Biofeedback and relaxation-response training in the treatment of pediatric migraine / David W. FENTRESS in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 28-2 (April 1986)

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 28-2 (April 1986) . - p.139-146 Titre : Biofeedback and relaxation-response training in the treatment of pediatric migraine Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : David W.

MEHEGAN, Auteur ; Herbert BENSON, Auteur Année de publication : 1986 Article en page(s) : p.139-146 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : To assess the efficacy of electromyographic biofeedback, relaxation-response training and pain behavior management as a treatment for pediatric migraine, we studied 18 children between the ages of eight and 12 years (mean = 10 X 1) in a prospective, randomized, controlled investigation. Six patients received all three treatment procedures, six received relaxation-response training and pain behavior management, and the remaining six constituted a waiting-list control group. All patients kept a record of their headaches for the 15-week study period and then for four weeks one year later. Following four weeks of baseline, the treatment groups completed nine one-hour treatment sessions in 11 weeks. Both treatment groups experienced a significant reduction in headache symptoms and were significantly improved compared to the waiting-list control group by the end of treatment. The treatment groups did not differ from each other in any of these comparisons. The reduction in headache symptoms in the treatment groups was maintained one year after treatment ended. These results suggest that relaxation-response training, with or without biofeedback training, combined with pain behavior management, is an effective alternative treatment for pediatric migraine.

CT scans showed many different pathways of spread of tentorial hemorrhage; the likelihood of an arterial source is emphasized. Recurrent or delayed bleeding was documented twice. Surgical evacuation of hematomas was necessary in 10 cases, seven involving hemorrhage into the posterior fossa. There were three deaths, one due to pulmonary hemorrhage complicating subtentorial subdural hematoma, another due to severe central parenchymal hemorrhage and a third because of postoperative cerebellar hemorrhage due to disseminated intravascular coagulation. Three survivors are dependent on shunts, two because of the birth injury. The outcome for neurological and intellectual function depends more on associated asphyxia than on the trauma.

Children were classified as normal, suspect or abnormal on the three-year neurological examination, on the IQ test, and on composite neurodevelopmental outcome at age three years. Results showed that items from both the nine- and 12-month neurodevelopmental examinations correctly classified about 80 per cent of the children as to composite outcome at three years. In addition, the 12-month examination enabled correct prediction for 89 per cent of the children as to neurological outcome and for 82 per cent as to IQ. Neurodevelopmental examination of high-risk infants in the last quarter of the first year of life (post-term) should assist pediatricians in predicting which children will be normal and which will require early intervention.

Use of chronological and adjusted ages to compare motor development of healthy preterm and fullterm infants / Robert J. PALISANO in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 28-2 (April 1986)

PALISANO, Auteur Année de publication : 1986 Article en page(s) : p.180-187 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : To investigate the influence of gestational age at birth on motor development in infancy and the practice of basing motor assessments of preterm infants on an adjusted age, 21 healthy preterm and 23 fullterm infants were administered the Peabody Developmental Motor Scales at 12, 15 and 18 months of age. When quotients were based on chronological age, both the mean gross-motor and fine-motor developmental quotients of the fullterm group were significantly higher than those of the preterm group, indicating that the fullterm group had higher levels of motor development. However, when the quotients of the preterm group were based on adjusted age, which accounted for gestational age at birth, the motor quotients of the two groups did not differ significantly. It seems that motor development of healthy preterm and fullterm infants differs primarily as a function of gestational age at birth, which supports maturational theory and the practice of making age adjustments when evaluating motor development of preterm infants.

ELLIOTT, Auteur Année de publication : 1986 Article en page(s) : p.188-193 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Two recent papers (Laszlo and Bairstow 1980, Bairstow and Laszlo 1981) have used the method of constant stimuli to measure kinaesthetic difference thresholds. If this method is used, however, certain constraints must be observed: these concern the values of the stimuli relative to the threshold, and the numbers of observations made at each value. Laszlo and Bairstow appear to have neglected these constraints, which must cast doubt on their results. In any case, the method of constant stimuli has largely been superseded by staircase techniques for threshold estimation, on grounds of economy of trials for a given level of accuracy in estimation. It is concluded, therefore, that the details of the method as described by Laszlo and Bairstow are unsuitable for testing kinaesthetic sensitivity, and that other methods are preferable.

