The Children’s Hospital Foundation exclusively raises millions of dollars for Kosair Children’s Hospital, Kosair Children’s Medical Center – Brownsboro and Norton Women’s and Kosair Children’s Hospital (opening in 2014 on the current Norton Suburban Hospital campus). These funds support programs, equipment and facilities, research, advocacy and education at Kentucky’s only full-service, free-standing pediatric hospital and its sister facilities. Thanks to donations from the community in 2012, the Children’s Hospital Foundation was able to provide more than $11.4 million to drive improvements and support the needs of Kosair Children’s Hospital and Kosair Children’s Medical Center – Brownsboro, which serve more than 155,000 children annually from throughout Kentucky and Southern Indiana. Looking ahead, the community’s dollars are at work more than ever before. This year, Norton Healthcare has committed more than $35 million toward a $70 million renovation project that will improve the hospital’s neonatal and pediatric intensive care units, upgrade pediatric cardiac surgery operating rooms, revamp the main entrance and add a new elevator. A nearly $90 million, two-year project is transforming the 373-bed Norton Suburban Hospital on the St. Matthews campus into a new women’s and children’s hospital, which will change the face of health care in our region. Norton Women’s and Kosair Children’s Hospital will write a new chapter in our community’s history book. It will be the first facility of its kind in our region — a testimony to the evolution of health care. Improving patient care always has been — and will always be — our top priority. And that could not happen without your support. Thanks to the community’s generosity, we have many accomplishments and milestones to celebrate and be thankful for; but we have even more to strive for in the future. On behalf of everyone at Kosair Children’s Hospital and Kosair Children’s Medical Center – Brownsboro, we thank you for partnering with us as we move forward. Thomas D.

Bess, 17, is a soccer player attending Bellarmine University and studying physical therapy. Ike is 14 and loves to golf, listen to music and play the drums. And then there is Annie, 11, the Johnson family’s “greatest miracle.” ›› 3 CART WHEELS CART WHEELS As Kosair Children’s Hospital grows, personalized care continues Ahead of the times Dean Lavenson Photos Kentucky requires newborn heart screening, a longtime practice at Kosair Children’s Hospital B ess is the only child of Todd and Lee Margaret Johnson born without a heart condition. Todd and Lee have spent numerous evenings — 14 months’ worth by their calculations — at Kosair Children’s Hospital. That doesn’t include all the day trips from their Bardstown home for their children’s chest X-rays, lab work, outpatient cardiac catheterizations, surgeries and more. Edie was born with a hole in the center of her heart, Ike has half a heart and Annie had her first heart transplant when she was just 1 year old. From Edie’s heart repair in 1992 to Annie’s second of two heart transplants in 2010, the Johnsons have personally experienced something rare — two decades of advancements in pediatric heart care. вќ›вќ› None of our children think [the hospital is] a big scary place. Annie thinks it’s the biggest treat in the world. She is treated like a queen.” –Lee Margaret Johnson “Edie was the beginning of a very long continued relationship with Kosair Children’s Hospital and the group of special people there who take care of heart kids,” Lee said. “The first eight months of Edie’s life was spent trying to keep her out of heart failure. We spent many nights on вЂ�4 West’ that summer and fall.” 4 West is the surgical floor at Kosair Children’s Hospital. Back during Edie’s first visit, the hospital had five floors, and physicians performed surgeries across the street at Norton Hospital. 