Aortic stenosis in the midgestation fetus with a normal-sized or dilated left ventricle predictably progresses to hypoplastic heart syndrome when associated certain physiological findings. Prenatal balloon aortic valvuloplasty may improve growth and function, possibly preventing evolution syndrome.Between March 2000 October 2008, 70 fetuses underwent attempted for critical evolving syndrome. We analyzed this experience determine factors procedural postnatal outcome. The median gestational...
Fetal aortic valvuloplasty can be performed for severe midgestation stenosis in an attempt to prevent progression hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS). A subset of patients has achieved a biventricular (BV) circulation after fetal valvuloplasty. The postnatal outcomes and survival the BV patients, comparison with those managed as HLHS, have not been reported.We included 100 who underwent evolving HLHS from March 2000 January 2013. Patients were categorized based on management or HLHS....
Neonates with hypoplastic left heart syndrome and intact or highly restrictive atrial septum have a high rate of mortality. We sought to assess the effect prenatal intervention intended create septal defects in fetuses this diagnosis.We reviewed medical records imaging all undergoing for defect creation setting septum. The procedures were performed percutaneous cardiac puncture under guidance ultrasonography. For 21 interventions, patient procedural characteristics analyzed identify...
Abstract Objective Little is known about the obstetric care of an ongoing pregnancy with trisomy 21. We sought to ascertain profile for pregnancies Down syndrome help guide prenatal management. Method Pregnancies managed delivery 21 between 2003 and 2014 were analyzed. reviewed demographic data, diagnostic testing, surveillance, outcomes, placental pathology. T ‐test, chi‐squared test, Fisher correction used as indicated. Results Sixty‐eight identified, four women (5.9%) experienced a loss...
Fetal cardiac intervention (FCI) has been performed at our center in selected fetuses with complex congenital heart disease since 2000. Most interventions are a ductus arteriosus (DA)-dependent circulation. Indomethacin promotes closure of the DA newborns and fetal life, potentially life threatening complication ductus-dependent disease.We reviewed experience FCI focus on frequency, features, clinical course ductal constriction. Fetuses undergoing receive comprehensive pre- postoperative...
The purpose of this Roy adaptation model-based multi-site international mixed method study was to examine the relations type caesarean birth (unplanned/planned), number births (primary/repeat), and preparation for women's perceptions responses birth. sample included 488 women from United States (n = 253), Finland 213), Australia 22). Path analysis revealed direct effects on birth, an indirect effect through perception experience.
Introduction: Hearing is a complex function and its integrity essential for the acquisition development of language. An infection by Toxoplasma gondii during pregnancy can damage auditory system neonate.
Introduction: Hearing plays a key role in the social integration of individuals because it is one main means contact with external world. It has been demonstrated that use chloroquine phosphate third quarter pregnancy may be ototoxic for fetus.
Introduction: The knowledge of socioeconomic and demographic factors the population treated in neonatal hearing screening programs can help identify cause loss evasion.
Obese people present a greater risk of developing other systemic diseases and comorbidities such as compromising the tissue repair process. Laser phototherapy can contribute to this by improving cellular functions, since stem cells may play an important role in due their pluripotent potential. In way, influence Phototherapy (LP) was evaluated rats submitted hyperlipid diet through CD49 immunostaining for adipose cells. Forty-eight Wistar albinus were divided into two experimental groups:...
