Improving the quality of hospital antibiotic use is a major goal WHO's global action plan to combat antimicrobial resistance. The WHO Essential Medicines List Access, Watch, and Reserve (AWaRe) classification could facilitate simple stewardship interventions that are widely applicable globally. We aimed present data on patterns paediatric AWaRe be used for local national interventions.1-day point prevalence survey prescription were combined from two independent networks: Global Antimicrobial...
To gain an understanding of the variation in available resources and clinical practices between neonatal units (NNUs) low-income middle-income country (LMIC) setting to inform design observational study on burden unit-level antimicrobial resistance (AMR).A web-based survey using a REDCap database was circulated NNUs participating Neonatal AMR research network. The included questions about NNU funding structure, size, admission rates, access supportive therapies, empirical guidelines period...
Abstract Aim: To study the effect of Kangaroo mother care in ward comparison with conventional at neonatal unit on growth and breastfeeding very low birth weight infants 40 weeks’ corrected gestational age. Methods: One hundred forty neonates <1500 g were randomized. The primary outcome was average gain (g/kg/day) from time randomization to term Results: Mean weight, age days similar both groups. At age, post (23.3 ± 8.7 vs. 22.64 9.1 g, p = 0.67) rate (85.9% 87.0%) comparable. There no...
Securing long-term venous access is an essential part of sick newborn care. The malposition central line tip leads to several complications. There a need for easily available bedside investigating tool diagnose these malpositions. This study was done compare the effectiveness real-time ultrasound (RTUS) with X-ray in identifying peripherally inserted catheter (PICC) tip.This pilot observational conducted level III Neonatal Intensive Care Unit tertiary care hospital India, from June 2012...
While there have been studies in adults reporting discordant empiric antibiotic treatment associated with poor outcomes, this area is relatively unexplored children and neonates despite evidence of increasing resistance to recommended first-line regimens.Patient characteristics, treatment, microbiology, 30-day all-cause outcome from <18 years blood-culture-confirmed bacterial bloodstream infections (BSI) were collected anonymously using REDCap™ through the Global Antibiotic Prescribing...
<b><i>Background:</i></b> Preterm neonates with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) benefit from early application of nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP). However, it is not clear whether surfactant should be administered as a routine to all such infants or later in selective manner. <b><i>Objective:</i></b> It was the aim this study compare efficacy versus late treatment reducing need for mechanical ventilation (MV) during first...
BackgroundInformation about antimicrobial use is scarce and poorly understood among neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) in India. In this study, we describe eight NICUs using four point prevalence surveys (PPSs).MethodsAs part of the Global Antimicrobial Resistance, Prescribing, Efficacy Neonates Children (GARPEC) one-day, cross-sectional, hospital-based PPSs were conducted times between 1 February 2016 28 2017 NICUs. Using a standardized web-based electronic data entry form, detailed...
Four neonates presented within 24 hours of birth with stridor, respiratory distress and a weak cry. Clinical examination the cardiovascular system revealed no abnormality. The transthoracic echocardiogram showed large aneurysm ductus arteriosus at aortic isthmus, tapering to small tortuous channel site pulmonary artery insertion. Computerized tomography scan performed in two demonstrated considerable compression adjacent thoracic structures. One required surgical excision due persistence...
A newborn baby presented with respiratory distress, cyanosis and shock within 2 hours of birth. The cardiac evaluation showed supracardiac total anomalous pulmonary venous return critically obstructed vertical vein. underwent successful stenting the vein at 12 life.
Objective: To determine the association between postnatal age (PNA) at first administration of systemic steroids (sPNS) for bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) and mortality or significant neurodevelopmental impairment (sNDI) 18−24 months corrected (CA) in infants < 29 weeks’ gestation. Methods: Data from Canadian Neonatal Network Follow-up databases were used to conduct this retrospective cohort study. Infants exposed sPNS BPD after 1st week included categorized into 8 groups based on...
Study Objective . To evaluate the safety of a new protocol in comparison to standard for managing hypoglycemia neonates. Methods Open label RCT-pilot study. Neonates admitted NICU with and requiring intravenous fluids were included. Fifty-seven eligible neonates randomly allocated either intervention group (starting 10% dextrose increments 1.5%) or (GIR 6 mg/kg/min 2 mg/kg/min) till control hypoglycemia. Primary outcome study was know proportion infants subsequent hyperglycemia after...
