Description
Awan writes a 2026 letter in Clinical Case Reports about watching children whose duodenum is blocked after seatbelt injuries. The blockage can come from a blood collection behind the abdominal lining, and careful non-surgical care may suit stable children. Awan argues that monitoring should not rest on stomach tube output alone. Teams should set escalation triggers in advance, combining tube output, the child's overall condition, inflammation markers, nutrition, and selective imaging, so worsening cases move to stronger treatment without delay.