4 Today, surgeons operate on patients at Kosair Children’s Hospital, which now has eight floors. The 26-bed “Just for Kids” Critical Care Center will soon be expanded. It is the only pediatric intensive care unit of its kind in Kentucky. Located on the fourth floor and adorned with colorful ceiling murals, over the years the center has evolved into a place that is equipped to care for the most fragile patients. “A year’s time in the medical field and the cardiac advancements are huge,” said Lee, a first-grade teacher. “For us, it is extremely encouraging.” And now — spurred by substantial growth — Kosair Children’s Hospital is entering an unprecedented time in its care for young heart patients. The hospital, with support from the University of Louisville, has committed to bringing four additional cardiologists to Louisville in the next two years along with a third heart surgeon and support for an existing cardiologist’s training in heart failure/heart transplantation. Pediatric surgery suites will be upgraded, and 17 new beds in the “Just for Kids” Critical Care Center will become a new pediatric cardiac intensive care unit (CICU). Physicians, nurse practitioners, nurses, nurse educators, respiratory therapists and pharmacists will be specifically trained and dedicated to providing the best care to patients with heart conditions and those requiring surgery. The CICU should be completed by 2016. “The recent growth here is unparalleled,” said Erle H. Austin III, M.D., chief of cardiothoracic surgery at Kosair Children’s Hospital and professor of surgery at the University of Louisville School of Medicine. “Together with the University of Louisville, Kosair Children’s Hospital is committed to helping shepherd pediatric cardiology through this exciting stage of growth and expansion — to save hearts of more young patients.” Lee has no doubt that as Kosair Children’s Hospital continues to grow, it will continue its legacy of personal care. “As medicine has advanced and operating rooms have moved, there are staff members who have been there the whole time,” she said. “There are so many people who have been through this with us from the beginning. They truly are our family.” Once a month, for example, Annie visits Kosair Children’s Hospital for treatment to help her immune system. Each month, she announces her arrival and excitedly roams the halls in her wheelchair. “None of our children think it’s a big scary place,” Lee said. “Annie thinks it’s the biggest treat in the world. She is treated like a queen.” The Johnson family also is part of Brave Hearts, a support group of local families united by their children’s fight for life after being born with complex congenital heart defects that required surgery. As a team, supported by the Children’s Hospital Foundation, the Brave Hearts parents and children provide support for other families. –Stephanie Doyle The medical staff at Kosair Children’s Hospital has long understood that infants’ lives are saved through early detection of serious conditions. For the past two years, clinicians in the nurseries at Norton Hospital and Norton Suburban Hospital have been screening all newborns for congenital heart disease using pulse oximetry, a simple, low-cost and noninvasive test. If congenital heart disease is not detected shortly after birth, the results can be devastating. Fortunately, through the Congenital Heart Center at Kosair Children’s Hospital, a dedicated team of expert cardiovascular surgeons and cardiologists can provide exceptional care for infants diagnosed with congenital heart defects, which are often life-threatening and require treatment within the first year of life. Thanks to Kentucky Senate Bill 125, clinicians throughout Kentucky will soon be using the simple but critical pulse oximetry test to help save the lives of more newborns. During a celebration at Kosair Children’s Hospital, Gov. Steve Beshear signed the new law requiring the screening of all newborns. The bill was sought by the American Heart Association and the Kentucky Department for Public Health. “Every baby deserves a healthy start to life,” Gov. Beshear said. “This measure builds on the success of our newborn screening expansion and is a great step forward for the health of Kentucky’s infants.” By the numbers Heart care at Kosair Children’s Hospital 25 fetal echocardiograms performed each month (on average), a 50 percent increase in one year 20% increase in heart surgeries in the past year 450 specialty heart surgeries per year 420 heart catheterizations per year 12,000 noninvasive heart diagnostic studies