Limited data are available on pregnant women with COVID-19 and their neonates. We aimed to evaluate the epidemiological clinical characteristics of newborns born infected COVID-19. A multicenter cohort study was conducted among mothers in 34 neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) Turkey. Pregnant (n = 125) who had a positive RT-PCR test were enrolled. Cesarean section, prematurity, low-birthweight infant rates 71.2%, 26.4%, 12.8%, respectively. Eight 125 (6.4%) admitted an unit for mechanical...
Background: Preeclampsia (PE) is among the causes of serious morbidity and mortality for mother fetus. The most common consequences intrauterine hypoxemia in newborn are growth retardation (IUGR), premature labor, respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH), bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), perinatal death. systemic immune-inflammatory index (SII) prognostic nutritional (PNI), which used as an indicator inflammation, can be to...
We aimed to evaluate the validity and reliability of Infant Breastfeeding Assessment Tool (IBFAT), Mother Baby (MBA) Tool, LATCH scoring system.Mothers who delivered healthy, full-term infants in Obstetrics & Gynecology Service Gazi University, Ankara, Turkey, between December 2013 January 2014 their were included study. Forty-six randomly selected breastfeeding sessions monitored scored simultaneously by three researchers (Raters 1, 2, 3) using LATCH, IBFAT, MBA Tool. Researchers put score...
Bart’s syndrome is characterized by aplasia cutis congenita and epidermolysis bullosa. We present the case of a newborn male who developed blisters on mucous membranes skin following congenital localized absence skin. (BS) diagnosed clinically based disorder’s unique signs symptoms but histologic evaluation can help to confirm final diagnosis. The patient was managed conservatively with topical antibacterial ointment wet gauze dressing. Periodic follow-up examinations showed complete...
Objective: After the earthquake, which was called ‘Disaster of Century’, affected 11 provinces in our country on February 06, 2023 we presented reflection grievances children who were not trapped under rubble a pediatric emergency clinic 700 km away from region. This study aimed to evaluate ‘earthquake victims’ patients, rubble, applied department (PED) tertiary care children’s hospital. Material and Methods: Between 7 22 2023, data first 15 days after earthquake PED hospital evaluated...
<h3>Background</h3> Hypothermia is becoming a common treatment for newborns with hypoxic ischaemic encephalopathy. Cerebral metabolic effects have been studied extensively. However, acute on peripheral microcirculation are unknown. The of therapeutic hypothermia assessed by side-stream dark field (SDF) imaging technique presented. <h3>Methods</h3> Peripheral was in seven undergoing selective head-cooling SDF video recordings during core temperature 34°C, and then after re-warming at 37°C,...
Objective: We examined the morbidities and oxidative stress statuses in preterms receiving either SMOFlipid or ClinOleic.Study design: This observational study was performed Etlik Zubeyde Hanim Hospital, Turkey. Infants received (5 months) ClinOleic (7 months). Two hundred twenty seven infants (SMOFlipid: 93, ClinOleic: 134) very low birth weighted were included. The status evaluated at risk of by total antioxidant capacity (TAC) oxidant (TOS) index (OSI; TAC/TOS/100) baseline, first week...
Newborns are exposed to a considerable number of painful stimuli. This study is aimed investigate the effects 30% glucose solution and nonnutritive sucking on pain perception during venipuncture. Twenty-five term infants were randomized as receiving dextrose (group 1) or sterile water 2). Neonatal Infant Pain Scale scores, skin conductance algesimeter recordings, near-infrared spectroscopy measurements recorded procedure. results decreased in both groups from that venipuncture after Group 1...
Healthcare-acquired infections (HAIs) in the neonatal period cause substantial morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs. Our purpose was to determine prevalence of HAIs, antimicrobial susceptibility causative agents, adaptivity Centres for Disease Control Prevention (CDC) criteria HAI diagnosis.A point survey conducted intensive care units (NICUs) 31 hospitals from different geographic regions Turkey.The Point 7.6%. Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) central line-associated bloodstream...