Pain, most commonly in the back, was the initial symptom for 12 patients; for another six it was weakness and for two urinary retention. All patients had weakness of the legs, and 11 had arm weakness as well. Five patients had very acute onset of severe weakness and were unable to walk within three hours of onset of symptoms. Two children made no significant recovery; for the remainder onset of recovery was evident within two to 17 days. 12 patients later were normal or had only minimal neurological deficit, but nine had a poor outcome with major disturbance of motor or sphincter function. Only one of the five with very acute onset had a good outcome. Over-all, the prognosis after acute transverse myelopathy in childhood is a little better than that reported for adults.

This study reports the changing CSF cell-populations during 26 episodes of ventriculitis in children with shunts to control hjydrocephalus. There was a significant discordance between lymphocytes and macrophages in the CSF. Neurosurgery led to a 20 per cent increase in neutrophils on the first postoperative day, with a progressive decline to a mean of 10 cells on the fourth postoperative day. There was a small decrease in lymphocytes on the first postoperative day, followed by an increase on the second day. Macrophages were reduced by 12 per cent on the first postoperative day and then steadily increased from the second to the fourth day. A mean number of two peaks (of all cells) occurred during the treatment for ventriculitis: there was a greater number of of neutrophils in the first peak, with less lymphocytes and macrophages than in the second peak. This study supports the advantages of this technique in the diagnosis and management of ventriculitis.

A mean number of two peaks (of all cells) occurred during the treatment for ventriculitis: there was a greater number of of neutrophils in the first peak, with less lymphocytes and macrophages than in the second peak. This study supports the advantages of this technique in the diagnosis and management of ventriculitis. Permalink : https://www.cra-rhone-alpes.org/cid/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=612

Stress in families of children with myelomeningocele / Anne E. KAZAK in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 28-2 (April 1986)

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 28-2 (April 1986) . - p.220-228 Titre : Stress in families of children with myelomeningocele Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Anne E. KAZAK, Auteur ; Mary Williams CLARK, Auteur Année de publication : 1986 Article en page(s) : p.220-228 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Three aspects of stress were investigated in 56 families with a child with myelomeningocele and in 53 matched comparison families. Children with myelomeningocele were found to have lower self-concepts than the comparison children, but this did not apply to the siblings in the two groups. Severity of handicap was related to marital satisfaction, in that parents of more severely handicapped children had higher levels of marital satisfaction than parents of less severely involved children. The findings imply that ways should be found of improving the self-concepts of children with myelomeningocele, and of examining interrelationships between the child's self-concept and patterns of family interaction.

TERDAL, Auteur Année de publication : 1986 Article en page(s) : p.229-235 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Fenfluramine was administered to eight autistic outpatients in a double-blind study to determine its effects on symptomatic behavior, developmental scores, blood serotonin levels and platelet counts. Two children benefited substantially according to academic and cognitive tests, parental and teacher reports and the principal investigator's clinical impressions. They also manifested behavioral and mood swings. The remaining six children showed varying degrees of response; one was withdrawn during the study by his parents. The greatest improvement occurred in children with an IQ above 40; the more severely retarded improved little, and primarily in the motor sphere.

Two have juvenile Tay-Sachs disease with hexosaminidase A deficiency and three have juvenile Sandhoff disease with hexosaminidase A and B deficiency. The contributing factors in the spectrum of the hexosaminidase deficiency disease are outlined, and previously reported cases of late-onset Tay-Sachs and Sandhoff disease are reviewed. The heterogeneity of the effects of hexosaminidase deficiency is discussed, with the recommendation that the diagnosis be considered, in its various forms, when there is no other obvious explanation.