per year 5 CART WHEELS CART WHEELS Dean Lavenson Photo T hree-month-old Jase Poppke quietly looked around inside the large doughnut-shaped computed tomography (CT) scanner, his tiny fingers wrapped around the thumb of Suzanne Loew, lead CT technologist at Kosair Children’s Hospital. Seconds later, on the other side of a glass window, Jase’s tiny heart appeared as an image on a computer screen. With the click-and-drag of a mouse, the image grew larger and incredibly detailed. The scanner uses a rapidly spinning X-ray tube inside the circular housing that takes images of the body as it moves through the opening, or “doughnut hole.” CT scans are a common diagnostic imaging tool used to examine everything from the head, heart and abdomen to the spine, pelvis and even major blood vessels. “CT imaging helps us make important diagnoses and provide important information to the physicians taking care of our pediatric patients,” said Philip Dydynski, M.D., pediatric radiologist. Dr. Dydynski is the new chief of pediatric radiology for Kosair Children’s Hospital and Kosair Children’s Medical Center – Brownsboro. He leads Norton Healthcare’s team of 11 pediatric radiologists. Jase’s CT scan was performed using a new piece of equipment called the Siemens 256-slice SOMATOM Definition Flash CT scanner. It is the latest in a series of advancements aimed at reducing radiation exposure to the hospital’s smallest patients. Kosair Children’s Hospital was the second freestanding children’s hospital in the United States to install this state-of-the-art technology. The new scanner detects the size of the patient and adjusts the radiation level of the X-ray beams accordingly, making diagnostic imaging tests even safer for children. Because these scans are sensitive to movement, children often need to be sedated to remain still during the test. However, the new scanner’s high speed allows for shorter tests, so children may not need sedation. Many tests can be completed in just a few seconds. “The end result is a radiation dose significantly less than CT machines from even a decade ago,” Dr. Dydynski said. “The new CT is fast enough to scan the entire chest in between heartbeats with great accuracy. This results in a decreased need for sedation, even in infants such as Jase.” Because Jase did not need sedation, he was back in his mother’s arms in less than 15 minutes. Pediatric cardiologists and cardiothoracic surgeons will review his images to determine what type of surgery he will need to correct a congenital heart defect called tetralogy of Fallot. “The more detailed images have made it easier to diagnose congenital heart disease among other serious conditions,” Dr. Dydynski said. The scanner at Kosair Children’s Hospital is housed in a room designed specifically with children in mind. It is decorated with a soothing color scheme and has an overhead “window” that looks out onto a serene outer space scene. These help distract young children and ease their anxiety. Reducing radiation exposure is a top priority for Norton Healthcare. The new CT scanner and room design are part of several upgrades at Norton Healthcare facilities that total more than $5 million to date. The X-ray The Poppke family room in the emergency department at Kosair Children’s Medical Center – Brownsboro was updated with a digital X-ray that acquires and transfers images in less time, reducing radiation exposure. “This allows for faster turnaround and less wait time in the emergency room,” Dr. Dydynski said. Other improvements slated for Kosair Children’s Hospital include upgrading a second digital fluoroscopy room and adding additional portable digital X-ray units. “The portable digital unit has been extremely well-received, especially by the emergency department physicians and pediatric surgeons,” Dr. Dydynski said. “It is a tremendous benefit, especially in the trauma setting, as physicians caring for the patient are able to see the X-rays instantly.” Speedy CT scans Dean Lavenson Photo Pinpointing diagnoses with state-of-the-art imaging Philip Dydynski, M.D. –Stephanie Doyle How you can help The Children’s Hospital Foundation raises funds for new and safer diagnostic imaging technology as well as services in other areas.

