Objective: To describe mean arterial blood pressure (MABP), responsiveness to dopamine, and relationship brain injury in infants with moderate/severe hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) undergoing therapeutic hypothermia (TH). We hypothesized that, when utilized, dopamine would rapidly effectively increase MABP treated patients. Methods: Continuous measurements were prospectively recorded from HIE TH a multi-institutional cohort 2010 2018. Treatment was at the discretion of medical team...
Objective Severe intraventricular hemorrhage (sIVH, grades 3 and 4) is a serious complication for very low birth weight (VLBW) infants often clinically silent requiring screening cranial ultrasound (cUS) detection. Abnormal vital sign (VS) patterns might serve as biomarkers to identify risk or occurrence of sIVH. Study Design This retrospective study was conducted in VLBW admitted two level-IV neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) between January 2009 December 2018. Inclusion criteria were:...
Background: Globally, women and their unborn babies continue to die from preventable causes. This study aims highlight the causes of maternal perinatal deaths bring fore areas that need be improved in order improve health indices Gombe State. Methodology: Information for this report was obtained Maternal Perinatal Deaths Surveillance Response (MPDSR) desk officers chairmen across MPDSR supported facilities state. Secondary data abstraction registers conducted using an electronic...
Cutaneous mucormycosis is a rare, often fatal fungal infection that most commonly affects patients with underlying immunosuppression but also can occur in premature neonates. We report the case of an extremely boy (<25 weeks) who developed primary cutaneous shortly after birth. Although surgical debridement has been mainstay treatment combination antifungal therapy, our patient was successfully treated amphotericin B alone-the management only reported three other cases to date. present this...
Objective This study aimed to evaluate the role of an objective physiologic biomarker, arterial blood pressure variability, for early identification adverse short-term electroencephalogram (EEG) outcomes in infants with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). Study Design In this multicenter observational study, we analyzed meeting these criteria: (1) neonatal determined by modified Sarnat exam, (2) continuous mean (MABP) data between 18 and 27 hours after birth, (3) EEG performed at least 48...
African animal trypanosomiasis is one of the most important protozoal diseases affecting health and production. This study was conducted to assess phytochemical composition Phyllanthus amarus ethanol extract its safety efficacy on Trypanosoma brucei-induced pathology in Wistar rats. The plant sample obtained from around residential area Ahmadu Bello University, main campus, Zaria, Nigeria, subjected screening following standard procedures. Sixteen rats were divided into five groups, each rat...
Abstract Decreased post-operative cerebral region oxygenation saturation (crSO 2 ) variability, a surrogate for autoregulation, correlates with poor neurodevelopmental outcomes in neonates who undergo cardiac surgery. The goal of this study is to investigate the relationship between pre- and crSO variability requiring neonatal surgery congenital heart disease (CHD). averaged 1-min values was calculated minimum 12h before first 48h following cardiopulmonary by-pass November 2019 May 2021....
A heart rate characteristics index (HeRO score), incorporating low variability and superimposed decelerations, was developed as a sepsis risk indicator for preterm infants in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). rise score should prompt consideration of other clinical changes that may be signs to decide whether workup antibiotics are needed. We aimed develop framework systematically consider potentially indicating very birth weight (VLBW) infants.
