JPHC CE: Approaches to Treating Children With ADHD and Common Comorbidities 1.0 NAPNAP contact hour of which 1.0 contain pharmacology content (Rx), (1.0 is related to psychopharmacology), (0.25 is related to controlled substance). This continuing education activity is offered free to NAPNAP Members. For nonmembers, this continuing education activity rate is $10. Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is the most common mental health disorder among children and adolescents, with a prevalence rate of 9.8% in children 3 to 17 years of age (Bitsko et al., 2022). The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) has published guidelines for treatment of ADHD in children and adolescents ages 4 to 17 years that address diagnosis, treatment and monitoring of ADHD (Wolraich et al., 2019). The AAP guidelines do not address treatment of children with co-morbidities but identify the treatment of ADHD in children with comorbidities as an area for future research. To address this gap, a review of ADHD treatment in children with comorbidities including anxiety, depression, substance use disorder (SUD), epilepsy, tic disorders (TD), oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), learning disabilities (LD), autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and sleep disorders was conducted.

JPHC CE: Monitoring Vaccine Safety: United States Vaccine Safety Surveillance Systems 1.0 NAPNAP contact hour of which contain 1.0 pharmacology content. This continuing education activity is offered free to NAPNAP Members. For nonmembers, this continuing education activity rate is $10. Immunization is an effective public health tool to protect children from hospitalization and death from vaccine-preventable diseases. Vaccine safety monitoring is essential to understand risks of vaccination. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention closely monitors vaccine safety through multiple surveillance systems, including V-safe, the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), the Vaccine Safety Datalink (VSD), and the Clinical Immunization Safety Assessment (CISA) network. This paper briefly discusses each surveillance system and available evidence that healthcare providers can use to respond to common vaccine concerns. As trusted sources of information about vaccines, pediatric nurses and nurse practitioners need to understand how vaccine safety is monitored, where to access reliable resources about vaccines, and when and where to report adverse events noted after vaccination.

JPHC CE: Sexting and Sextortion in Adolescents: Essentials for the PNP 1.0 NAPNAP contact hour. This continuing education activity is offered free to NAPNAP Members. For nonmembers, this continuing education activity rate is $10. Sexting and sextortion are increasingly common concerns among adolescents, presenting significant challenges for pediatric nurse practitioners (PNPs). Sexting, or digital sharing of self-produced nude or otherwise sexual images, is increasingly seen as a normative part of adolescent sexual exploration, but carries substantial risks, particularly when images are shared non-consensually, by minors, or used as a method of bullying or extortion (“sextortion”). PNPs play a critical role in early identification of any nonconsensual texting and by providing education to adolescents so they may explore their sexuality safely, resist peer pressure, and maintain boundaries.

JPHC CE: The Landscape of Substance Use in Youth-2024 1.0 NAPNAP contact hour. This continuing education activity is offered free to NAPNAP Members. For nonmembers, this continuing education activity rate is $10. An essential role of pediatric providers is to counsel youth and parents on behavioral health issues, including the use of Alcohol or other drugs (AODs). Although substance use by adolescents has decreased, a significant number of adolescents use AODs, causing those with regular use to be at risk of developing behavioral, physical, and mental health consequences that can continue into adulthood. This article was written to help pediatric providers understand the scope and associated effects of AOD use in their adolescent patients and equip them to counsel, identify, and intervene to reduce the harm to their patients who use AODs.

JPHC CE: The Resurgence of Syphilis: A Critical Public Health Concern 1.25 NAPNAP contact hour of which 0.5 contain pharmacology content (Rx). This continuing education activity is offered free to NAPNAP Members. For nonmembers, this continuing education activity rate is $10. Syphilis, a sexually transmitted infection caused by Treponema pallidum, has become a concerning resurgence in recent years, particularly in the United States. Of significant concern is the steep rise in congenital syphilis cases, which poses grave risks to maternal and neonatal health. This article provides an overview of the epidemiology, risk factors, clinical manifestations, screening methods, and treatment strategies for syphilis, with a specific focus on congenital transmission. Drawing upon current literature and guidelines, the paper underscores the importance of early detection and intervention to prevent adverse outcomes associated with congenital syphilis. Furthermore, the article highlights the challenges in syphilis diagnosis, including the interpretation of serological tests and the management of neurosyphilis. Recommendations for practice, including screening protocols and treatment regimens, are discussed in detail. The conclusion emphasizes the urgent need for collaborative efforts among healthcare providers, public health agencies, and community stakeholders to address the syphilis epidemic effectively. By adhering to evidence-based guidelines and leveraging available resources, clinicians can play a pivotal role in reducing the burden of syphilis and safeguarding the health of vulnerable populations, particularly pregnant women and infants.

JPHC CE: Trauma Exposure in Migrant Children: Implications for Mental and Physical Health 1.5 NAPNAP contact hour. This continuing education activity is offered free to NAPNAP Members. For nonmembers, this continuing education activity rate is $10. Global migration is a public health crisis of epidemic proportions. Migrants are at risk for a variety of physical and mental health concerns, while having limited access to healthcare. Migrant children are especially vulnerable to experiencing significant trauma, both physical and emotional. Children comprise less than one third of the global population, yet nearly half of migrants are children less than 18 years of age. The United States is home to a significant number of migrant children. Migrant children have a unique set of educational, health, and emotional needs. Given the sheer number of migrant children living in the U.S., pediatric nurse practitioners (PNP) must understand their unique needs and provide evidence-based interventions to help meet these needs. This continuing education article will discuss migrant children in terms of understanding migration, trauma exposure and resultant impact on psychological and physical health, and implications for practice.
