Filter by:Retinal tissue parameters of pediatric patients with vitamin D deficiency will be evaluated in this prospective case-control study. The patients will be divided into 2 groups according to the vitamin D level. Retinal vessel diameters, retinal nerve fiber evaluation, choroidal thickness will be evaluated. Choroidal thinning decrease in retinal artery diameter and increase in retinal vein diameter will be detected in the vitamin D deficiency group.
this is a retrospective cohort, descriptive study, investigating the role of ERAS protocols, in pediatric surgery and evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of implementing these protocols
Sedation or anaesthesia is necessary to be able to perform magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) on children who cannot keep still or are uncooperative, and thus the targets of maximum patient safety, successful imaging, and the highest imaging quality can be achieved. There are various drugs for sedation in MRI. A child with Anaesthesia Emergence Delirium (AED) has a state of consciousness which can be described as "irritable, uncompromising, inconsistent, crying inconsistently, wailing, and kicking". The incidence of AED worldwide has been reported to vary between 18% and 80%, depending on the diagnostic criteria used. This difference can usually be explained by the use of different scales and defining criteria. In 2004, Sikich and Lerman developed the Paediatric Anaesthesia Emergence Delirium (PAED) scale, including cognitive evaluation components in addition to agitation behaviours, and the validity and reliability of this scale have been proven. In a study of anaesthesia early delirium in children by Bong et al.7 a score of ≥10 on the PAED scale was shown to have the greatest sensitivity and specificity for the diagnosis of anaesthesia early delirium. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect on the occurrence of emergence delirium, and recovery, of propofol and ketofol in paediatric patients undergoing diagnostic MRI following premedication with intranasal dexmedetomidine and midazolam.
The main objective is to describe the rate of asymptomatic patients after 5 days of effective antibiotic therapy in an uncomplicated febrile urinary tract infection in children between 3 months and 18 years of age.
The aim of this study is to validate a blood test that can identify safe foods for food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome (FPIES). This study proposes a solution to the problems of FPIES by developing a new blood assay that screens a large number of foods (more than 20) in a culture plate. If this blood test is successful it may be able to identify safe foods more quickly. The study will recruit 10 participants that will have more than 2 trigger foods.
This study is being done to see how we can prevent problems caused by movement during the MRI scan. Different ways of doing the scan (techniques) will be tested to see if they are practical and can prevent problems related to motion. For example, changes in the timing of the magnetic field and the radio waves will be examined, and at changes in the way a computer is used to process the images. The new techniques will be compared with the techniques that are usually used.
This study involves evaluating pediatric patients with central lines to determine differences in line complications and quality of life in those with a novel central line securement device (wrap) as compared to those who use a traditional securement device (dressing).
HYPOTHESIS: During anesthetic pre-oxygenation with high FiO2, pulmonary atelectasis occur, especially in patients < 6 years old, where FRC and pulmonary closing volume may overlap. New borns and children <1 year old are especially vulnerable. OBJECTIVES: 1. Validate "air test" as a individualized and non-invasive diagnostic method of clinically significant atelectasis in pediatrics. 2. Determine what other factors contribute to atelectasis development in pediatrics METHODS: 30 pediatric patients will be studied with ages ranged between 45 postconceptional weeks and16 years old. Baseline SpO2 and lung ultrasound will be performed for each patient upon arrival at the operating theatre before preoxygenation with FiO2 of 1.0 SpO2 will be measured 15 min after intubation during a 5 min long "air test" trial (FiO2 0.25). lung collapse will be verified by lung ultrasound at the end of the 15 min trial. Lung collapse will be eventually granted upon lung US verification by a blind researcher.
[18F]FTC-146 is a sigma-1 receptor detector and is an experimental radiotracer. Several studies have implicated involvement of sigma-1 receptors in generation and perpetuation of chronic pain conditions, while others are investigating anti sigma-1 receptor drugs for treatment of chronic pain. Using [18F]-FTC-146 and PET/MRI, we hope to learn what is the best approach to identify the source of pain generation and characterize the disease in pediatric patients with chronic pain.
In December 2019, an outbreak of pneumonia of unknown aetiology was first reported in the city of Wuhan, Hubei Province, People's Republic of China. Since then, a novel coronavirus, 2019 novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) has emerged as the most likely causative agent. To date, it has evolved into a pandemic involving over a million cases and thousands of deaths have been identified, including a high burden in countries like Italy, Spain, United Kingdom and the United States. This study aims to investigate the clinical epidemiology of 2019-novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) pandemic in Asia.
