<p><strong>PURPOSE: </strong>This study aimed to elucidate experiences and preferences for survivorship care delivery among adolescent and young adult (AYA) childhood cancer survivors who experienced healthcare transitions.</p>

<p><strong>METHODS: </strong>Eight focus groups were conducted with two groups of AYA survivors and their parents: (1) those who recently completed cancer treatment and are beginning follow-up care and (2) those who disengaged in follow-up care after the transition from pediatric to adult survivorship clinics. Interviewers used a structured interview guide that contained questions about perceptions and preferences for survivorship care models, resources, and tools (e.g., a survivorship care plan). We employed directed content analysis techniques to identify and organize relevant themes.</p>

<p><strong>RESULTS: </strong>Results of this study support six primary themes for optimizing survivorship care models for AYA: (1) improve knowledge of late effects and need for LTFU; (2) provide supportive services that help to address fear and uncertainty about health; (3) adapt survivorship care to be consistent with AYA developmental factors; (4) increase support surrounding healthcare transitions; (5) improve survivorship care communication and coordination between patients and families, and between providers; and (6) incorporate digital health tools.</p>

<p><strong>CONCLUSIONS: </strong>These groups represent vulnerable patient populations in AYA survivorship care and their perspectives highlight potential clinical and research priorities for enhancing long-term care models.</p>

<p><strong>IMPLICATIONS FOR CANCER SURVIVORS: </strong>Elucidating AYA and parent recommendations for survivorship care delivery can help to promote continuous engagement in care, target unmet needs, and promote health through survivorship models that are deemed acceptable to both patients and families.</p>

<p><strong>BACKGROUND: </strong>Intraoperative hypotension may be associated with adverse outcomes in children undergoing surgery. Infants and neonates under 6 months of age have less autoregulatory cerebral reserve than older infants, yet little information exists regarding when and how often intraoperative hypotension occurs in infants.</p>

<p><strong>AIMS: </strong>To better understand the epidemiology of intraoperative hypotension in infants, we aimed to determine the prevalence of intraoperative hypotension in a generally uniform population of infants undergoing laparoscopic pyloromyotomy.</p>

<p><strong>METHODS: </strong>Vital sign data from electronic records of infants who underwent laparoscopic pyloromyotomy with general anesthesia at a children's hospital between January 1, 1998 and October 4, 2013 were analyzed. Baseline blood pressure (BP) values and intraoperative BPs were identified during eight perioperative stages based on anesthesia event timestamps. We determined the occurrence of relative (systolic BP &lt;20% below baseline) and absolute (mean arterial BP &lt;35 mmHg) intraoperative hypotension within each stage.</p>

<p><strong>RESULTS: </strong>A total of 735 full-term infants and 82 preterm infants met the study criteria. Relative intraoperative hypotension occurred in 77%, 72%, and 58% of infants in the 1-30, 31-60, and 61-90 days age groups, respectively. Absolute intraoperative hypotension was seen in 21%, 12%, and 4% of infants in the 1-30, 31-60, and 61-90 days age groups, respectively. Intraoperative hypotension occurred primarily during surgical prep and throughout the surgical procedure. Preterm infants had higher rates of absolute intraoperative hypotension than full-term infants.</p>

<p><strong>CONCLUSIONS: </strong>Relative intraoperative hypotension was routine and absolute intraoperative hypotension was common in neonates and infants under 91 days of age. Preterm infants and infants under 61 days of age experienced the highest rates of absolute and relative intraoperative hypotension, particularly during surgical prep and throughout surgery.</p>
