Transfusion strategies for patients in pediatric intensive care units [PDF]

, 2007
Background: The optimal hemoglobin threshold for erythrocyte transfusions in critically ill children is unknown. We hypothesized that a restrictive transfusion strategy of using packed red cells that were leukocyte-reduced before storage would be as safe

Agreement between cardiac cycle time intervals and myocardial velocities measured by automated analysis of color tissue Doppler cine loops and by manual tracing of spectral pulsed‐wave tissue Doppler waveforms of sheep fetal heart under normal and pathological conditions: An experimental study

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Automated cTDI in sheep fetuses provided reproducible measurements of myocardial velocities and heart rate that align well with manual pulsed‐wave TDI. For cardiac cycle duration metrics, the two modalities are not interchangeable. These findings support that automated cTDI is well suited for longitudinal assessment under both physiological and ...

Prenatal Exposure to Toxic Metals and Early Neurodevelopmental Outcomes in Infants Following Intrauterine Blood Transfusion: A Prospective Cohort Study

Toxics
Fetal exposure to toxic metals is a major public health concern, yet the contribution of intrauterine blood transfusion (IUBT) to this exposure remains unclear. This prospective cohort study assessed mercury, cadmium, lead, and arsenic levels in maternal

Incidence and risk factors for postpartum infections: A Norwegian cohort study, 2012–2020

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Nationwide registry data from 516 874 deliveries in Norway (2012–2020) show that postpartum infections are common and that endometritis/puerperal sepsis is increasing. Delivery‐related factors, especially emergency cesarean section, postpartum hemorrhage, and chorioamnionitis, show the strongest associations.

Multi‐professional simulation training on prolonged labor in Tanzania: A quasi‐experimental, pre‐post interventional study

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
We hypothesized that simulation training on management of prolonged labor can reduce the rate of cesarean sections in active labor. Management of prolonged labor in teams emphasized respectful maternity care and shared decision‐making. Results showed a reduction in the cesarean section rate from 7.4% to 2.7% during the active phase of prolonged labor ...
