Renal and urologic problems in pediatric condition falsification (PCF) or Munchausen by proxy (MSP) can result serious diagnostic dilemma. Symptoms of hematuria, pyuria recurrent urinary tract infections have occasionally been described. However, MSP presenting as azotemia has not previously reported. We describe the case an unfortunate boy who had to undergo unnecessary hemodialysis for persistent hyperkalemia before a final diagnosis investigations parents was made.
Diarrhoea and pneumonia account for most deaths in children aged < 5 years. However, diarrhoeal are preventable with appropriate hygienic measures timely initiation of rehydration therapy. A cross-sectional study was conducted on 280 mothers 2–59 months acute watery diarrhoea at a tertiary hospital. One-fifth respondents were illiterate only one-third pre-treated water to make it drinkable. Mean knowledge scores hand washing, prevention complications poor, though higher educated ( P...
Abstract Pneumocystis jirovecii (previously known as carinii), a yeast-like, atypical fungus, is an important human pathogen especially in the immunocompromised hosts. It primarily causes pneumonia (P. or PJP), but rarely can infect other extrapulmonary sites, such lymph nodes, spleen, liver, and bone marrow. Though early age of colonization/infection has been documented even healthy children, children with immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, those immunosuppression secondary to...
To compare the efficacy and safety of low dose insulin infusion (0.05 U/kg/h) against standard (0.1 in children with diabetic ketoacidosis.Children (age <12 years, n = 30) presenting ketoacidosis were enrolled randomised to receive either as 0.05 U/kg/h (low dose) or 0.1 (standard an open labelled controlled trial. The rest management was identical both groups. time taken for resolution acidosis (pH ≥7.3 HCO3 ≥15) primary outcome variable. secondary variables included until a decline blood...
Background: Tubnerculosis is Characterised by the presence of granuloma formation. The mode spread pulmonary tuberculosis via airborne aerosol. This bacteria enters lungs and leads to latent infection in susceptible hosts. Diagnosis mostly presumptive ocular tuberculosis. There lack uniform diagnostic criteria. Despite vast developments tools, evidence systemic disease along with suggestive clinical findings considered major criterion for Aim: study aims evaluate diagnosed cases...
Background: Umbilical vein catheterization is a routine procedure in neonatal intensive care units. This invasive procedure, though easy and useful, can result disastrous complications. Clinical Description: A 28 day old baby boy presented with umbilical sepsis along multiple skin abscesses. He had history of double volume exchange transfusion for Glucose 6 Phosphate deficiency induced hyperbilirubinemia, during the postnatal period. Ultrasound whole abdomen done to look intra-abdominal...
Abstract Background COVID-19 has indirectly led to excess deaths attributable other illnesses. Pre-pandemic studies in India have shown mortality rates of 3-12% amongst young children hospitalized with suspected pneumonia. Here, we describe among pneumonia during the pandemic. Methods Children aged 1-35 months were enrolled prospectively across six sites India. Demographic and clinical information obtained, followed until 90 days after hospital discharge. Results Between October 2020...
Aim: This study aims to the various ocular and systemic manifestations in children with developmental delay (DD) its association development quotient. Materials Methods: A total of 192 between age group 1–5 years DD were enrolled at a pediatric care tertiary teaching hospital. All these underwent detailed examination along psychometric quotient calculation. Along this, antenatal postnatal history was also noted. Results: more common males lower socioeconomic class. The most refractive error...