Colored cards ask players to act, draw, practice or talk about pain coping techniques in order to advance through the game. “Distraction Drive” and the “Land of Stinking Thinking” are two examples of places that players encounter along the way. “My favorite part about watching patients play the game is when their eyes light up and smiles appear on their faces as they enjoy the playful aspects of the game, while at the same time learning very valuable coping skills,” Dr. Carter said. Milayzia had an opportunity to play the game with Dr. Carter. “My favorite part was watching Dr. Carter act out what could happen when I don’t use belly breathing to help calm me down,” she said. “He threw a fit. It was hilarious!” Milayzia said the game helps her relax. “For a minute, I feel like a normal kid again,” she said. “I think any kid who has pain would enjoy playing this game. It is a good way to take your mind off what is going on.” “Milayzia readily began to use the coping language and strategies as she talked about her pain,” Dr. Carter said. “She began to focus on functioning more than disability.” S normal kid again. I think any kid who has pain would enjoy playing this game. It is a good way to take your mind off what is going on.” –Milayzia Shouse 8 –Lauren Davis Watch a video of Milayzia demonstrating the Monster on the Move game at the Kosair Children’s Hospital Coping Club website, www.copingclub.com. Milayzia Shouse and Bryan D. Carter, Ph.D. Dean Lavenson Photos вќ›вќ› For a minute, I feel like a ome say laughter is the best medicine. For others, laughter can simply help someone get through the day. For 9-year-old Milayzia Shouse, laughter — and a game that chases “pain monsters” away — helps her enjoy life until her doctors make the pain disappear. Milayzia’s pain is attributed to a condition called tethered cord syndrome, which will require spinal surgery. She has visited Kosair Children’s Hospital several times in search of help for excruciating pain in her legs. During many tests and visits, caregivers searched for ways to help her manage her pain in a way that medicine was not able to do. Milayzia began learning how to cope with her pain through techniques such as “belly breathing” and “creative imagery” thanks to the help of Bryan D. Carter, Ph.D., pediatric psychologist and director of the Pediatric Consultation-Liaison Service for Kosair Children’s Hospital, and his team of child psychologists and psychiatrists. To help her practice her new coping skills and distract her from pain for short periods of time, Milayzia was introduced to a board game called Monster on the Move. Monster on the Move, also known as the pain coping game, was developed by Dr. Carter and Brooke Threlkeld, Psy.D., Nationwide Children’s Hospital in Ohio, to help kids learn and actively practice pain coping techniques in a way that helps them turn it into something fun. The game also is a complementary therapy, which is based on the belief that care should be provided for the whole person — body, mind and spirit. Complementary therapies use the connection between a person’s mind, body and spirit to enhance total well-being. Other related techniques may include meditation, yoga and clinical biofeedback. “The game indirectly engages kids in the process of learning coping strategies for dealing with chronic pain while also respecting and validating their pain and distress,” said Dr. Carter, who also is professor of pediatrics in the Division of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Psychology at the University of Louisville School of Medicine. Though Milayzia will be glad to have her tethered cord pain addressed by a talented neurosurgeon, in the meantime she is learning coping skills with the help of a special monster named Mo.

While sitting around a campfire — admittedly with one leg swung over an armrest of a foldable chair — the 13-year-old fell out of his chair when its front legs collapsed. His left hand broke his fall but plunged into the fire pit. Although it had prevented his head from falling into the fire, his hand was severely burned. Devin got himself up and began to run for help but quickly realized his coveralls were on fire. He did what he had been taught — stop, drop and roll — and was able to extinguish the fire. A local hospital told the O’Keefes that Devin needed advanced burn care. He was transported to the Kosair Children’s Hospital pediatric burn unit — the same place that treated the survivors of the Carrollton, Ky., bus crash 25 years ago. The burn unit cares for about 3,000 pediatric and adult patients each year. Devin was treated for second- and third-degree thermal burns. Thermal burns are caused by any external heat source, such as fire, steam, hot liquid, or by direct contact with a hot object, such as a hot oven rack or cooking pan, according to Mary E. Fallat, M.D., chief of surgical services, Kosair Children’s Hospital. The more severe the burn, the more difficult it is to heal. Thirddegree burns are the most serious and involve all layers of the skin. They cause permanent tissue damage and may affect fat, muscle and even bone. Two areas of Kosair Children’s Hospital care for children with major burns: the “Just for Kids” Critical Care Center and the burn unit. Both areas are fully equipped to manage traumatic injuries and have specially trained nurses and physical therapists. Devin was admitted to the “Just for Kids” Critical Care Center. “His hand was basically a giant blister, even between his fingers,” said his mother, Lisa O’Keefe. During his 12-day hospital stay, Devin underwent two surgical debridements, a procedure to remove dead, damaged or infected