Objectives To investigate national and regional variations in pediatric tracheostomy rates, epidemiology, outcomes from 2000 to 2012. Study Design Retrospective cohort analysis. Setting Previous research with the 1997 edition of Kids’ Inpatient Database (KID), a database hospital discharge data, demonstrated that rates vary among US geographic regions. The KID has since been released an additional 5 times, increasing size successive editions. Subjects Methods Patients ≤18 years old procedure...
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) has both genetic and environmental factors in its etiology. The risk for many disorders is increased by consanguinity, but it not known whether increases the ASD. Our study from large population India concludes that consanguinity ASD with an odds ratio of 3.22. Res 2015, 8: 224–228 . © 2014 International Society Research, Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neuro developmental disorder, reported to be on rise in the past two decades. Thyroid hormone-T3 plays an important role early embryonic and central nervous system development. T3 mediates its function by binding thyroid hormone receptors, TRα TRβ. Alterations levels receptor mutations have been earlier implicated neuropsychiatric disorders linked environmental toxins. Limited reports from studies shown effectiveness of treatment with promising results...
Assess the outcome of Intravenous (IV) dexamethasone in treatment pediatric deep neck space infections (DNSI) combination with IV antibiotics.Retrospective chart review patients admitted for a DNSI from March 2014 to June 2016. Patient characteristics including demographics, abscess type, antibiotic, dexamethasone, surgery, culture, and length stay (LOS) were obtained. Patients treated antibiotics alone versus compared. Primary measures rate surgical drainage LOS.Overall 153 identified, 62...
Physicians have high rates of burnout with an Otolaryngology rate 42%. The most studied correlation is increased work hours. More recently, mindfulness training programs been shown to decrease and increase self-compassion. Regarding studies specific residents, there few in the past decade. This study explores correlations between procedure involvement, non-clinical responsibilities practices along gathering updated hours data.A single survey question was be a reliable substitute for Maslach...
Patients undergoing adenotonsillectomy (T&A) for severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are usually admitted observation, and many surgeons use the intensive care unit (ICU) observation due to risk of postsurgical airway obstruction. Given limited resources pediatric ICU (PICU), there is a push better define patients who require postoperative monitoring in PICU OSA.Forty-five were evaluated. had cardiac or craniofacial comorbidities excluded. T&A OSA monitored postanesthesia (PACU)...
Objectives/Hypothesis Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and sickle cell disease (SCD) represent two complex processes. Current guidelines recommend that children with SCD receive polysomnography (PSG) after presenting signs or symptoms of sleep‐disordered breathing (SDB). Recent studies suggest a disproportionately elevated prevalence SDB in the population SCD, traditional risk factors may not be evident within these patients. Further objective testing might needed to screen all pediatric...
Objective The purpose of this study is to examine differences in therapy usage and outcomes between responder (R) nonresponder (NR) groups an international, multicenter prospective registry patients undergoing hypoglossal nerve stimulation for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Study Design Database analysis (level III). Setting International, registry. Methods studied prospectively collects data pre‐ postimplantation, including parameters, Epworth score, patient experience, safety questions,...
Standards for treatment of laryngeal clefts remain poorly defined. There are no large case series that report the efficacy injection laryngoplasty (IL) in pediatric Type 1 (LC-1). The objective this study is to measure effect IL young children with LC-1.A retrospective 130 patients was completed over 3 years at a single institution included aged month 8 years, diagnosed aspiration and penetration issues during swallowing based on Videofluoroscopic Swallow Study (VFSS). Patients underwent...
Ayurvedic herbal medicines are administered as part of disease management for many neurodevelopmental disorders like Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and linked comorbid challenges. The biochemistry the behavioral abnormalities observed in conditions is already reported to involve neurotransmitters gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), serotonin (5-HT) dopamine (DA). aim our study evaluate effect ayurvedic on neurotransmitter levels IMR 32. Such a will give some insight into molecular mechanism...
Objectives/Hypothesis For patients with submandibular sialolithiasis, there are many gland‐preserving treatment options including sialendoscopy. Sialendoscopy, however, requires expensive instrumentation limited availability, which may not be required for routine cases. The objective of this study is to compare the outcomes sialolithiasis undergoing sialendoscopy versus those transoral incisional sialithotomy. Study Design Longitudinal, prospective patient therapy sialolithiasis. Methods was...
Objectives: Sinonasal malignancies are a rare and biologically diverse group of tumors which comprise less than 5% all head neck cancers. Differences in patient demographics, health insurance status, access to healthcare resources known affect survival across the spectrum malignancies, but adequately powered studies historically rely on national database queries due rarity lesions. Understanding availability impact community patient's diagnosis is thus quite difficult, especially large,...
