BACKGROUND: In the presence of meconium in amniotic fluid, childbirth is usually classified as a high-risk group, which leads to an expansion indications for operative delivery. Also literature there are increase frequency birth child state asphyxia, with premature rupture fluid.
 AIM: The aim this study determine significance influence color fluid and duration anhydrous period on asphyxia...

Full-term infants with early-stage brain injuries from asphyxia were examined with two-dimensional ultrasound and color Doppler to assess the use of ultrasound in evaluating early brain injuries after neonatal asphyxia. The sonographic features of ultrasound and color Doppler were compared to those of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Ultrasound was used to monitor the brain parenchyma, lateral...

OBJECTIVE To identify avoidable factors contributing to neonatal morbidity and mortality due to "birth asphyxia" and to ascertain if hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) alone could act as a good marker for avoidable factors associated with "birth asphyxia". SETTING Kalafong Hospital, South Africa, a regional hospital unit that caters for mainly indigent urban population but also receives re...

a 45-year-old prisoner violently inserted a 30 cm bottle into his rectum in the prison. he complained of lower abdominal fullness and inability to pass stool. his vital signs were stable and the abdominal examination did not reveal any peritoneal sign. multiple longitudinal ulcer like anal fissures were also remarkable in different positions of the anal wall extending to the rectum. attempts we...

Using a model of birth asphyxia, we previously reported significant structural and functional deficits in the diaphragm muscle in spiny mice, deficits that are prevented by supplementing the maternal diet with 5% creatine from mid-pregnancy. The long-term effects of this exposure are unknown. Pregnant spiny mice were fed control or 5% creatine-supplemented diet for the second half of pregnancy,...

Birth asphyxia is often associated with a high seizure burden that is predictive of poor neurodevelopmental outcome. The mechanisms underlying birth asphyxia seizures are unknown. Using an animal model of birth asphyxia based on 6-day-old rat pups, we have recently shown that the seizure burden is linked to an increase in brain extracellular pH that consists of the recovery from the asphyxia-in...

Every year, 3 million newborns die within the first month of life. Birth asphyxia and other breathing-related conditions are a leading cause of mortality during the neonatal phase. Current diagnostic methods are too sophisticated in terms of equipment, required expertise, and general logistics. Consequently, early detection of asphyxia in newborns is very difficult in many parts of the world, e...

The aim of this study was to establish the outcome of very severe birth asphyxia in a group of babies intensively resuscitated at birth. 48 infants, born between 1966 and 1971 inclusive, were selected; 15 were apparently stillborn and 33 had not established spontaneous respirations by 20 minutes after birth. One-half of them died, but 3 to 7 years later three-quarters of the survivors are appar...
