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: Recognition and Management of Pediatric Dental Trauma and Infections
1.0 NAPNAP contact hour. This continuing education activity is offered free to NAPNAP Members. For nonmembers, this continuing education activity rate is $10. Dental emergencies are common during childhood and typically occur due to trauma or infection. The current evidence on managing dental injuries is from a dental perspective, with limited information on treating pediatric dental injuries in medical settings. Proper treatment of infection, correct storage, prompt repositioning, and replantation are essential for successful outcomes, as supported by the latest evidence-based guidelines. Pediatric patients have a better prognosis when proper treatment is provided without delay. Understanding potential issues enables providers to assess the severity of the condition, offer initial guidance and management, and recommend appropriate follow-up dental care. This continuing education activity aims to educate providers on how to care for children with low-acuity dental injuries and infections using an evidence-based approach. J pediatr Health Care.

JPHC CE: Use of Atypical Antipsychotics in Pediatric Populations
1.75 NAPNAP contact hour of which 1.75 contain pharmacology content (Rx). This continuing education activity is offered free to NAPNAP Members. For nonmembers, this continuing education activity rate is $10. Atypical antipsychotic medications have served as mainstays in the treatment of pediatric-onset bipolar disorder and schizophrenia and are typically prescribed by psychiatric providers. These medications also have an important role in treating specific behaviors associated with other pediatric diagnoses, including autism spec-trum disorder, disruptive behavior disorders, and tic disorders. Nurse practitioners play an important role in initiating treatment in children who require these drugs and monitoring those who are already prescribed these medications by psychiatric professionals. The pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and pharmacogenomic implications for aripiprazole, olanzapine, quetiapine, and risperidone are described. This article reviews appropriate approaches to prescribing, monitoring for efficacy and side effects, and considerations when tapering or discontinuing antipsychotic medications.

JPHC CE: Improving the Healthcare Experience Through Improved Communication for Individuals with Autism Across the Spectrum: A Tutorial
0.75 NAPNAP contact hour. This continuing education activity is offered free to NAPNAP Members. For nonmembers, this continuing education activity rate is $10. Individuals with autism experience many barriers to receiving high quality healthcare. With 1 in 31 children now being diagnosed with autism, a number that has only been increasing over the last decade, it is imperative to address these barriers. One of the most prevalent barriers is communication. Social communication challenges are a defining characteristic of autism, but there exists a wide spectrum of communication abilities that can be difficult for healthcare providers to understand. This tutorial introduces the differences in informational processing experienced by those with autism with practical guidance on how healthcare providers can individualize their approach to communication when providing patient-centered care. The three levels of autism support are used as a framework, with suggestions specific to each level to help healthcare providers better understand the differences seen in autism and how they can more readily address the needs of each patient.
