Recovery of labeled CO2 from acetate in severely burned children.
The purpose of this study was to determine the fractional recovery rate of labeled CO(2) in the breath of severely burned children. This information is needed to perform tracer studies of substrate oxidation using carbon-labeled fatty acids. Nine children, ages 4-14 yr with massive burns participated in the study. All experiments were performed 7 days post burn after an overnight fast. A primed...
متن کاملHeparin reduced mortality and sepsis in severely burned children.
Objectives. In El Salvador, before 1999, morbidity and mortality in severely burned children were high. In 1998, all children with burns of 40% or larger size died and sepsis was found. With heparin use in 1999, some similarly burned children survived, and sepsis, pain, procedures, and scars were noted to be less. This retrospective study presents the details. Methods. A study was conducted at ...
متن کاملTranspulmonary thermodilution for hemodynamic measurements in severely burned children
INTRODUCTION Monitoring of hemodynamic and volumetric parameters after severe burns is of critical importance. Pulmonary artery catheters, however, have been associated with many risks. Our aim was to show the feasibility of continuous monitoring with minimally invasive transpulmonary thermodilution (TPTD) in severely burned pediatric patients. METHODS This prospective cohort study was conduc...

متن کاملMuscle contractile properties in severely burned rats.
Burn induces a sustained catabolic response which causes massive loss of muscle mass after injury. A better understanding of the dynamics of muscle wasting and its impact on muscle function is necessary for the development of effective treatments. Male Sprague-Dawley rats underwent either a 40% total body surface area (TBSA) scald burn or sham burn, and were further assigned to subgroups at fou...
