متن کاملBidirectional cavopulmonary connection without additional pulmonary blood flow in patients below the age of 6 months.
OBJECTIVE The bidirectional cavopulmonary connection (BCPC) has shown excellent results as an intermediate step towards permanent palliation in functional single ventricle morphology. The optimal timing of the BCPC, though, remains unclear. This investigation focuses on results in a subgroup of patients under 6 months of age. METHODS Between 2001 and 2006, 124 patients received a BCPC followe...
متن کاملComparison of early onset sepsis and community-acquired late onset sepsis in infants less than 3 months of age

Prolonged exclusive breast-feeding (EBF) protects against infection but may increase the risk of iron deficiency (ID)/anaemia (IDA) in vulnerable infants. The aim of the present study was to compare haemoglobin (Hb), serum ferritin (SF), anaemia (Hb < 11 g/L), ID (SF < 12 ...
متن کاملKetorolac tromethamine: stereo-specific pharmacokinetics and single-dose use in postoperative infants aged 2-6 months.
OBJECTIVE We determined the postoperative pharmacokinetics (PK), safety, and analgesic effects of ketorolac in 14 infants (aged <6 months) receiving a single intravenous (IV) administration of racemic ketorolac or placebo. BACKGROUND Information on the PK of ketorolac in infants is limited. Unblinded studies suggest ketorolac may be useful in infants. METHODS This double-blinded, placebo-co...
