To support clinical decision-making in central neurological disorders, a physical examination is used to assess responses passive muscle stretch. However, what exactly being assessed expressed and interpreted different ways. A clear diagnostic framework lacking. Therefore, the aim was arrive at unambiguous terminology about concepts measurement around pathophysiological neuromuscular response stretch.During two consensus meetings, 37 experts from 12 European countries filled online...
Cerebral Palsy (CP) is a disorder of posture and movement due to defect in the immature brain. The use robotic devices as alternative treatment improve gait function patients with CP has increased. Nevertheless, current trainers are focused on controlling complete joint trajectories, avoiding postural control adaptation therapy specific patient. This paper presents applicability new platform called CPWalker children spastic diplegia. consists smart walker body weight autonomous locomotion...
The use of robotic trainers has increased with the aim improving gait function in patients limitations. Nevertheless, there is an absence studies that deeply describe detailed guidelines how to correctly implement robot-based treatments for rehabilitation. This contribution proposes accurate training program rehabilitation pediatric population Cerebral Palsy (CP).The focused on achievement some specifications defined by International Classification Functioning, Disability and Health...
When pertussis is associated with hyperleukocytosis, mortality approaches to 80%. Immature leukocytes have been identified in pulmonary arterioles, small arteries and venules. Techniques aimed at reducing leukocyte mass might improve the prognosis of these patients. We report our experience 3 patients whom a leukoreduction was performed context severe hyperleukocytosis.
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is the leading cause of mortality and morbidity in paediatric patients after first year life. The aim this study was to evaluate effects locally administered allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells (MSC), acute period a TBI.MSC were isolated from peritoneal fat healthy rats, expanded vitro labelled with green fluorescent protein. Rats placed one three experimental groups: (1) CONTROL: TBI, (2) IP-CONTROL: TBI + local saline (3) IP-Treat: 2 × 10(5) MSC 24 hours...
Cerebral Palsy (CP) is a disorder of posture and movement due to an imperfection or lesion in the immature brain. CP often associated sensory deficits, cognition impairments, communication motor disabilities, behaviour issues, seizure disorder, pain secondary musculoskeletal problems. New strategies are needed help promote, maintain, rehabilitate functional capacity, thereby diminish dedication assistance required economical demands that this condition represents for patient, caregivers...
We retrospectively analyzed posttransplantation events in 299 children who underwent hematopoietic stem cell transplantation between 2005 and 2011 order to ascertain the incidence of life-threatening complications requiring pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) admission, contributing risk factors, patient's long-term survival. Sixty-eight patients (23%) were admitted PICU. Risks factors associated with higher cumulative PICU admission on univariate analysis nonmalignant disease, status at...
Respiratory failure (RF) is a main cause of pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) admission in children with hemato-oncological diseases. We present retrospective chart review admitted to our PICU because RF (January 2006 December 2010). The aims this study are the following: (1) describe demographical and clinical characteristics respiratory management these children; (2) identify factors associated mechanical ventilation (MV) mortality. A total 69 patients, encompassing 88 episodes, were...
Abstract Funding Acknowledgements None. Introduction Acute aortic syndrome (AAS) embraces a spectrum of pathologies with relatively low prevalence but associated high mortality. The clinical presentation AAS is highly variable and the differential diagnosis other much more common diseases such as myocardial infarction (AMI) or pulmonary embolism (PE) often difficult to achieve. detection requires index suspicion delay in increased morbidity Purpose aim this study characterize diagnostic...

Nevertheless, there is an absence studies that deeply describe detailed guidelines how to correctly implement robot-based treatments for rehabilitation. This contribution proposes accurate training program rehabilitation pediatric population Cerebral Palsy (CP). METHODS focused on achievement some specifications defined by International Classification Functioning,...
Existen diversas evidencias que indican los déficits motores en pacientes de parálisis cerebral se asocian con problemas la planificación motora que, a su vez, apuntan una mermada capacidad para imaginar movimientos. La imaginación ha revelado como herramienta efectiva el aprendizaje y adquisición habilidades motoras ya comparte estructuras neuronales similares ejecución motora. En este trabajo presenta un paradigma basado juego realidad virtual guiar actividad mental del paciente sirve dos...
La rabdomiólisis es una enfermedad poco frecuente en pediatría. El objetivo presentar un paciente el que se desarrolló secundario a deshidratación hipernatrémica grave tras diarrea aguda. Lactante de 11 meses consultó por fiebre, vómitos, y anuria. Presentó convulsión tónico-clónica autolimitada. Ingresó mal estado general, severamente deshidratado, con escasa reactividad. En las pruebas complementarias destacó acidosis metabólica grave, hipernatremia e insuficiencia renal prerrenal. Al...
The aim of this study was to describe the complications experienced by patients after central nervous system tumor resection during pediatric intensive care Unit (PICU) admission. Our attempt assess association between epidemiological, clinical data and characteristics prior surgery presence postoperative complications.We design an observational, descriptive retrospective review medical records. Patients aged 0-18 years, admitted PICU our hospital, for in system.We collected a total 145...
Abstract Funding Acknowledgements None. Introduction Type A acute aortic syndrome (AAS-A) is associated with a high mortality. Emergent surgery the treatment of choice for patients AAS-A. However, this highly complex procedure significant morbidity. There are uncertainties about best strategy elderly patients, which pose challenge in clinical practice. Purpose The aim study to evaluate prognosis AAS-A and analyse impact outcome patient population. Methods Patients were prospectively...
Abstract Funding Acknowledgements None. Introduction Type A Acute aortic syndrome (AAS) is a life-threatening disease. Although emergent surgery the treatment of choice, these procedures are highly complex and require high level expertise. Process reengineering has demonstrated prognostic benefit in acute cardiovascular pathology. Purpose The aim present work to assess whether reorganization AAS care an impact on patient prognosis. Methods "Aorta Code" (AC) protocol for AAS-patients’ within...
