  • Actual and Preferred Location of Death for Children Known to a Palliative Care Service

    Open AccessVictoria Sun, Sandra Coombs et al.ARTICLEOMEGA - Journal of Death and Dying2026

    This study aimed to establish the frequency and congruence between preferred and actual locations of expected pediatric deaths and to identify associated factors. A retrospective review of death review forms and medical records was conducted in two pediatric palliative care services in Sydney, Australia, involving 486 patients who died between January 2017 and May 2024). Hospital was the most common LOD (49.8%), then home (28.4%) and hospice (21.…

  • Biography Writing in the Pediatric Palliative Care Context

    Open AccessSarah Potter, Sandra Coombs et al.ARTICLEChildren2024

  • Predicting the Need for Transition from Pediatric to Adult Pain Services

    Open AccessJoel Champion, Matthew Crawford et al.ARTICLEChildren2023

    A proportion of youth with chronic pain do not respond to interdisciplinary pain management and may require transition to adult pain services. This study sought to characterize a cohort of patients referred to pediatric pain services who subsequently required referral to an adult pain service. We compared this transition group with pediatric patients eligible by age to transition but who did not transition to adult services. We sought to identify…

  • Back Pain without Disease or Substantial Injury in Children and Adolescents

    Open AccessTessa Beerstra, Minh Bui et al.ARTICLEChildren2023

    This twin family study first aimed to investigate the evidence for genetic factors predicting the risk of lifetime prevalence of non-specific low back pain of at least three months duration (LBP (life)) and one-month current prevalence of thoracolumbar back pain (TLBP (current)) using a study of children, adolescents, and their first-degree relatives. Secondly, the study aimed to identify associations between pain in the back with pain in other r…

  • Familial and Genetic Influences on the Common Pediatric Primary Pain Disorders

    Open AccessG David Champion, Minh Bui et al.ARTICLEChildren2021

    The primary pain disorders of childhood are highly prevalent but have infrequently been studied collectively. Genetic influences have been suggested to be causally implicated. Surveys were sent to 3909 Australian twin families, assessing the lifetime prevalence of growing pains, migraine, headache, recurrent abdominal pain, low back pain, and persistent pain (not otherwise specified) in pediatric twins and their immediate family members. Comparis…

  • Somatosensory Testing in Pediatric Patients with Chronic Pain

    Open AccessAnna Kersch, Panchalee Perera et al.ARTICLEChildren2020

    We aimed to evaluate the utility of clinical somatosensory testing (SST), an office adaptation of laboratory quantitative sensory testing, in a biopsychosocial assessment of a pediatric chronic somatic pain sample (N = 98, 65 females, 7-18 years). Stimulus-response tests were applied at pain regions and intra-subject control sites to cutaneous stimuli (simple and dynamic touch, punctate pressure and cool) and deep pressure stimuli (using a handhe…

  • Factors Associated With the Location of Expected Pediatric Deaths in the Palliative Care Context

    Open AccessSandra Coombs, Phillip Aouad et al.ARTICLEOMEGA - Journal of Death and Dying2020

    Early planning and knowing which factors to consider when planning the location of death (LOD) of a palliative child, may help minimize the burden of hasty decision-making in the future, and may provide families with a sense of control. The current paper reviewed which factors were associated with pediatric LOD and further considered some emerging factors that should are important to better facilitate integrative planning. Three overarching areas…

  • In search of risk factors for chronic pain in adolescents

    Open AccessDAVID CHAMPION, Carlos Thiebaut Luis et al.ARTICLEJournal of Pain Research2014

    It may be helpful when assessing a child who has chronic pain or is at risk of chronic pain, to enquire about these associations. Based on the current findings, an individual history of migraine, non-migraine headaches, and RAP, as well as parental migraine, RAP, and RLS are symptoms that are of particular relevance to assess.
