Respiratory Physiotherapy Techniques in Neonatal Intensive Care Units: A Scoping Review
ABSTRACT Background and Purpose Certain physiological characteristics increase the susceptibility of newborns, particularly preterm infants, to pulmonary collapse. In addition, newborns are prone to the accumulation of airway secretions, which, even in small volumes, can compromise respiratory function.

Abstract Background Bodyweight, age and breed influence the echocardiographic assessment of foals. There are no echocardiographic studies in Standardbred neonatal foals. Objectives To describe echocardiographic values for selected variables, evaluate intra‐ and inter‐observer variability and assess cardiac changes in the first 5 days of life in healthy

Women with one previous cesarean section and spontaneous labor had the most favorable outcomes in this high‐fertility, resource‐limited setting. Reducing unnecessary elective repeat cesarean section , together with careful decisions regarding primary cesarean section, is not only about lowering cesarean rates but about minimizing cumulative maternal ...

Hamman's crunch—A pathognomonic sign of pneumomediastinum
Summary Pneumomediastinum, particularly spontaneous pneumomediastinum, is uncommon and presents a diagnostic challenge. In human medicine, auscultation of Hamman's crunch, a crepitant, crunching noise, audible over the cardiac region in synchrony with the heartbeat, is considered pathognomonic for pneumomediastinum.
