Methods :The clinical data on 228 cases of premature infants treated by neonatal wards were analyzed retrospectivelly. Results : The important factors of premature are cholestasis of pregnancy syndrome, premature rupture of membbranes, and hypertemsion in prefnancy. The commom diseases in premature infants are neonatal pnecemonia, hyperbilirubinemia and asphxia, the major factors in poor prognasis are caused by neonatal shock, multiple organ failure in premature infants. Conclusion :The main reasons of premature is maternal factors. It is important to strengthen the health care during pregnancy, control the complications of mothers actively, at the same time, improve the level of neonatal first aid, intervent early, so as to imprive the quality of life in preterm infants.
摘要:目的:观察小儿反复性肺炎的发生与血微量元素的关系。方法:选择56例反复性肺炎患儿为观察组,与60例健康儿童作对照,分别测定血镉、铅、铜、锌、钙、镁、铁含量。结果:56例反复性肺炎患儿血锌、铁含量较对照组减低,差异有统计学意义(Plt;0.05)。结论:部分反复性肺炎的发生与血微量元素锌、铁缺乏有关。应对反复性肺炎患儿常规行血微量元素检测,对血微量元素缺乏者应予相应补充治疗。Abstract: Objective: To observe the relationship to the occurrence of repeated pneumonia and the microelement in blood. Methods: We chose the 56 infant patients who suffered from repeated pneumonia as the observe group while the 60 health infants as the comprise group, then test the content of cadmium, plumbum, cuprum, zinc, calcium, magnesium and ferrum in blood. Results: The content of zinc and ferrum in the patient’s blood was lower than the comparison group, and the P value was Plt;0.01 and Plt;0.05 respectively, there was obvious differentiation between the two groups. Conclusion: Occurence of part repeated pneumonia is related to the deficiency of the microelements zinc and ferrum in blood. We should detect the common content of microelement to the infant patients who suffer the repeated pneumonia, and give a complement treatment to the microelements’ deficiency infant patients.
ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy of non-nutritional sucking and 10% glucose water plus non-nutritional sucking in relieving the venipuncture pain for premature infants. MethodA total of 167 premature infants between April and December 2014 were selected as our study subjects, and they were randomly divided into three groups:intervention group Ⅰ (n=53), intervention group Ⅱ (n=58), and the control group (without any intervention, n=56). Two minutes before venous indwelling needle puncture, blood oxygen saturation and heart rate of the infants were recorded during their quiet state. In the process of venipuncture, the intervention group Ⅰ was given non-nutritional sucking, intervention group Ⅱ was given 10% glucose water plus non-nutritional sucking, and the control group did not accept any intervention. Premature pain rating scale (PIPP) was used to compare the three groups of infants in terms of pain score, heart rate and blood oxygen saturation 1 minute and 5 minutes after intravenous indwelling needle puncture. SPSS 17.0 software was applied for statistical analysis. ResultsOf the 167 premature infants, one-time puncture was successful in 152 infants, with 46 in intervention group Ⅰ, 54 in intervention group Ⅱ, and 52 in control group. One minute after intravenous indwelling needle puncture, PIPP score of intervention group Ⅰ and Ⅱ was significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.05). The PIPP score of intervention group Ⅱ was significantly lower than that of intervention group Ⅰ (P<0.05). One minute and 5 minutes after intravenous indwelling needle puncture, heart rate in the intervention groups was significantly lower than that in the control group (P<0.05), blood oxygen saturation in the intervention groups was signficantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.05), and they were significantly lower in intervention group Ⅱ than in intervention group Ⅰ (P<0.05). ConclusionsNon-nutritional sucking is effective in alleviating venipuncture pain for premature infants, especially when it is used together with 10% glucose water. The method is worthy of clinical promotion.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the efficacy and safety of ibuprofen for premature infants with patent ductus arteriosus. MethodsDatabases including PubMed, Ovid-EMbase, The Cochrane Library (Issue 11, 2014), CNKI, WanFang Data and VIP were searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and quasi-RCTs about ibuprofen for premature infants with patent ductus arteriosus from inception to December 2014. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Then meta-analysis was conducted by RevMan 5.3 software. ResultsA total of 37 RCTs, involving 2 370 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that, compared with the placebo/blank group, ibuprofen could increase the closure rate of PDA (LBWI:RR=1.93, 95%CI 1.25 to 2.99,P=0.003; VLBW:RR=1.23, 95%CI 1.02 to 1.48, P=0.03; ELBWI:RR=2.86, 95%CI 1.51 to 5.41, P=0.001) and decrease the incidence of sepsis (VLBW:RR=0.21, 95%CI 0.07 to 0.64,P=0.006); Compared with the indometacin groups, ibuprofen could decrease the incidence of the increase of serum creatinine (LBWI:RR=0.11, 95%CI 0.04 to 0.37, P=0.000 2), NEC (LBWI, RR=0.52, 95%CI 0.29 to 0.95, P=0.03) and oliguria (LBWI: RR=0.30, 95%CI 0.16 to 0.56, P=0.000 2; VLBW:RR=1.40, 95%CI 1.03 to 1.92, P=0.03); Compared with the intravenous ibuprofen, Oral ibuprofen could increase the closure rate of PDA (VLBW: RR=1.35, 95%CI 1.12 to 1.62, P=0.002; ELBWI, RR=1.42, 95%CI 1.07 to 1.87, P=0.01). ConclusionCurrent evidence shows that there is not indeterminate between ibuprofen and paracetamol groups. Compared with other general drugs, ibuprofen has an advantage over curing PDA and obviously reduces side effects. Due to the limited quality and quantity of included studies, more high quality studies are needed to verify the above conclusion.
