Filter by:About 20-25% of deliveries are by cesarean section. Most are elective with use of regional anesthesia (spinal/epidural). Drop of blood pressure after regional anesthesia is common. It have the risk of reduction of blood flow to the placenta and the fetus. No studies had followed the newborns their first days of live,of mothers who developed hypotension in durins CS.
Hypothesis: Intradialytic blood pressure and dialysis efficacy (in terms of urea removal) improve under electrical muscle stimulation or passive leg movement on a treadmill.
Comparison of short and long term neurological outcome of VLBW infants with and without early onset hypotension required intervention. The cohort includes all VLBW infants born in our institution between January 1997 and December 2000.
The purpose of the study is to test whether hypotensive episodes during dialysis - caused by withdrawal of fluid drom the circulation - can be predicted by means of two harmless monitoring techniques.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the impedance threshold device (ITD) attached to a facemask can increase blood pressure in patients who present to the emergency department with hypotension secondary to hypovolemia. The cause of hypovolemia could be blood loss, sepsis, or dehydration.
The purpose of this study is to determine how blood pressure and blood flow are controlled during head-up tilt in a semi-upright position. In this investigation we are studying blood pressure and blood flow to the brain, with and without a medication which lowers blood pressure (Vasotec). We will determine how persons with a spinal cord injury are able to maintain blood flow to the brain (not get dizzy) as they assume a more upright position and their blood pressure decreases.
Low blood pressure (hypotension) during dialysis afflicts approximately 25% of hemodialysis patients. In this pilot study, we will evaluate the safety and effects of individualizing the sodium concentration in the dialysate according to the patient's own plasma sodium levels. We hypothesize that patients will have less thirst and less weight gain during the intervention leading to easier fluid removal and less episodes of hypotension.
The aim of this investigation is to determine the blood pressure response to NOS inhibition, with L-NAME, in persons with tetraplegia compared to non-SCI control subjects and to establish if blood pressure can be increased while upright in those with tetraplegia. If blood pressure is increased with NOS inhibition in persons with tetraplegia, this would improve our treatment of the condition of low blood pressure during seated postures in individuals with tetraplegia.
Hypothermia leads to increased morbidity and mortality. Heat loss mainly occurs during anesthesia and surgery. Therefore prevention of hypothermia in pediatric patients undergoing general anesthesia is very important. However, there is very little information about effectiveness of various insulating materials used in the operating room. Objective: To compare the effectiveness of cotton and plastic for prevent intraoperative hypothermia in pediatric patients.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the processing of cannabis, and to investigate the occurrence of effects of cannabis on the cardiovascular system and the central nervous system; at higher levels of exposure.
