Audit in practice : surveillance for hypoglycaemia in the neonatal paediatric intensive care unit [PDF]

, 1998
Hypoglycaemia in neonates is defined as a blood glucose ≤ 2.6 mmol/1. Certain categories of babies are at particularly high risk of developing hypoglycaemia in the first few days of life, and are routinely monitored in the Neonatal Paediatric Intensive ...

Neonatal sepsis

Journal of Pediatric and Neonatal Individualized Medicine, 2014
In this paper on neonatal sepsis, after a short presentation of etiopathogenesis and physiopathology, we will briefly present the clinical picture, the diagnosis and the therapy. Concerning diagnosis, we will focus our attention on procalcitonin (PCT),

A novel synonymous ABCA3 variant identified in a Chinese family with lethal neonatal respiratory failure

BMC Medical Genomics, 2021
Background Lethal respiratory failure is primarily caused by a deficiency of pulmonary surfactant, and is the main cause of neonatal death among preterm infants.

Tracé alternant detector for grading hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy in neonatal EEG [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
Electroencephalography (EEG) is an important clinical tool to capture sleep-wake cycling. It can also be used for grading injury, known as hypoxic-ischaemic encephalopathy(HIE), caused by lack of oxygen or blood to the brain during birth. Trac\'e alternant (TA) is a distinctive component of normal quiet sleep which consists of alternating periods of ...

Engineering Assembloids to Mimic Graft‐Host Skeletal Muscle Interaction

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study develops a graft‐host skeletal muscle assembloid model combining neuromuscular organoids with tissue‐engineered constructs. Pre‐seeding decellularized muscles with myogenic cells enhances cell migration and axon invasion from the organoid. The model exhibits regenerative capacity following acute damage, advancing the understanding of human ...

Measuring uncertainty during respiratory rate estimation using pressure-sensitive mats [PDF]

IEEE Transactions on Instrumentation and Measurement, 2018, 2018
We develop and evaluate a respiratory rate estimation algorithm that utilizes data from pressure-sensitive mat (PSM) technology for continuous patient monitoring in neonatal intensive care units (NICU). An analysis of the random effect of drift and systematic effect of creep in the PSM data is presented, showing that these are essentially dependent on ...

Bioprinting Perfusable and Vascularized Skeletal Muscle Flaps for the Treatment of Volumetric Muscle Loss

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Volumetric muscle loss (VML) due to trauma or surgery, often leads to physical impairments. Traditional treatments rely on autologous flaps, limited by muscle availability often leading to donor site morbidity. This study presents multimodal bioprinting as an innovative approach for fabricating vascularized muscle flaps with 3D‐printed macrovessels ...

Wireless Accelerometer for Neonatal MRI Motion Artifact Correction [PDF]

, 2017
A wireless accelerometer has been used in conjunction with a dedicated 3T neonatal MRI system installed on a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit to measure in-plane rotation which is a common problem with neonatal MRI.

Routine gastric residual volume measurement to guide enteral feeding in mechanically ventilated infants and children : the GASTRIC feasibility study [PDF]

, 2020
Background The routine measurement of gastric residual volume to guide the initiation and delivery of enteral feeding, is widespread in paediatric intensive care and neonatal units, but has little underlying evidence to support it.

8. Neonatal intensive care [PDF]

New South Wales Public Health Bulletin, 2002
There were 2,003 infants registered in NICUS in 2002. The most common reasons for registration of an infant were assisted ventilation for four hours or more (66.2 per cent) and gestational age less than 29 weeks (18.5 per cent). Infants generally met more than one of the registration criteria.