Objective To investigate the application of delayed sternal closure (DSC) following arterial switch operation for neonates with transposition of great arteries (D-TGA). Methods We retrospectively analyzed clinical data of 172 neonates underwent arterial switch operation with transposition of great arteries (D-TGA) between June 1st 2009 and December 31st 2015. These neonates were divided into 2 groups including a DSC group (118 patients with 99 males and 19 females) and a non-DSC group (54 patients with 47 males and 7 females). The outcome of the two groups were compared. Results Preoperative mechanical ventilation(P<0.001), emergency surgery (P=0.023) and extracorporeal circulation time (P<0.001) were the risk factors for delayed sternal closure. The incidence of complications of median sternotomy incision in the DSC group was not higher than that in the non-DSC group. The mortality rate in the DSC group was markedly higher than that in the non-DSC group (P<0.001). However, DSC was not a risk factor for the death of the neonates. Conclusion Delayed sternal closure does not increase the incidence of complications of the median sternotomy incision, nor is it a risk factor for the death of the neonates. Reasonable application of delayed sternal closure is helpful for early postoperative recovery of the neonates.
Abstract: Objective To analyze the early outcomes of open heart surgery for congenital heart diseases in sixty low birth weight infants and premature infants. Methods Sixty low birth weight infants (body weight<2 500 g) and premature infants with congenital heart diseases undergoing surgical repair from May 2003 to October 2011 were studied retrospectively in Guangdong Cardiovascular Institute. There were 43 male patients and 17 female patients with their mean gestational age of 33.5±4.1 weeks (ranging from 26 to 42 weeks) and mean age at operation of 24.9±12.5 d(ranging from 4 to 55 d). Among them there were 47 premature infants with their mean birth weight of 1 729.3±522.5 g(ranging from 640 to 2 500 g)and mean weight at operation of 1 953.2±463.6 g (ranging from 650 to 2 712 g). All the patients received preoperative treatment in newborn intensive care unit(NICU) and underwent surgical repair under general anesthesia, including 29 patients without cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB)and 31 patients with CPB . All surviving patients received postoperative monitoring and treatment in NICU, and their postoperative complications and in-hospital death were reported. Results A total of 13 patients died during hospitalization with a total in-hospital mortality of 21.7%(13/60), including 4 intra-operative deaths, 6 early deaths (within 72 h postoperatively) and 3 patients giving up postoperative treatment. CPB time was 121.0±74.7 min, aortic clamp time was 74.8±44.7 min, and postoperative mechanicalventilation time was (136.9±138.1)h. Thirteen patients underwent delayed sternal closure. Eight patients underwentreexploation for postoperative bleeding. Ten patients had severe pneumonia, 2 patients had pulmonary hypertensive crisis, and 8 patients had low cardiac output syndrome. All the postoperative complications were resolved or improved after proper treatment. Follow-up was complete in 47 patients from 2 to 12 monthes, and all the patients were alive during follow-up. Conclusion Early surgical repair for low birth weight infants and premature infants with congenital heart diseases is safe and effective.
ObjectiveTo explore the influence of paternal serum HBV-DNA load levels and pregnant women's HBsAb on vertical transmission of hepatitis B virus (HBV) from HBsAg positive fathers to infants in order to provide effective methods for paternal-fetal ventrical transmission of HBV prevention. MethodsUsing HBsAg and HBV-DNA as indicators to screen pregnant women and their husbands after gained consent, 121 families with HBVM negative or only HBsAb positive and HBV-DNA negative pregnant women, HBsAg positive husbands and their newborns were selected. In this case-control study, according to neonatal cord blood HBV-DNA detection, 23 newborns with cord blood HBV-DNA positive were selected as cases, 98 newborns as controls. ResultsThe positive rate of neonatal cord blood HBV-DNA was 19.0% (23/121); and there was dose-response relationship between paternal serum HBV-DNA load levels and neonatal cord blood HBV-DNA positive (trend χ2=60.108, P=0.000). The analysis of ROC curve showed that paternal serum HBV-DNA load level (106 copies/mL) is a better demarcation point to forecast the occurrence of vertical transmission of HBV from HBsAg positive fathers to infants, because there was a better sensitivity and specificity during forecast; and HBsAb negative pregnant women's were statistically significant (χ2=12.399, P=0.000). There was no significant difference at the positive rate of neonatal cord blood HBV-DNA between the case group and control group when paternal serum HBV-DNA load levels exceed 107 copies/mL (P > 0.05). ConclusionPaternal serum HBV-DNA load levels and HBsAb negative pregnant women are the risk factors of vertical transmission of HBV from HBsAg positive father to infants. Paternal serum HBV-DNA load level (106 copies/mL) is an appropriate index of the occurrence of vertical transmission.
