<h3>BACKGROUND:</h3> Our objective was to evaluate the feasibility, quality of synchronization, and influence on respiratory parameters noninvasive neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NIV-NAVA) mode in infants after cardiac bypass surgery. We conducted a prospective, randomized cross-over study undergoing ventilation (NIV) <h3>METHODS:</h3> Subjects were 10 < 5 kg. After extubation, subjects underwent 2 consecutive modes randomization into groups. In CPAP first group, ventilated nasal...
ABSTRACT Background The concept of failure to rescue (FTR) has been used evaluate the quality care in several surgical specialties but not well‐studied after living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) children. Methods This study retrospectively reviewed 500 pediatric LDLT performed at a single center between 1993 and 2022. recipient outcomes were assessed by means patient graft survival rates, retransplantation arterial/portal/biliary complication rates. Graft losses secondary these...
Abstract Torsades de Pointes is an extremely rare arrhythmia in children associated to LQT syndrome. Pheochromocytomas are also tumours the paediatric age. We present a case of young patient with acquired long QT syndrome complicating as first clinical manifestation pheochromocytoma.
Aortic coarctation is among the most common cardiovascular congenital abnormalities requiring repair after birth. Besides mortality, morbidity remains an important aspect. Accordingly, we reviewed our 20-year experience of aortic by thoracotomy, with emphasis on both short- and long-term outcomes.From 1995 through 2014, 214 patients underwent via left thoracotomy. Associated arch lesions were distal hypoplasia (n = 117) or type A interrupted 6). Eighty-four had isolated (group 1), 66...
Abstract Background One of the challenges when caring for children admitted acute liver failure (ALF) is to quickly identify those who will improve spontaneously and whom transplantation (LT) only therapeutic option. Methods Retrospective study review our experience, mortality risk factors update LT criteria in case paediatric ALF. Results 111 were between March 1989 May 2021 (mean age 59.1 months). 28 never met criteria; 17 had contraindication LT; 66 registered on waitlist. 14 these...
<b>Background:</b> Most outcome studies in congenital cardiac surgery for “low weight” neonates include patients undergoing without cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). The primary objective of our study was to identify risk factors in-hospital mortality weighing less than 3 Kg and with CPB. In addition, we compared the effect early CPB (before 37W-gestational age (GA)) heart disease delayed until a corrected GA 37 weeks an attempt promote weight gain. <b>Methods:</b> Retrospective single-center...
Introduction: Recent research in the areas of simulation and virtualization have encouraged us, permits to refine our approach framework chest physiotherapy for newborn infants.The Multidisciplinary Team original as we incorporated brings together researchers applied mathematics, physics, biomechanics, mechatronics, fluid mechanics, respiratory physiology physiotherapists.Here develop used design simulator, theoretical elements which support.Patients Methods: This study is based on three...
Les enfants admis en réanimation bénéficient essentiellement de traitements kinésithérapie respiratoire (KR) et/ou postures. La mobilisation n’apparaît pas être une priorité chez les instables: 9,5 % d’entre eux sont mobilisés précocement et 26 plus tardivement si la séance KR prévaut sur mobilisation. facteurs prédictifs d’une précoce l’âge des patients, défaillance multiviscérale, présence ventilation mécanique ou sédation, l’administration vasopresseurs bloquants neuromusculaires...
<b>Objective:</b> Despite increasing enthusiasm for neonatal repair, patients with ductal-dependent circulation (pulmonary/systemic) or restrictive pulmonary blood flow still require initial palliation. Ductal stenting has emerged as an endovascular approach whereas modified-Blalock-Taussig and central shunt remain surgical references. In this study, we analyzed the relationship between artery growth, sites of connection, antegrade in surgically placed shunts. The need secondary...
