[PMID: 36921450 DOI: 10.1016/j.clinimag.2023.02.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/14/2022] [Revised: 01/23/2023] [Accepted: 02/07/2023] [Indexed: 02/12/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate central venous access placement trends for radiology and non-radiology services over the last decade. MATERIALS AND METHODS Children who had central venous access procedures included in a large administrative database of 49 pediatric institutions in the United States between 2010 and 2020 were included. Patient demographics and patient specific factors were compared between groups. The percentage of procedures performed by interventional radiology (IR) and non-radiology services were compared over time and by region. RESULTS A total of 483,181 vascular access encounters were recorded (45.3% female; median age 2 years (IQR 0-11 years)). Approximately one quarter of vascular access encounters were IR-led, with a slight increase of 3.8% between 2010 and 2020. Children who underwent IR-placed vascular access were older (median age of 4 years compared to 1 year in non-radiology encounters). Interventional radiology-placed access was greatest in the Midwest (33.5%) with a decrease of 5.9% over the study period; in the other three regions, IR-performed encounters increased. Patient comorbidities more prevalent in the IR encounters were technology dependence (42.4% of all radiology encounters), gastrointestinal (34.9%), respiratory (20.8%), and transplant (8.1%), while those which were more prevalent in the non-radiology encounters were nephrology/urology (21.4% of all non-radiology encounters), prematurity/neonatal (17.3%), and malignancy (17.3%). CONCLUSIONS Interventional radiology-provided vascular access services have slightly increased over the last decade without significant service-line transfer to other specialties. Underlying comorbidities in IR-led vascular access encounters vary across institutions based on referral patterns, possibly reflecting the adoption of ultrasound guidance by other pediatric subspecialties.

Abstract
Over the past 50 years, image-guided procedures have been established for a wide range of applications. The development and clinical translation of new treatment regimens necessitate the availability of suitable animal models. The juvenile Göttingen minipig presents a favourable profile as a model for human infants. However, no information can be found regarding the vascular system of juvenile minipigs in the literature. Such information is imperative for planning the accessibility of target structures by catheterization. We present here a complete mapping of the arterial system of the juvenile minipig based on contrast-enhanced computed tomography. Four female animals weighing 6.13 ± 0.72 kg were used for the analyses. Imaging was performed under anaesthesia, and the measurement of the vascular structures was performed independently by four investigators. Our dataset forms a basis for future interventional studies in juvenile minipigs, and enables planning and refinement of future experiments according to the 3R (replacement, reduction and refinement) principles of animal research.

Abstract
Paediatric interventional radiology (IR) is a rapidly developing subspecialty, seeking to meet the increasing demand for image-guided minimally invasive procedures. The wide range of procedures performed and the conditions treated reflect the varying ages and complexity of the patient population. This article reviews the various interventional procedures performed and the unique challenges faced in paediatric IR. Conditions, such as vascular anomalies, that are primarily treated by paediatric interventional radiologists are highlighted. The requirements for establishing a paediatric IR practice are reviewed, as are the challenges facing the future development of the specialty.Keywords: pediatric interventional radiology
