Interscalene brachial plexus blocks under general anesthesia in children: is this safe practice?: A report from the Pediatric Regional Anesthesia Network (PRAN).
Andreas H. Taenzer,Benjamin J. Walker,Adrian T. Bosenberg,Elliot J. Krane,Lynn D. Martin,David M. Polaner,Christie Wolf,Santhanam Suresh +7 more
TL;DR: Analyzing interscalene blocks in children placed under GA, it is found that placement of IS blocks under GA in children is no less safe than placement in awake adults, calling into question the American Society of Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine advisory proscribing GA during IS block in pediatric patients.

Predicting lumbar plexus depth in children and adolescents.
TL;DR: PSIS-ICL distance provides an accurate, patient-specific predictor for lumbar plexus depth in children over a wide range of age and body habitus and obviates the need for complex calculations.

TL;DR: The Cool Robot operated reliably at -30 C, and demonstrated good oversnow mobility and adequate GPS accuracy for waypoint-following on a 5-10 meter grid, demonstrating that autonomous vehicles have great potential to improve the efficiency of polar science.

Iatrogenic endotracheal tube obstruction with foam face padding.
TL;DR: It is concluded that in cases of acute presentation of medically resistant stridor and respiratory distress in children, the possibility of external compression of the trachea should be kept in mind and a preoperative CT-scan and fibreoptic airway evaluation should be performed prior to deciding on surgical options.

Laura E. Ray,Madeleine Jordan,S. Arcone,L. M. Kaluzienski,Benjamin J. Walker,Peter Ortquist Koons,James H. Lever,Gordon S. Hamilton +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors derived a velocity field from ground penetrating radar (GPR) data of the McMurdo shear zone (MSZ) using Eulerian sampling.
