Penicillin allergy, the most commonly reported allergy in a pediatric patient, is associated with increases in cost of care, hospitalization and morbidity, as well as contributing to antibiotic resistance. However, 95% of patients labeled with a penicillin allergy do not have a true allergy. The Centers for Disease Control & Prevention has identified improper use of antibiotics to be an important factor that must be addressed for both patient safety and public health. This presentation will identify high-risk symptoms of allergy, differentiate between adverse reactions, IgE-mediated allergic reaction and delayed T-cell reactions, as well as discuss appropriate testing for penicillin allergy. Additionally, the presenter will address alternative antibiotics that can be used until a formal allergy evaluation can be completed.

Lyme disease is the most common vector-borne disease in the United States, with approximately 476,000 people diagnosed and treated each year. Many patients with undiagnosed and untreated early Lyme disease will progress to disseminated Lyme disease. Disseminated Lyme disease is often treated in the acute care setting and may be difficult for providers to identify without the classic erythema migrans rash of early localized Lyme disease. This webinar will review presentations of disseminated Lyme disease in pediatric patients as well as appropriate diagnostics and treatment plans utilizing the 2020 Lyme disease guidelines.

Before 2018, there were no U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved medications for managing seizures in Dravet syndrome (DS). Common agents used in the antiepileptic drug regimens of patients with DS included clobazam, valproic acid, topiramate, and levetiracetam, among others; however, these agents alone rarely provide adequate seizure control. Management of seizures in DS changed in recent years with the approval of cannabidiol and stiripentol in 2018 and fenfluramine in 2020. This continuing education article summarizes available efficacy and safety data involving cannabidiol, stiripentol, and fenfluramine and provides a practical review of dosing strategies, pharmacokinetics, and monitoring interventions relevant to their use.

This session will focus on the increased prevalence of anxiety and depression in children and adolescents in our post-COVID society. The lack of available child psychology and psychiatry services has increased the role of pediatric-focused NPs in providing evidence-based treatment of young patients with these diagnoses throughout the pandemic. Using case-based scenarios and interactive technology, participants will discuss factors impacting symptom presentation and review pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic treatment strategies. Innovative, COVID-friendly mental health resources and coping strategies for children, adolescents and their families will be presented.
