Abstract Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) is an important complication encountered during the course of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). Plasma-Lyte with lower chloride concentration than saline has been shown to be associated reduced incidence AKI in adults septic shock. No study compared this DKA. Methods This double-blind, parallel-arm, investigator-initiated, randomized controlled trial 0.9% Plasma-Lyte-A as initial fluid pediatric The was done a tertiary care, teaching, and referral...
OBJECTIVE--To audit the accuracy and impact on frequency of operation fine needle aspiration cytology isolated thyroid swellings. DESIGN--Prospective analysis over six years cytological predictions compared with histological findings. SETTING--Thyroid clinic serving Grampian region. PATIENTS--395 Consecutive patients presenting an swelling, 307 whom underwent surgical excision. Analysis was confined to a subgroup 283 satisfactory aspirates who were operated on. RESULTS--The positive...
During 1 September 1981 to August 1982 aspiration cytology was carried out in all isolated thyroid swellings referred the Aberdeen Thyroid Clinic: cytological findings were not disclosed, did influence management, and compared retrospectively with histological diagnosis. In a total of 70 sensitivity for detection neoplasia 86% overall accuracy 92%; positive predictive value 80% negative 96%. second year (1 31 1983), when used frequency operation decreased by 25% proportion operations...
Children with scrub typhus may present one or more organ failures. Identifying the predictors of severe disease and need for pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) admission would help clinicians during outbreak seasons.This observational study included 160 children admitted to emergency department (ED) confirmed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) between January 2013 December 2015. Demographic, clinical, laboratory data were collected PICU identified.There was a seasonal trend peak...
Objective: To evaluate serial ferritin levels measured in the initial 72 h of admission as a biomarker for new and progressive multi organ dysfunction syndrome (NPMODS) mortality (unfavorable outcomes) critically ill children with sepsis due to tropical infections. Material Methods: In this prospective observational study from tertiary care teaching hospital India, 3 month 12 years diagnosis acute febrile illness any two features suggesting infections [cytopenia (platelet count...
Abstract Background Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) is a life‐threatening severe cutaneous adverse reaction. Data on pediatric TEN limited. Methods Case records of 44 children, 1 month–12 years with diagnosis (>30% body surface area [%BSA] detachment) admitted to tertiary intensive care unit (PICU) between 2009 and 2018 were analyzed retrospectively. The primary outcome was mortality, secondary outcomes organ dysfunction, length stay (LOS), long‐term sequelae. Results Median (IQR) age...
Abstract Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) due to Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA) is rather common. Novel biomarkers diagnose AKI are being increasingly used in different settings. The use of urinary Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin (uNGAL) predicting persistent pediatric DKA cases still not thoroughly investigated. Methods This was a secondary analysis Saline versus Plasma-Lyte (SPinK) trial data; 66 children (> 1 month-12 years) with DKA, defined by the International Society...
Abstract Background Hyperferritinemia is increasingly associated with mortality in sepsis. Studies estimating the prevalence of hyperferritinemia pediatric scrub typhus are limited. Methods This was a secondary analysis prospective observational study (FERRIS) from tertiary care teaching hospital North India where 72 children confirmed typhus, 4 (5.5%) PCR positive, 55 (76.4%)-IgM ELISA and 13 (18.1%)-both were analyzed. Serum ferritin measured 62 to identify determine its association...
We report and discuss a series of 47 consecutive patients with donovanosis that were diagnosed in public health laboratory Western Australia during slightly more than six years. Most came from the tropical northern parts Australia, there was preponderance women series, vulval lesions most common manifestation disease. Two men had extragenital lesions, though each eventually found to have concomitant genital lesions.
Acetaminophen poisoning is one of the common accidental in children. Accidental administration mismatched doses drops for syrups can lead to life-threatening overdose. N-acetylcysteine (NAC) specific antidote; however, extracorporeal therapy such as continuous venovenous hemofiltration (CVVH) be used a rescue measure when there no improvement despite adequate NAC and lifesaving. We reported an 18-month-old male infant patient who presented with acetaminophen following ingestion place syrup...