Objective To explore the effectiveness of passive immunization of fetus via mother on preventing the transmission of HBV from mother to infant. Methods A prospective randomized controlled study was designed. Fifty-two HBeAg positive pregnant women were randomly allocated to two groups, of which 28 women were allocated to trial group, and injected with 200 IU of hepatitis B immune globulin (HBIG) for 1 injection at the 28th, 32nd and 36th weeks of pregnancy respectively, 24 women allocated to control group were given no injection of HBIG. The samples of cord blood from the newborns in two groups were collected and tested for HBeAg and HBV-DNA by ELISA and FQ-PCR. Results The rates of HBeAg positive in the newborns were 21.4% in trial group, 79.2% in control group. There was statistically significant difference between two groups ( χ2=17.26, Plt;0.01, RR=0.27). The rates of HBV-DNA positive in newborns were 25.0% in trial group, 83.3% in control group, showing statistically significant difference between the two groups (χ2=17.62, Plt;0.01, RR=0.30). In the trial group, there were 21 newborns with HBV-DNA negative, 7 with HBV-DNA positive. HBV-DNA quantities were significantly lower in 7 newborns than in their mothers (T=28, P=0.02, Wilcoxon test). Conclusions Multiple injections of HBIG to pregnant women with HBeAg positive before labor could greatly reduce mother-infant transmission of HBV.
Objective To summarize the clinical characteristics of coarctation of the aorta (CoA) associated with intracardiac anomalies in infants. Methods The data from August 2009 to August 2017 of 86 infants who were diagnosed with CoA associated with intracardiac anomalies were analyzed. Preoperative diagnosis, surgical findings and post-operation follow-up were analyzed retrospectively. There were 56 males and 30 females at age of 1–346 (95.1±78.0)d. All the included patients underwent single-stage repair of CoA associated with intracardiac anomalies. Results Mean operative time was 279.0±56.4 min, mean cardiopulmonary bypass time was 162.3±51.0 min, and mean aorta cross-clamp time was 74.7±25.2 min. Mean length of ICU stay and ventilation time was 7.4±4.7 days and 101.1±75.4 hours, respectively. The residual transcoarctation gradient before discharge was lower than pre-operative transcoarctation gradient significantly (42.3±17.7 mm Hg vs. 22.1±9.4 mm Hg, P<0.001), and 7 early deaths were observed after surgery. The mean follow-up time of 79 hospital survivors was 31.0±27.4 months. And no late death was found. Transcoarctation gradient of hospital survivors in the last time follow-up was 21.2±11.0 mm Hg. Transcoarctation gradient of 29 patients was higher than 20 mm Hg. However, only 4 patients with significant clinical symptom of lower limbs retardation were recommended for ballon angioplasty consultant. The cumulative recoarctation-free survival in 2-year follow-up was 69.2%. Conclusions To avoid early second-stage operations, single-stage repair of CoA associated with intracardiac anomalies is effective and safe, and the outcomes of early to mid term follow-up are satisfactory.
Objective To explore the risk factors of premature infants death. Methods The medical records of hospitalized premature infants admitted to West China Second University Hospital of Sichuan University between January 2015 and December 2022 were collected. Premature infants were divided into the death group and the non-death group (control group) based on discharge diagnosis of death. Parturient and premature infants related information were collected, and the disease classification and diagnosis of premature infants were analyzed. Results A total of 13 739 premature infants were included, with 53 deaths and a mortality rate of 3.85‰ (53/13 739). The ages of death were 1-49 days, and the median age of death was (9.68±9.35) days. According to the matching method, 212 premature infants were ultimately included. Among them, there were 53 premature infants in the death group and 159 premature infants in the control group. Compared with the control group, premature infants in the death group had lower gestational age, birth weight, lower 1-minute Apgar scores, lower 5-minute Apgar scores and shorter hospital stay (P<0.05), and received more delivery interventions (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in other indicators between the two groups of premature infants (P>0.05). A total of 212 parturient were included. Among them, there were 53 parturients in the death group and 159 parturients in the control group. The use rate of prenatal corticosteroids in the control group was higher than that in the death group (55.35% vs. 54.72%). There was no statistically significant difference in other related factors between the two groups of parturient (P>0.05). The results of logistic regression analysis showed that longer hospital stay [odds ratio (OR)=0.891, 95% confidence interval (CI) (0.842, 0.943), P<0.001], prenatal use of corticosteroids [OR=0.255, 95%CI (0.104, 0.628), P=0.003] reduced the risk of premature infant death. However, tracheal intubation [OR=10.738, 95%CI (2.893, 39.833), P<0.001] increased the risk of premature infant death. Conclusions Clinicians should pay attention to prenatal examination of newborns and pay attention to evaluation of newborn status. Obstetricians and neonatologists should make joint plans for women with high risk factors for preterm delivery. During the hospitalization, after the diagnosis is clear, standardized treatment should be carried out in strict accordance with the guidelines for systemic diseases and expert consensus.
