Investigation of Changes in Nucleated Red Blood Cells in Neonatal Infection
Background: Early diagnosis is paramount to the treatment of neonatal infections. Nucleated red blood cells (NRBCs) are immature erythrocytes that increase in number due to stress and hypoxia. This study was conducted to determine NRBC count in the peripheral blood and examine its significance as a marker of neonatal infection. Methods: This case-control study was conducted on 154 infants (78 ...
متن کاملCord blood nucleated red blood cell count - a marker of fetal asphyxia
Objectives : To study the cord blood nucleated RBC count (NRBC) in asphyxiated and nonasphyxiated fetuses at birth and to find out the correlation between NRBC count, fetal acidosis and the clinical markers of asphyxia. Methods : This is a prospective comparative study conducted between 2002 and 2004. Parturient women who were in labor between 37 and 42 weeks of gestation were selected after sa...
متن کاملNucleated red blood cells in the fetus and newborn.
Although nucleated red blood cells (nRBCs) are rarely found circulating in older children, they are commonly seen in the blood of newborns. They are primarily produced in the fetal bone marrow in response to erythropoietin and are stored in the marrow as precursors to reticulocytes and mature erythrocytes. Many acute and chronic stimuli cause increases in the number of circulating nRBCs from ei...
متن کاملZero Oxygen Saturation in Pulse Oximeter: Need for Clinical Correlation
Sir, I would like to share an unusual incident, which had happened recently in our operation theater. This event had occurred while conducting spinal anesthesia for a 28-year-male patient with an inguinal hernia for meshplasty. His preoperative anesthetic evaluation and investigations were unremarkable. In the operating room, the blood pressure (BP) cuff and pulse oximeter were applied in the s...
متن کاملEffect of passive smoking in pregnancy on neonatal nucleated red blood cells.
OBJECTIVE We evaluated whether the absolute nucleated red blood cell (RBC) count is elevated in term, appropriate for gestational age (AGA) infants born to women exposed to passive smoking in pregnancy. PATIENTS AND METHODS We compared absolute nucleated RBC counts taken during the first 12 hours of life in 2 groups of term, vaginally delivered infants, 1 group born to mothers who were routin...
