There is a lack of evidence regarding factors associated with failure tracheostomy decannulation.We aimed to identify characteristics pediatric patients who fail decannulation challenge Methods: A retrospective review was performed on all had at tertiary care center from June 2006 October 2013. Tracheostomy defined as reinsertion the tube within 6 months challenge. Data demographics, indications for tracheostomy, home mechanical ventilation, and comorbidities were collected. also collected...
Alertness is a necessity for well-being and performance, sleepiness associated with cognitive functional impairments that can have negative impact on health, mood, safety, quality of life. In severe cases, lead to debilitation, injury, or death. Sleepiness marker insufficient sleep the major patient-reported symptom disorders wakefulness such as narcolepsy obstructive apnea. Excessive - inability stay awake alert during waking episodes day reported by one-third U.S. adults. It position...
A recent multinational clinical trial in preterm infants has demonstrated pulmonary and neurodevelopmental benefits from caffeine therapy. Indications for use that study were predominantly treatment of apnea facilitation extubation rather than prophylaxis. There are no studies describe current practice neonatologists regional differences regards to indications starting, monitoring discontinuing methylxanthine therapy premature infants.To characterize the spectrum demonstrate extent which...
Neurocognitive deficits have been shown in school-aged children with sleep apnea. The effect of obstructive apnea (OSA) on the neurodevelopmental outcome preterm infants is unknown.
Since the publication of its 2020 position statement on artificial intelligence (AI) in sleep medicine by American Academy Sleep Medicine, there has been a tremendous expansion AI-related software and hardware options for clinicians. To help clinicians understand current state AI medicine, to further enable these solutions be adopted into clinical practice, discussion panel was conducted June 7, 2022, at Associated Professional Societies Conference Charlotte, North Carolina. The article is...
Introduction There is a high prevalence of sleep disturbances and disorders such as obstructive apnea (OSA) in children with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), though this relationship remains poorly characterized by objective measures. Polysomnographic studies (PSGs) on disruptions ADHD have yielded inconsistent results. Few studied polysomnograms stimulant-medicated vs. non-medicated ADHD+/-OSA. This study aimed to elucidate pathognomonic polysomnographic diagnosed Methods...
Growth in HIV-infected children generally improves with antiretroviral therapy (ART). Little is known about the effect of pre-existing malnutrition on response to treatment.To evaluate prospectively growth commenced ART compared those without malnutrition.Inclusion criteria were (2 months 8.5 years) who ART. Exclusion pre-treatment ART, virological non-responders and co-existing tuberculous infection. Weight-for-age (WAZ) height-for-age Z scores (HAZ) < or =-2 at initiation treatment for...
Juvenile primary fibromyalgia syndrome (JPFS) is a chronic condition characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain and discrete tender points with no objective evidence of muscle disease but disordered central processing. Very little known about the prevalence treatment on inpatient psychiatric units.The purpose this study was to determine effect an intervention for JPFS in adolescent females admitted hospital.In total, 30 patients were assigned either (n = 15) or control group 15). The...
Antenatal corticosteroids (ACS) administration to pregnant women for threatened preterm labor is standard obstetric care reduce neonatal respiratory distress syndrome and the associated morbidity. While ACS stimulates surfactant production in fetal lung, effects of upon subsequent growth development lung are unclear. Follow-up studies outside period have been primarily limited spirometry, most subjects evaluated were born prematurely. To our knowledge, no study has assessed both airway...
We describe an immunocompetent child with cat scratch disease and pulmonary nodules as part of her initial presentation. Although manifestations have been reported disease, are rare in the normal host.
Objectives: This study describes the un-sedated endoscopic airway findings in infants with obstructive sleep apnea confirmed by polysomnography (PSG). Methods: A retrospective chart review was performed on who had undergone both a documented endoscopy and PSG from 2006 to 2015 at our center. Demographics, comorbidities, of were extracted electronic medical record. Regression analyses determine relationship between AHI, gestational age. Results: We identified 39 patients room air (Apnea...
