Abstract Background: Preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) requiring surfactant therapy have been traditionally receiving by intubation and extubation technique (InSurE), which comprises of tracheal intubation, administration, extubation. However, more recently noninvasive methods like least invasive or minimally reported to be successful. These methods, avoid thus minimize airway trauma barotrauma. The primary aim this randomized trial was compare the need for mechanical...

Objective This study was performed to determine the occurrence of hypoxic hepatitis in full-term neonates after perinatal asphyxia and correlate between rise enzymes severity with Apgar score ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) grading neonates. Method Material prospective case-controlled conducted a tertiary-level hospital India for period 12 months. The group A comprised 70 newborns suffering from birth asphyxia, while 30 healthy were included B (control). All biochemical parameters liver...

To study the role of Doppler imaging in prediction high-risk pregnancies and their outcomes.This prospective a setup tertiary-level care center includes 500 pregnant women from rural urban sectors evaluates predictive values various indices.Out patients, 110 patients had abnormal among them, 70 uterine artery Doppler, 50 umbilical flow indices. In all, 10 both When was (70 patients), 20 preeclampsia, pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH), 25 intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR)....

Klippel-Trénaunay syndrome (KTS or KT) is an infrequently seen dermatological syndrome, which often viewed as a triad of vascular malformation (capillary malformations port-wine brands), venous varicosity, and soft tissue and/or bony hypertrophy. We report case 12-year-old male who presented to us with the symptoms varicose plaques over both lower limbs was diagnosed KTS. Management normally conservative includes stockings for compression branches reduce edema because chronic insufficiency;...

Perinatal asphyxia is a common neonatal problem and contributes significantly to morbidity mortality. This study was designed determine whether theophylline could prevent or ameliorate renal dysfunction in term neonates with perinatal asphyxia.We randomised 159 severely asphyxiated newborns receive single dose of 5 mg/kg intravenous (n = 78) placebo 81) during the first hour life. The infant's 24-hour fluid intake, urine volume, serum creatinine, creatinine clearance sodium excretion were...

Nasal continuous positive airway pressure (NCPAP) as a primary respiratory therapy in meconium aspiration syndrome (MAS) has not been studied extensively. pressure, when applied newborns with MAS, may resolve atelectasis by sufficiently expanding partially obstructed small airways and stabilizing the collapsing terminal to enhance oxygen exchange.To compare NCPAP vs standard care neonates moderate severe failure due MAS reducing need for invasive ventilation.This multicenter open-label,...

Study objective: Bacteriologic profile and risk factors for ESBL sepsis in newborns admitted to a Level III NICU.Methods: This was retrospective observational study that enrolled NICU with perinatal or clinical signs of positive blood culture from January 2013 August 2014. Blood cultures were done by BACTEC production evaluated double-disc synergy method. Maternal, neonatal recorded the case records computerized information base. Mothers received cephalosporins PPROM but its use restricted...

To screen the newborn by Transient evoked Otoacoustic emission and to assess incidence of hearing damage associated risk factors. This longitudinal prospective observational study was conducted at a tertiary care hospital in India. A total 415 babies were included study. All newborns evaluated with (TEOAE) which done age 1–3 days. Auditory brain stem response audiometry (AABR) performed three months for confirming loss neonates those who failed TEOAE screening. For infants proven have...

Thrombocytopenia is a common condition in neonates. Neonatal thrombocytopenia can cause serious complications such as intraventricular hemorrhage. Papaya leaf extract may be safe and effective therapy persistent refractory neonatal thrombocytopenia. was for improving platelet count our baby with However, no previous evidence of its use neonates, still experimental should only considered cases after team meeting detailed discussion family.

Ectrodactyly, ectodermal dysplasia, and cleft lip/palate syndrome (EEC) is a rare genetic disorder with an incidence of around 1 in 90,000 population. It known various names including split hand-split foot-ectodermal dysplasia-cleft or hand, lobster claw hand/foot. We report first case EEC associated heart disease (Tetralogy Fallot) who was diagnosed as on the basis clinical features confirmed analysis.

Aims and objective: To determine normal blood pressure in apparently healthy, asymptomatic school children the age group of 6 – 16yrs to correlation values with different sex, weight, height Body mass index (BMI) also find out prevalence hypertension going population. Material method: This prospective, observational study enrolled 3302 urban (1,658boys 1,644 girls) 6-16 years .These were analysed distribution pattern systolic (SBP) diastolic (DBP) at ages, BMI. The BP noted as per sex....
