UH Rainbow is a pioneer in the treatment of diabetes, and the Division of Pediatric Endocrinology has been instrumental in conducting groundbreaking research to improve care and outcomes for kids. Most recently, pediatric endocrinologists Drs. Sarah MacLeish and Jamie Wood led the UH Rainbow site for a pivotal clinical trial testing the safety and efficacy of Insulet’s Omnipod Horizon, an automated insulin delivery (AID) system that uses continuous glucose monitor (CGM) readings to automatically adjust background insulin delivery in patients with Type 1 diabetes. The results from this study will soon be submitted to the FDA to support approval of Omnipod Horizon, which will be the first AID system using a Dexcom G6 CGM with the tubeless Omnipod insulin pump that can be controlled by an application on a smartphone. UH Rainbow is also a participating site for a new study testing the same device for preschool age children, ages 2-5 years, with Type 1.

The last thing Zaharius remembers is dunking the basketball. The star athlete friends and family call ‘Z’ collapsed in the locker room at the start of halftime. Shaw High School athletic trainer David Silverstein and the head basketball coach, Marvin Rashad, performed CPR until East Cleveland paramedics arrived. Ten minutes later Z’s mom, Nasheema Anderson, watched as UH Rainbow’s Emergency Medicine team worked to save her son’s life. The last time Mrs. Anderson was at UH was 17 years ago, when Z was born. “The staff was absolutely amazing. They were tending to Z, but also to me,” says Mrs. Anderson. “They made a point to keep me informed and provided comfort during the scariest moment of my life. When I entered the pediatric intensive care unit, a doctor greeted me and said, ‘We are going to take good care of your son.’ I hope they know how much that meant to us.” Z suffered a heart attack caused by an anomalous coronary artery, a congenital heart defect. It is the second most common congenital cause of sudden cardiac death among young athletes. Z wears a life vest and takes a beta-blocker medication to help prevent another sudden cardiac arrest. He will undergo open-heart surgery in the near future to correct the defect found on his heart. Katherine Slain, DO, the pediatric intensive care physician who cared for Z in UH Rainbow’s Cardiothoracic Intensive Care Unit, credits the quick action of Z’s teammates, coach and trainer for saving his life. “Prompt recognition of a cardiac arrest, initiation of CPR, and application of an AED are absolutely critical for the survival of such an episode,” says Dr. Slain. Pictured below are Z’s family, friends, and teammates standing outside his hospital room window holding their hands in the shape of a heart. Before their last basketball game, the team wore #Win4Z t-shirts in support of Z and the journey he will travel ahead. Learn more: http://bit.ly/ZahariusStory
