Filter by:Pediatrician does physical examination through telemedicine and in real life to see whether the telemedicine consultation corresponds with the real life examination. Goal is to determine: 1. Check practical feasability 2. Check whether there are no great objections for a larger study (ie. in case telemedicine consultation is much more unreliable to do a physical examination a larger study is deemed unsafe)
The VRS (Respiratory Syncytial Virus) study group in Lyon is a working that aims to understand, predict and prevent the burden of disease caused by human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection in infants. Incidence of RSV-associated hospitalization in the first year of life was estimated at 14.5 (95% CI 13.4-15.6) per 1000 births in a cohort study in Lyon, France. Related direct medical annual costs were estimated for this cohort at 364,269€, mostly attributed to children born during the RSV season (231,959€) and children born premature (108,673€). This study will combine existing hospital specimens and databases to determine the respective role of socio demographic factors, clinical risk factors, level of cord specific antibody at birth, and virus characteristic in the Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) Hospitalization outcome in Infants. Regarding the introduction of a new RSV vaccine and RSV-specific neutralizing antibodies, these data are of prime importance to guide future vaccine policies.
Bronchiolitis obliterans (BO) is the well-known manifestation of the chronic pulmonary graft-versus-host disease(GVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). The pathophysiology of BO is, however, poorly known. The available data strongly support the role of respiratory viruses, in particular paramyxoviruses (parainfluenzae virus (PIV), respiratory syncytial virus, metapneumovirus). It is likely that the alloimmune response triggered by the respiratory virus is inadequate and leads to the peribronchiolar fibrotic process. The objective is to analyze the kinetics of profiles of the blood and respiratory host responses resulting from a high or low parainfluenza respiratory infection, in order to evaluate if the occurrence of a BO is associated with a specific signature We will evaluate the predictive signature of a BO after a parainfluenza virus infection by characterizing the differences between the patients evolving and those not evolving to a BO at 2 months after the infection.
The development of bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) and other late onset non-infectious pulmonary complications (LONIPCs) following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is associated with a significantly worse prognosis, high disease burden, and excessive health resource utilization. In this proposal, the investigators plan to examine and compare different diagnostic modalities which can provide detailed physiological and anatomical characterization of LONIPCs.
Predicting the risk of allergenic sensitizations and asthma development in the first year of life is difficult. Investigator decided to follow prospectively two cohorts of infants with acute bronchiolitis, hospitalized or treated at home, from the epidemic seasons of 2011-2012 and 2015-2017 to know their respiratory evolution, especially if they developed allergen sensitization and / or asthma.
Acute bronchiolitis is a viral infection that occurs in children most commonly in the first 2 years of life and is characterized by respiratory symptoms, resulting in wheezing and/or crackles upon auscultation. It is usually a self limiting illness. However, this condition may be associated with several severe complications, such as apnea,respiratory failure, or secondary bacterial infection
It is decided to perform a prospective study in a non-selected population of infants with bronchiolitis during one year ( October.2018 to October.2019) to study the characteristics, clinical course and outcome of the use of Non invasive ventilation in the management and compare the results with those treated with invasive ventilation to assess safety and efficacy and inform guideline construction.
The aim of the present study is to evaluate the efficacy of steroid therapy and hospital stay in patients with acute bronchiolitis at assiut university children hospital.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate prospectively the clinical benefits of 2 different flow with High flow nasal canula (HFNC: 2l/kg/min) versus (HFNC: 2l/kg/min) in the initial management of bronchiolitis in infants. Design: Prospective, controlled, randomized, multi-center. Design: Infants less than 6 month admitted in pediatric intensive care unit for respiratory distress (mWCAS >3) secondary to bronchiolitis but not requiring mechanical ventilation will be randomized in two groups:HFNC "2l/min/kg" or HFNC "3l/min/kg" during 24 hours. Conditions of measurements: Primary endpoint: Proportion of failure in both arms during the first 24 hours. Failure criteria: A raise of the Clinical score for respiratory distress (mWCAS) (1 point) or respiratory rate (10/min /H0 and above 60/min) or discomfort (EDIN) (1point /H0 and above 4) or apnea. Secondary outcomes: Assessment at H1, H12, H24 of mWCAS, respiratory and heart rate, EDIN score, skin lesions, FiO2 required to achieve an oxygen saturation between 94 and 97%, transcutaneous PCO2 (correlated to an initial gas analysis), Report SpO2 / FiO2 Statistic: Intention to treat Analysis. Expected number of patients: 135 per arm: 270 children.
Bronchiolitis is one of the main reasons for consultation in primary care and emergency services, as well as the leading cause of hospitalization for lower respiratory tract infection in children under two years. There is still no consensus on the medical management of the disease, in clinical practice there is wide variability in the treatment with inhaled drugs and / or oral bronchodilators, steroids, antihistamines despite the viral etiology of the disease, which results in increased morbidity and a major economic benefit for all health services. Several studies are in relation to the management of bronchiolitis, one of which was made during 2014 in the Naval Hospital of High Specialty which included 90 participants comparing 3 treatment. The treatments administered were: dexamethasone and epinephrine (Levogira) (ED), hypertonic saline 3% (SSH 3%)and saline 0.9% ( SS 0.9%), finding that the handling of ED and SSH 3% had lower rates of hospital admissions compared to the symptomatic management of SS 0.9%. Although the superiority of SSH3% and ED in relation to the use of SS 0.9% was demonstrated, it was not possible to establish difference statistically significant between them. Why it was considered necessary to continue the study focused on determining the difference in the effectiveness of ED and SSH 3%. Therefore, the purpose of this investigation is to determine whether there is a difference between the use of dexamethasone and epinephrine versus hypertonic saline (3%).
