AGRANULOCYTOSIS OF THE NEWBORN INFANT

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1950
Agranulocytosis has been reported as occurring from infancy on through all age groups. However, we have been unable to find any reports of agranulocytosis of a newborn infant. In 1933 Givan and Shapiro 1 reviewed the cases of 2 infants, aged 10 and 12 weeks, with agranulocytosis. Ten years later Kato 2 reported the case of an 8 week old infant, in whom

Perinatal asphyxia may occur prior to or at the time of birth, leading to hypoxia and acidosis with persistence of the fetal circulatory pattern. Resuscitation facilitates transition to the adult circulatory pattern by restoring normal oxygenation, ventilation, and perfusion.

PNEUMONIA IN NEWBORN INFANTS

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1955
Pathologists have recognized since late in the 19th century that pneumonia was responsible for the deaths of many newborn infants.1Since many who died were stillborn or died within the first few hours or days of life, it was obvious that a certain proportion must have acquired pneumonia in utero.

Complement in the Newborn Infant

Pediatrics, 1979
Classical pathway activities and component concentrations in sera from newborns can be compared more realistically to normal adult values than to maternal values since activities and components are increased in maternal sera. Whole complement hemolytic activity appears to be subnormal in approximately half of term infants, with mean activity being ...

Methaemoglobinaemia in the Newborn Infant

Clinics in Haematology, 1978
Methaemoglobinaemia is a rare condition in which the haemoglobin iron is in the oxidized or ferric state and cannot reversibly bind oxygen. If severe, this condition leads to hypoxaemia and death. Methaemoglobinaemia may be acquired by exposure to oxidant drugs or chemicals.

Cholelithiasis in newborns and infants

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1992
Cholelithiasis in infants is rare, and has usually been associated with hemolysis, ileal disease, congenital anomalies of the biliary tree, hyperalimentation, and prolonged fasting. With the increased use of abdominal ultrasonography (US), more cases of cholelithiasis are being discovered. We report our experience with 13 infants diagnosed on abdominal

Resuscitation of the Newborn Infant

The American Journal of Nursing, 1974
Everyone who cares for newborn infants must be skillful in a method of resuscitation. Effective techniques, however, are not so sophisticated that only specially prepared staff in special care units can carry them out. Physicians and nurses in every delivery unit should be prepared to act whenever needed.
