This presentation will cover a multitude of neurological symptoms that almost always present to primary care providers in outpatient setting. We will review common complaints such as headache, toe walking, abnormal movements, vomiting and more as we journey the history taking process to recognize red flags and prompt referral to specialty care. Using case-based examples, you will learn why early hand preference may indicate stroke and why a teen girl with migraines may be presenting with a thrombosis.

Consequently, placement availability and stability have reached a critical state and larger numbers of children in the welfare system are without placements leading to situations where children are sleeping in CPS offices and hotel rooms. The NP is a gatekeeper for the children and families involved in the welfare system. This presentation will provide practical applications that NPs can implement in their practices to support placement stability and improve the life of the child in foster care.

The 2019 Journal of Pediatric Surgery Evidence-based Practice systematic review of the non-operative management of solid organ injuries advises it may be safe to send children with solid organ injuries home sooner with less intervention and supports outpatient management with primary care providers. The management of solid organ injuries has been evolving over the last 10 years and understanding these new Pediatric Surgical Association’s guidelines have implications for advanced practice providers in both primary and acute care settings. The lecture will review the epidemiology of pediatric solid organ injury, the indications for non-operative management and will focus on the recommendations which outpatient pediatric-focused NPs can use to advise families on activity, follow-up and need for emergent re-assessment.

Diabetes is a chronic condition that requires intensive medical and psychological management with rapidly rising prevalence in the U.S. The most common form of pediatric diabetes is type 1 diabetes, affecting 1.25 million children who are two to four times more likely to have other autoimmune conditions including Hashimoto's thyroiditis, celiac disease and adrenal insufficiency than the general population. Timely screenings as recommended by the American Diabetes Association and proper assessment is key to identifying comorbidities and preventing both diabetes related complications as well as treating associated endocrine pathologies including those that can be potentially life threatening. This case-based, interactive presentation will provide pediatric advanced practice providers with robust clinical pearls on recognizing and managing endocrine disorders commonly seen in patients with diabetes mellitus, type 1.

This presentation will discuss up to date recommendations and review evidence-based guidelines for multiple developmental domains including motor, cognitive, communication, eating/drinking, vision, sleep, tone and musculoskeletal.

The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends medication assisted treatment for adolescents with opioid use disorders (MOUD) but less than 12% of affected youth ever receive treatment and even fewer receive MOUD. In an effort to get evidence-based treatment to people with OUD, in 2021 the HHS relaxed the laws that govern MOUD prescribing. Similar to collaborative care approaches to treatment of other mental health disorders, pediatric-focused NPs should be the first person their patients look to for helping them recover from OUDs. This case-based presentation will give participants an overview of screening and evidence-based treatment for youth with OUDs, followed by practical advice and resources for preparing a practice to care for this population.