tissue. “Debridement improves the healing potential of the remaining healthy tissue and is an important part of the healing process for burns,” said Dr. Fallat, who also is division chief, pediatric surgery, University of Louisville School of Medicine. Because so many layers of tissue are affected by burns, they are very painful. Devin’s burn was particularly painful because of its location. “Burns on the surface of the palm of the hand are very painful. There are many nerve sensors in that part of the hand,” said Janice Bickett, APRN, clinical coordinator of trauma services at Kosair Children’s Hospital. Many of these types of burns are grafted, meaning the damaged areas are covered with healthy skin from another part of the patient’s body. In Devin’s case, they opted for hydrofiber dressing, which helps keep the wound moist while the skin heals. “When deemed appropriate for the patient, hydrofiber dressing can be very useful,” Bickett said. “It provides an opportunity for increased pain control, as the dressing remains intact until the injury is healed and peels off of the affected area. It also has the potential to decrease length of stay in the hospital. For Devin, we achieved excellent results — and didn’t have to graft him.” Nine months after his injury, Devin is wearing a pressure glove to help improve circulation and prevent scarring. Soon he can stop wearing the glove, but the high school freshman is already back to his favorite outdoor pastimes — hunting, fishing and, yes, camping — although he enjoys the campfire a little differently now. “I learned my lesson about how to sit properly in a chair,” he said. –Stephanie Doyle Organization supports burn patients Nineteen years ago, 40 members of the Kentucky Fire Sprinkler Contractors Association (KFSCA) decided to do something for the community. “Kosair Children’s Hospital’s pediatric burn unit seemed like a perfect fit,” said Angela Underwood, event planner for the association. “The entire focus of our industry is on minimizing death and property loss with our technology. The pediatric burn unit holds a special place with our members because it eases the suffering of young fire victims.” As a way of giving back to Kosair Children’s Hospital, the organization began holding a golf scramble and silent auction to raise funds for the pediatric burn unit. The 19th annual KFSCA Foundation Golf Outing will be held Oct. 7, 2013, at the Cardinal Club in Simpsonville, Ky. Since its inception, this event has raised nearly $400,000 for various organizations whose focus is fire prevention and safety. You can get involved with the golf outing by participating, becoming a sponsor or purchasing raffle tickets for a chance to win an iPad Mini. Tickets are $5 each, and only 200 will be sold. “We hope to have many attractive items up for bid this year at our charity silent auction,” Underwood said.

While working in the NICU, Sauer had cared for dozens of babies — singletons, twins and triplets. Little did this registered nurse know, however, that her own babies — quadruplets — would be cared for in that same NICU, which happens to be one of the largest in the United States. вќ›вќ› Knowing that my babies were being given excellent care by the amazing NICU staff helped ease my fears. I’ve never met a group of people who care so much for others. I get emotional just thinking about how great everyone was to us. We are so very grateful.” –Lindsay Sauer “The hospital stay was long but absolutely worth it,” said Sauer, who was cared for by Thomas N. Tabb, M.D., perinatologist with Kosair Children’s Hospital Maternal-Fetal Medicine Specialists. “Dr. Tabb checked on me almost every day and his positive, upbeat attitude gave me the confidence to keep hanging on.” “We’re so thankful for meeting with Dr. Tabb and cannot say enough good things about this man and his nurses,” said new dad Brandon Sauer. “We are a family of six now — such a crazy thing to say. But six it is, and we’re in this together and have been since that first day in Dr. Tabb’s office.” Despite Lindsay Sauer’s experience working in the NICU, seeing her own children in the unit’s tiny beds proved challenging. “Having them in the NICU was definitely difficult,” she said. “It gave me a different perspective on things. It’s nearly impossible to explain how hard it is to leave your tiny newborn babies in the hospital and go home.” Sauer’s first night at home without the babies brought many tears. “Nothing can make that separation easier,” she said. “But knowing that my babies were being given excellent care by the amazing NICU staff helped ease my fears. I’ve never met a group of people who care so much for others. I get emotional just thinking about how great everyone was to us. We are so very grateful.” Sauer has headed back to work in the NICU with a new viewpoint on what it’s like for families with babies in the hospital. “I will be able to better relate to the parents of my patients since I’ve been on the opposite side of care now,” she said. –Stephanie Doyle Nick Bonura Photo “I could have never expected my kids to end up in the NICU, but everything happens for a reason,” Sauer said. “Maybe they were given to me because I have experience with premature babies.” After six weeks on bed rest at Norton Hospital, Sauer’s babies arrived prematurely via cesarean section. At 8:42 p.m. on Saturday, March 9, Lucas George entered the world as the biggest Sauer baby at 4 pounds, 4 ounces. He was followed by brothers Silas Cole at 3 pounds, 13 ounces; and Maxwell Carter at 3 pounds, 14 ounces. Then the Sauer family welcomed little sister Avery Catherine, the smallest of the babies at 2 pounds, 9 ounces.