Preterm ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (POHS) is an uncommon disorder characterized by prematurity, hypogastric and upper leg swelling of various intensities, high serum estradiol gonadotropin levels, follicular cyst/cysts. In this paper, we present the first case POHS presenting with vaginal bleeding. A female infant was born via spontaneous delivery at 25 weeks gestation a birth weight 610 g. At 36 post-conception age, she developed breast enlargement, clitoral hood, labia major minor,...
<h3>BACKGROUND:</h3> Volume-controlled ventilation modes have been shown to reduce duration of mechanical ventilation, incidence chronic lung disease, failure primary mode hypocarbia, severe intraventricular hemorrhage, pneumothorax, and periventricular leukomalacia in preterm infants when compared with pressure limited modes. Volume-guarantee (VG) is the most commonly used for volume-controlled ventilation. Assist control, pressure-support (PSV), synchronized intermittent mandatory (SIMV)...
Background: Nutrition of very low‐birth‐weight newborns is important for a good physical and neurologic outcome. Body composition assessment, together with anthropometric measurements, considered necessary to monitor adequate nutrition growth. Objectives this study were assess body fat changes in ≤32 weeks gestation by weekly skinfold thickness (SFT) measurements compare them those late preterm infants born at 34, 35, 36 once they reached corrected age (CA). Materials Methods: Preterm had...
Perfusion index (PI) is becoming a part of clinical practice in neonatology to monitor peripheral perfusion noninvasively. Hemodynamic and respiratory changes occur newborns during the transition period after birth which may be affected. Tachypnea frequent symptom this period. While some tachypneic get well less than 6 h diagnosed as "delayed transition", others admitted intensive care unit transient tachypnea newborn (TTN) being most common diagnosis among them. We aimed compare PI neonates...
Objectives: The primary aim of the present study was to investigate survival rates periviable births in a referral Level III NICU center Turkey; secondary determine perinatal and natal risk factors related mortality.Methods: This retrospective cross-sectional conducted at Neonatal Intensive Care Unit between 1 January 2011 31 December 2015. All live deliveries occurring from 22 0/7 weeks 25 6/7 week gestation were included (total n = 165). We documented prenatal, natal, postnatal clinical...
Abernethy malformation is a very rare condition in which mesenteric venous blood drained into systemic circulation by an extra hepatic portosystemic shunt. Here we present case of female infantile period who liver transplant candidate with biliary atresia and ventricular septal defect (VSD) accompanying type 2.The patient underwent Kasai operation at postnatal day 35 was identified as the month 6 due to growth retardation period, insufficient weight gain failure (portal hypertension massive...
Microcirculation is an important component of hemodynamic physiology. It can be assessed simply by clinical scores or a variety techniques including sidestream dark field (SDF) imaging and peripheral perfusion index (PI) measurements. Mode delivery may have affects on microcirculation during transitional period. The aim this study was to compare skin in newborns born via vaginal (VD) cesarian section (C/S).Term healthy not requiring NICU admission were included. Vital signs recorded. Skin...
Ischemia-modified albumin (IMA) is used to determine tissue hypoxia. We aimed evaluate the serum IMA levels in preterm infants requiring transfusion due anemia of prematurity, a clinical condition cause hypoxia.This prospective study was performed Etlik Zubeyde Hanim Hospital, Turkey. Preterm with birth weight less than 1500 g and born between 25 32 weeks were included during assessment for prematurity. The transfused prematurity formed "transfusion group", control group consisted gender,...
Abstract Pyruvate carboxylase (PC) deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive disease and provides clinics in three essential phenotypes. Type B PC characterized by lactic acidosis hyperammonemia. We report Turkish patient who was diagnosed with type deficiency. Despite the application of anaplerotic treatment biotin, citrate arginine-aspartate, continuous veno-venous hemodialysis (CVVHD) treatments were applied due to failure keep hyperammonemia under control. Ammonia values increasing 860...
