Description
An account of the resource
Objectives: Pediatric esophageal button battery (BB) injury occurs rapidly and continues to be a significant source of morbidity and mortality. Unfortunately, a BB that no longer supplies power to a device can still have enough residual voltage to cause injury within the body. Development of additional prevention strategies for consumers may reduce esophageal injury risk.
Methods: In this study, 24 commercially available button batteries (BBs) were horizontally and vertically wrapped (2 layers, full circumferential coverage, 90° apart) with 6 different types of common household tapes (Scotch®/clear, Scotch®/Magic, masking tape, packing tape/clear, packing tape/brown, black electrical tape) and left at room temperature for 30 days. In addition, 6 of the CR2032 batteries covered with each type of tape were placed in a cadaveric piglet esophageal model for a 4-h period and then compared to controls without tape for tissue pH changes and visible tissue injury.
Results: None of the tape-wrapped batteries showed voltage changes nor presented any hazard stemming from BB ingestion. All 6 tape covered batteries placed in the cadaveric piglet esophageal tissue model demonstrated no visible tissue injury and no change in tissue pH in contrast to the controls. Review of BB packaging language from various brands of commercially available CR2032 batteries showed that none had specific disposal recommendations.
Conclusion: Both BB and electronics manufacturers should consider instructing the use of common household tape options to cover these BB immediately after removal from a device for either recycling or disposal. Such precautions may help to reduce related ingestion injuries in children.

Description
An account of the resource
Objective: Because reduction of psychotic symptoms in schizophrenia does not result in adequate community functioning, efforts have shifted to other areas, such as cognitive impairment. The U. S. Food and Drug Administration requires that drugs for cognition enhancement in schizophrenia show improvement on two distinct outcome measures in clinical trials: an accepted cognitive performance battery and a functionally meaningful coprimary measure. The authors examined the reliability, validity, and practicality of functionally meaningful measures. Method: In this four-site validation study, schizophrenia patients were assessed at baseline (N= 166) and 4 weeks later (N= 144) on performance-based (Independent Living Scales, Test of Adaptive Behavior in Schizophrenia [TABS], and UCSD Performance-based Skills Assessment [UPSA]) and interview-based (Cognitive Assessment Interview and Clinical Global Impression Scale for Cognition) candidate coprimary measures. In addition, cognitive performance, community functioning, and clinical symptoms were assessed. Both full and short forms of the performance-based measures were evaluated. Results: All measures were well tolerated by patients, had adequate test-retest reliability, and showed good utility as a repeated measure. Measures differed in their correlation with cognitive performance, with performance-based measures having stronger correlations than interview-based measures. None of the measures had notable floor or ceiling effects or missing data. Conclusions: Among the full-form measures, the UPSA was judged to have the strongest overall properties. Among the short forms, the TABS and UPSA appeared to have the strongest features. Use of the short forms saves time, but at the cost of lower test-retest reliability and weaker correlations with cognitive performance.