AUGUST need a boost, too Getting on board with booster seat safety National guidelines recommend children should ride in a booster seat if they are: UNDER 8 years old 57 inches tall 80 pounds Y our 7-year-old may pout over having to sit in a booster seat in the car, but doing so reduces the risk of injury if he or she is involved in an accident, according to the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP). “Moving a child to a less restrictive seat too soon can be a step backward in terms of safety,” said Sharon Rengers, R.N., supervisor of the Children’s Hospital Foundation Office of Child Advocacy of Kosair Children’s Hospital. All children under age 8 should ride in a booster seat until they reach 57 inches tall or weigh more than 80 to 85 pounds. At that time, an adult should check that the car’s seat belt fits correctly, according to the AAP. An adult seat belt that does not fit a child properly can actually cause injury rather than prevent it because it doesn’t fit over the strong parts of the child’s body. If the shoulder strap touches the neck or abdomen — as it often does with seat-belted younger children — the likelihood of serious injury from a collision increases. A booster seat raises and positions the child so the lap and shoulder belts fit properly over the stronger parts of a child’s body. “The seatbelt cannot be one size fits all,” Rengers said. “The belt that fits a 6-foot-2-inch, 220-pound man doesn’t fit a 52-inch-tall child.” Kentucky state law is more lax than the AAP’s recommendations, requiring children 40 to 50 inches tall and younger than 7 years old use a booster seat. Advocates of more stringent booster seat laws that match national guidelines have been pushing for tougher laws — and are planning to continue pushing. Approximately 25 states, including Indiana and Tennessee, have implemented stricter booster seat laws. “A bill was introduced last year in the Kentucky legislature, but failed to pass,” Rengers said. “If another bill is introduced in January 2014, we will support it and encourage parents to contact their legislators and ask them to protect Kentucky’s children. A new law will decrease the number of severe injuries.” –Stephanie Doyle Now through Nov. 23 SEPTEMBER 21 OCTOBER 6 Win a house. Help a child.

This is the first phase of a $70 million renovation project that will improve the hospital’s neonatal and pediatric intensive care units, upgrade pediatric cardiac surgery operating rooms, revamp the main entrance and improve mobility around the hospital. Some high-profile guests helped more than 600 students at Greathouse/ Shryock Traditional Elementary School celebrate the completion of a successful service learning project that raised more than $53,000 for Kosair Children’s Hospital. In attendance was Jefferson County Public Schools Superintendent Donna Hargens, Sen. Morgan McGarvey, Bellarmine University men’s basketball coach Scott Davenport, Olympic swimmer Caroline Burckle and Olympic silver medalist in judo Grandmaster Jung Oh Hwang. During the school’s four years of participation in the Children’s Hospital Foundation’s Kids for Kids program, the students have raised more than $165,000. Funds raised from this year’s project will go toward the Wendy L. Novak Diabetes Care Center and the neonatal intensive care unit through the Piggies for Preemies Program, sponsored by BB&T. This year’s fundraising amount was the highest yet and put the school at the top of the Jefferson County Public Schools system for overall charitable fundraising for the 2012-2013 school year.
