abscessed (DNSA), and LAD between 1/1/10-12/31/20 from two pediatric centers. 1981 charts were identified. Charts were excluded if the diagnosis was not a bacterial infection (e.g. Kawasaki disease), if the LAD was not in the neck, or if caused by less common bacteria (e.g. tuberculosis). Data on presenting signs, symptoms, …

Inverted Appendix Presenting As Abdominal Pain And Lower Gastrointestinal Bleeding, Moises Alatorre-Jimenez, Thomas M. Attard

Posters

Background: Cecal polyps are challenging insofar as the region represents the highest risk of bleeding and perforation during polypectomy . In addition, polypoid lesions in the cecum may represent a morphologically abnormal ileocecal valve or an inverted appendix. Inadvertent polypectomy in those scenarios would lead to serious sequelae including perforation. Case report: Our patient is a 6-year-old male with a background history of prematurity, lactose intolerance, chronic esophagitis, gastritis, constipation, and painless rectal bleeding. He presented with a acute onset diffuse, severe abdominal pain associated with diarrhea that evolved to include hematochezia. At the time of presentation, he required aggressive …

Management of Primary Spontaneous Pneumothorax in Children: A Single Institution Protocol Analysis

Background: The Midwest Pediatric Surgery Consortium (MWPSC) has suggested a management algorithm to include simple aspiration of primary spontaneous pneumothorax (PSP), failing which, Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS) should be considered. We describe our outcomes in patients who have been managed with this suggested protocol.

Methods: An Institutional Review Board (IRB) approved, single institution retrospective analysis was conducted on all patients between 12 and 18 years who were diagnosed with PSP from 2016 to 2022. Initial management consisted of aspiration alone with a 12F Thal-Quick chest tube followed by …

Alterations In The Metabolic Comorbidities Of Youth With Overweight And Obesity During The Covid-19 Pandemic, Safa Farrukh, Erica Wee, Ashley Sherman, Yun Yan

Posters

Background: Childhood obesity rates have continued to increase with the COVID-19 pandemic. However, data are limited on the impact of increasing obesity on associated comorbidities. Methods: We evaluated the progression of overweight- or obesity-associated comorbidities by investigating change in laboratory results pre–COVID-19 pandemic and post–COVID-19 pandemic onset in youth with overweight or obesity. Results: There was no significant BMI progression. There was progression of metabolic comorbidities. HbA1c progression and LDL progression were significantly correlated. HbA1c and LDL progression were significantly associated with older age and Hispanics respectively. Conclusion: The results indicate that despite no significant increase in BMI, youths with …

Two Siblings With Microvillous Inclusion Disease, Moises Alatorre-Jimenez, Brandi Weller, Meike Orlick, William San Pablo

Posters

Introduction: Microvillous Inclusion Disease (MVID) (OMIM#251850) is a rare autosomal recessive condition caused by mutations or deletions mostly in the MYH6 gene but also STX3 and STXBP2 genes. It is characterized by protracted diarrhea with severe congenital alteration of the intestinal epithelium resulting in watery diarrhea, metabolic acidosis, failure to thrive, and permanent malabsorption that normally leads to a lifelong dependency on total parenteral nutrition (TPN) and the eventual possibility of bowel transplantation . Histological hallmarks of MVID in small intestinal biopsies are hypoplastic, atrophic, or disorganized villi without crypt hypertrophy, or immune cell infiltrate and, at the intestinal cellular …

Endoscopic Removal Of Safety Pin From Appendiceal Orifice, Alex Biller, Moises Alatorre-Jimenez, Jeremy Stewart, Ruba A. Abdelhadi

Posters

Introduction: Foreign body ingestion in children is considered a common concern in every Emergency Department worldwide. In the United States, it is estimated that foreign body ingestions cause approximately 1,500 deaths yearly (1). Safety pins ingestions are estimated to be 1% of the foreign body ingestions in children (2). In literature, ingested safety pins have been reported to be lodged mostly in the upper gastrointestinal tract, but a few cases have been reported to be lodged in the appendix (2,3,4). Objective: Recommendations for safety pin ingestions when past the second portion of the duodenum. Case: We report the case of …
