Features and outcomes of neonatal neuroblastoma

Pediatric Surgery International, 2011
Neonatal neuroblastoma (NNBL) is a rare tumour with few reported cases in the literature. The prognosis of NNBL is unclear with reported survival between 76 and 91%. The growing use of ante-natal ultrasound (USS) in recent years has resulted in an increasing incidence of NNBL.

Evaluating and comparing neonatal outcomes

Archives of Disease in Childhood - Fetal and Neonatal Edition, 2009
Although it is generally accepted that a standardised approach to the collection of perinatal and neonatal data is required, definitions of the most straightforward outcomes such as perinatal and neonatal mortality still vary across the developed world. As such the wide variations seen in neonatal outcomes may be attributable to external influences—for

Neonatal encephalopathy: etiology and outcome

Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 2005
The original study by Badawi et al. investigated risk factors for neonatal encephalopathy (NE) and/or neonatal seizures in term infants. They used a broad definition appropriate for examining etiology and capable of asking such questions as: what proportion of NE arises after birth asphyxia? The answer was: some, but not much. That study was, and still

Alcohol in pregnancy and neonatal outcome

Seminars in Neonatology, 2000
Fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS) and other fetal alcohol effects in children are characterized by life-long compromises in growth, health, behaviour and cognitive ability. Most of the structural signs and many behavioural signs of FAS are evident at birth.

Neonatal Hypothyroidism: Treatment and Outcome

Thyroid, 1999
Systematic neonatal screening for congenital hypothyroidism (CH), which was progressively implemented in industrialized countries over the past 15 to 25 years, has been extremely successful in eradicating severe mental deficiency resulting from CH. However, in the first generation of children diagnosed by screening, the concept that CH has a threshold ...

Quality of neonatal care and outcome

Archives of Disease in Childhood - Fetal and Neonatal Edition, 2007
High quality of care in neonatology implies providing an appropriate level of care to well newborn babies as well as more specialised care for the few babies who need it. Audit, surveillance and outcome studies may not always capture the complexity of quality of care and its contribution to outcome, and a more focused approach to standards of care ...

Outcome following neonatal seizures

Seminars in Fetal and Neonatal Medicine, 2013
Neonatal seizures are the most common manifestation of neurological disorders in the newborn period and an important determinant of outcome. Overall, for babies born at full term, mortality following seizures has improved in the last decade, typical current mortality rates being 10% (range: 7-16%), down from 33% in reports from the 1990s.
