Effect of Massage on Salivary Cortisol Level in Preterm Neonates
Background: Stress in preterm neonates is associated with morbidity and mortality. Preterm newborns who are in need of special care are at risk of experiencing stress because of separation from the mother, ambient noises, lighting intensity, and medical procedures. Massage is believed to reduce stress through touch stimulation, and the cortisol is one of the indicators of the stress response. T...
متن کاملSalivary theophylline estimation in the management of asthma in children.
Simultaneous sampling was performed to determine whether saliva could replace plasma in the monitoring of theophylline dosages. Forty-eight children with moderate to severe asthma received oral theophylline preparation (usually sustained release) on a daily basis. They provided simultaneous saliva and plasma samples at routine out-patient visits. Saliva and plasma theophylline concentrations sh...
متن کاملOnce a day theophylline; serum concentrations.
Twenty four hour profiles of serum theophylline concentrations were examined in 15 asthmatic children taking a new theophylline preparation once a day. Peak concentrations occurred at a time when nocturnal wheezing is likely. Fluctuation in concentrations throughout the day was greater than with other currently available preparations, but the importance of this has yet to be determined.
متن کاملSerum pentraxin 3 concentrations in neonates
Dear Editor, C-reactive protein (CRP) is one of the most commonly used diagnostic biomarkers in the clinical setting for diagnosing and monitoring of inflammatory and infectious diseases. However, in neonates several questions remain, regarding the interpretation of an increased serum CRP concentration during the first days of life in otherwise healthy newborns, especially in preterms (1). Pent...
متن کاملFree and total plasma theophylline concentrations in chronic airflow obstruction.
It has been suggested that the variability in clinical response between individuals at any given total plasma theophylline concentration may be related to interpatient variability in theophylline plasma protein binding. We therefore measured the plasma protein binding of theophylline in plasma from 39 outpatients with chronic airflow obstruction who were receiving long term oral theophylline tr...
