?Making History in Honduras ? World Pediatrics and its partners recently completed the first pediatric orthopedic traveling team for children with Osteogenesis Imperfecta in Honduras. ???? Led by Dr. Glen Baird from Shriners Children's Hospital in Spokane, the traveling and local surgical team included Dr. Alma Iris Castillo and Dr. Gerardo Napky. With support from Tawani Foundation and OrthoPediatrics, represented on-site by Francis Boudreau-Audet, surgeries took place at Hospital Materno Infantil in Tegucigalpa. Twelve patients were evaluated, and seven underwent surgery—strengthening Honduras’ role as a regional leader in advanced pediatric orthopedic care for children with brittle bone disease. Another step forward in healing more children, in less time, with greater impact!

Butterfly Ultrasound - Advancing Pediatric Care in Belize Access to advanced healthcare starts with the right tools. At World Pediatrics, we are committed to moving from best-practice to next-practice—leveraging innovation to transform access to pediatric healthcare. Thanks to our partnership with?Butterfly Network, Inc. ,?our traveling teams in Belize are now using portable ultrasound technology to bring life-changing diagnostics closer to children who need it most. During a recent trip, this device made an immediate impact. Daniel, pictured below, had endured months of bloody drainage from an old surgical site. With the help of?Drs. Sulkowski and Castello, and a quick examination using the?Butterfly iQ3, the cause—a benign suture granuloma—was identified. Daniel’s condition was treated with a straightforward procedure, and within a week, he was back to being an active, happy kid, bringing peace of mind to his parents. By working?shoulder-to-shoulder?with partners like?Butterfly Network, Inc., we’re ensuring that more children receive timely, advanced care—no matter where they live.
