Twenty-four-hour electrocardiograms were recorded in the first 10 days of life on 134 healthy full-term infants with birthweights greater than 2.5 kg. The highest heart rate a minute, measured over nine beats, was 175 +/- 19 (SD). lowest rates, three, five, and beats 82 12, 87 93 respectively. At their rates 109 had sinus bradycardia 25 junctional escape rhythms. Thirty-three showed changes P wave configuration or without pronounced variation PR interval. Atrial premature present but only...
A system for simultaneous 24-hour tape recording of ECG and respiration has been developed used in the study 4 groups newborn infants. In 50 randomly selected, healthy term infants, mean lowest heart rate (>9 beats9 duration; was 88 ± 13. 14 (28%) infants had junctional escape rhythms, 5 supraventricular, 2 ventricular premature beats. 34 (68%) subjects apnoeic episodes ≥10 seconds9 95th centile maximum duration apnoea 18 seconds, longest episode being 28 seconds. Episodes bradycardia...
Abstract Background Morel-Lavallee lesions (MLLs) are rare internal degloving injuries typically caused by blunt traumatic and most commonly occur around the hips in association with pelvic or acetabular fractures. MLL is often overlooked setting of poly-trauma; therefore, clinicians must maintain a high degree suspicion be familiar management such injuries, especially obese poly-trauma patients. Case presentation We present 30-year-old female pedestrian struck motor vehicle who sustained...
Hypertrophic granulation and unstable scar (HG/US) is a common complication in post-burn wounds. Treatments include topical silver nitrate, hypertonic saline, fulguration, excision. Treatment with steroids has been described; however, no standardized protocols exist, safety efficacy have not rigorously evaluated. We present case series which HG/US was successfully treated corticosteroids. performed retrospective chart review of patients for HG/US. Patient demographics, length treatment,...
Keloids, a source of physical discomfort and aesthetic concern, frequently occur spontaneously, although genetic predisposition, chronic inflammation trauma can promote keloid development. Patients with keloids report hypersensitivity neuropathic pain which poorly responds to therapy. Current treatment options include surgical excision, silicone compression, radiation, intralesional steroid 5-FU injections. Despite the number modalities, most recur. A retrospective, single center review 7...
Most friction burns are appreciated in primary trauma surveys but then neglected and overshadowed by more severe injuries. Morel-Lavallee Lesions (MLL) rare internal degloving injuries caused blunt which most commonly occur around the hips association with pelvic or acetabular fractures. Clinicians must be familiar management of MLL have an especially high degree clinical suspicion when treating deep dermal abrasions obese polytrauma patients. We performed a retrospective chart review...
Burn injury, subsequent wound care and surgery cause significant pain. Management often requires opioids, potentially complicated by concomitant substance abuse mental health issues. Inconsistent pain management is a common by-product. It results in challenges weaning patients from opioids. We undertook Quality Improvement project, with the initial goal to decrease discharge opioid doses through improvements inpatient workflow. Adult, Non-ICU, naïve burn treated conservatively or single...
