Newborns affected by congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) are high-risk patients: today the mortality is still elevated and essentially due to severe pulmonary hypoplasia, hypertension absence of surfactant. High-Frequency Oscillatory Ventilation (HFOV) seems be a good pre- postoperative technique in cases CDH.We report our experience treatment CDH; since 1987 we have followed 44 patients. We divided them into two different groups accordance with ventilation used: Group I (1987-1994): 25...
This study investigates the first documented use of spinal anesthesia in Italy, performed by surgeon Benedetto Schiassi 1899. Faced with limitations and risks general a critically ill patient requiring urgent leg amputation, employed cocaine as local anesthetic, refining technique innovative modifications, including reduced dosage prone positioning to mitigate adverse effects. Archival records period medical publications highlight these refined techniques, contributing broader evolution...
Abstract Background Fetal movements are an important indicator of fetal well-being; therefore, reduced (RFMs) can indicate compromise. RFM is associated with growth restriction (FGR) and intrauterine death (IUFD). Studies have implied that COVID-19 infection increases the risk adverse outcomes, such as preterm birth IUFD. It unclear how may aggravate these outcomes among women presenting RFM. The aims study were to (1) determine whether in increased 2020 compared 2019, year before pandemic,...

We present Alpha-BET, a structure-guided strategy leveraging AlphaFold to identify optimal ALFAtag insertion sites for minimally disruptive labeling of viral glycoproteins with high-affinity nanobodies. Applied HIV-1 Env, SARS-CoV-2 S, and Nipah G, Alpha-BET preserves structural integrity function. For we demonstrate super-resolution DNA-PAINT MINFLUX 3D imaging enabled by tag insertion, showcasing its power visualizing native trimers in single virions potential broader virological applications.
We examined the reliability of main prenatal and postnatal prognosis-related indexes that can be used to evaluate congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) outcome.Seventy-seven neonates with CDH were analyzed according factors, divided into findings, clinical values predictive outcome scores applied at birth within first 12-24 h. The data are compared between two groups: survivors non-survivors.During age, major associated anomalies, intrathoracic stomach, diagnosis prior 25 weeks gestational...
We examined cardiovascular changes associated with intra-abdominal insufflation in 20 children (mean age 6.1+/-4.7 years, ASA physical status I or II) undergoing laparoscopic surgery general anaesthesia using echocardiography a transthoracic approach. Intra-abdominal pressure never exceeded 10 mmHg. Systolic blood pressure, diastolic endtidal CO2, peak, and mean airway increased during (P < 0.001). Pneumoperitoneum was increases (P<0.001) left ventricular enddiastolic volume, end-systolic...
We describe our three-year experience with the laparoscopically assisted anorectal pullthrough for high imperforate anus using laparoscopic muscle electrostimulation.From March 2001 to January 2004, 7 patients a diagnosis of malformation underwent pull-through. The patients, all males aged from 4 9 months (mean age, 5.8 months), presented rectourethral fistula. associated malformations noted were sacral malformation, laryngeal stenosis, urethral duplication, multicystic kidney, nonpalpable...
The aim of the study is to evaluate application neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) in respiratory weaning patients affected by congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH).We analyzed NAVA 12 neonates CDH, relating effectiveness electrical activation diaphragm (EAdi) signal type CDH repair (with or without patch), size patch, stomach and His angle position, trend evaluation some cardiorespiratory parameters with compared pressure-support-ventilation (PSV).5 submitted primary showed a...
Latex allergy is frequently found in children and patients with spina bifida urogenital abnormalities have been considered at risk for latex sensitization. The aim of the study was to evaluate incidence sensitization oesophageal atresia undergoing three or more surgical procedures identify possible factors process sensitization.A total 20 were analysed: 19 boys one girl. atresias as follows: type I children, II two III 15 children. Surgical anaesthetic procedures, intensive care management,...
Summary Tracheal agenesis is a potentially lethal congenital anomaly, appearing only at birth. We describe newborn preterm infant who presented with immediate respiratory distress and no audible cry. There was almost complete tracheal very short segment of distal trachea (only two rings) arising from the anterior wall esophagus, before dividing into mainstem bronchi. The anomaly unsuspected prenatally, as scan showed pyloric atresia complex cardiac disease. Despite patient's difficult...
Background and objective: This study was performed to determine the individual exposure of paediatric operating theatre personnel sevoflurane evaluate impact inhalation induction various airway approaches on airborne sevoflurane. Methods: Mean environmental (workplace air) a biomarker (urinary sevoflurane) were monitored in 36 subjects (10 anaesthetists, 10 surgeons, 12 nurses 4 auxiliary personnel) working two rooms. Results: Environmental urinary values significantly greater anaesthetists...

Summary This study evaluates the efficiency of heat and moisture exchangers (HMEs) in allowing adequate humidification warming during anaesthesia children. Eighteen paediatric patients undergoing were divided into two groups: group A ten patients: infants up to 10 kg→Hygrobaby HME; B 8 children above kg→Hygroboy HME. The following parameters evaluated: body temperature (bT), room (rT), fresh gas temperature, HME warm‐up time, inspired expired gases humidity, conserving efficiency, duration...
