Introduction to the IMPACCT Rapid Paediatric Program
The IMPACCT Rapid Paediatric Program aims to gather large amounts of data in a short space of time to improve care of children in palliative care or who are experiencing chronic pain.
Paediatrics
Physiotherapy for Respiratory Deterioration - series 54
Respiratory distress is one of the leading causes to parents presenting with their child to emergency departments, with symptoms being common, recurrent, and distressing. Contemporary research has identified deterioration in respiratory status as being associated with significantly increased morbidity, impacting quality of life, reduced participation and life expectancy.
- Physiotherapy is a common first-line strategy requested to relieve increased work of breathing.
- Physiotherapists experience working with paediatric patients with multiple co-morbidities, including complex neurodisabilities.
- Choice of management strategy and response to deteriorations need to be individualised to each patient and condition.
Paediatric medicinal cannabinoids in palliative care - series 43
We want to understand what symptoms medicinal cannabis is being prescribed for in paediatric palliative care.
- Medicinal cannabis may be useful for managing treatment-resistant epilepsy, pain and other symptoms that can affect many children in palliative care.
- Medicinal cannabis may have an adjuvant or complementary role in symptom management but supporting evidence for its use and the most suitable doses is limited.
Paediatric chronic pain
Ketamine for non-cancer pain - series 41
In this series, we are seeking to establish the broad utility and toxicity of ketamine for children with chronic non-cancer pain in real-life situations.
- The series is designed to minimise the workload for any individual site through multi-site collaboration and enable Rapid data collection relatively quickly and easily.
- In this study, the data points are at baseline then 48 hours, 72 hours, and 96 hours after baseline, and then three months after the ketamine infusion has ceased.
Ketamine for cancer-related mucositis pain - series 42
In this series, we are seeking to establish the broad utility and toxicity of ketamine for children with chronic non-cancer pain and cancer pain in real-life situations.
- The series is designed to minimise the workload for any individual site through multi-site collaboration and enable Rapid data collection relatively quickly and easily.
- In this study, the data points are at baseline then 48 hours, 5 days and 10 days after baseline.
