Abstract The aim of this study is to provide an extensive review the published literature regarding use nasogastric (NG) feeds at discharge in neonatal population as well our experience with implementation NG program level IV intensive care unit. We reviewed and compared tubes gastrostomy population. previous publications programs neonates across United States Europe including preterm neonates, chronic lung disease, neurological injury. also parents' perspectives on telehealth remote...
Abstract Neonatal toxic shock syndrome (TSS)-like exanthematous disease (NTED) is a first reported in Japan. Neonates develop systemic exanthema, thrombocytopenia, and fever usually during the week of life. The distinguished from frank TSS because affected infants are not severely ill do meet criteria. Most confirmed to be colonized with TSST-1 producing strains S. aureus. Suggested diagnostic criteria for NTED include skin rash generalized macular erythema one following symptoms:...
To describe characteristics, outcomes, and risk factors for death or tracheostomy with home mechanical ventilation in full-term infants chronic lung disease (CLD) admitted to regional neonatal intensive care units.This was a multicenter, retrospective cohort study of born ≥37 weeks gestation the Children's Hospitals Neonatal Consortium.Out 67,367 2010-2016, 4886 (7%) had CLD based on receiving respiratory support at either 28 days life discharge. 3286 (67%) were still hospitalized support,...
OBJECTIVES: To describe ventilation strategies used during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for neonatal respiratory failure among level IV ICUs (NICUs). DESIGN: Cross-sectional electronic survey. SETTING: Email-based Research Electronic Data Capture PATIENTS: Neonates undergoing ECMO at NICUs. INTERVENTIONS: A 40-question survey was sent to site sponsors of regional referral centers participating in the Children’s Hospitals Neonatal Consortium. Reminder emails were 2- and 4-week...
A 2.2-kg female infant is born at 28 4/7 weeks’ gestation to a 21-year-old gravida 1, para 0 woman with adequate prenatal care. During pregnancy, the mother treated for Chlamydia repeat negative cultures. She has serologies and normal fetal ultrasonographic scan 20 gestation. Delivery via cesarean section due premature labor frank breech presentation. At delivery, noted have no respiratory effort large sacrococcygeal mass (Fig 1) . Positive pressure ventilation started undergoes intubation 3...
Background: The U-antigen is part of the MNS blood group. Named for its almost universal expression, a U-negative phenotype reported in ~1% individuals African descent. spectrum IgG-mediated anti-U hemolysis includes alloimmune disease fetus and newborn. clinical presentation among affected newborns ranges from mild anemia to erythroblastosis fetalis. Case Description: We present case maternal positivity severe middle cerebral artery (MCA) Doppler concerning hemolytic newborn managed by...
A 39-3/7 weeks’ gestation male infant is born to a 29-year-old gravida 1 para 0 woman via urgent cesarean delivery due failed induction. Prenatal laboratory tests yielded unremarkable results. Rupture of membranes for 7 days. Apgar scores are 3, 6, and 8 at 1, 5, 10 minutes, respectively. In the room, baby requires positive pressure ventilation respiratory distress. Initial chest radiography reveals possible diaphragmatic hernia (Fig 1). The patient intubated distress placed on conventional...

At 17 days of age, brought emergency department (ED) acute onset bloody stools occurred once, along lime-yellow vomitus concerning for bilious emesis. reports had been fussy...
The result of a field test ConocoPhillips Specialty Products Inc.'s (CSPI) LiquidPowertm Flow Improver, type Drag Reducing Agent (DRA), at ChevronTexaco's Inda platform in Nigeria is reported this paper.Analytically, started experiencing deviation pipeline pressure drop between the actual and theoretical values about April 1998 gradually worsened (Figure 4). However, impact was not felt as under production curtailment. But March 2003 when need to increase arose, it discovered that throughput...
