Filter by:According to recent studies, we want to find evidences that infant colics could be a episodic symptom associated to migraine as cyclic vomiting syndrome or abdominal migraine are. The main purpose is to compare the presence of colics in infants between 60 days and 180 days of life and the presence of migraine in their parents to determine if colicky children's parents are more migrainous than other parents.
The hypothesis of the study is that lidocaine will be as effective as ketorolac in decreasing patient's perception of pain as measured by the 10 point Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). The aim of the study is to compare the safety & efficacy of lidocaine versus ketorolac for acute pain secondary to renal colic in the Emergency Department (ED).
This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of Lactobacillus reuteri DSM17938 supplementation on infantile colic in Indonesian infants.
Infantile colic (IC) criteria includes all of the following in subjects aged ≤ 4 months: paroxysms of irritability, fussing, or crying that start and stop without obvious cause; episodes lasting 3 or more hours per day and occurring at least 3 days per week for at least 1 week; and no failure to thrive. The condition is very common in the first 4 months of life (10-30 % of infants) with a peak prevalence at 6-8 weeks and is characterized by excessive and inconsolable crying without an identifiable cause. Infantile colic cause considerable stress for the baby and the family, huge medical expenses (the IC cause 10-20 % of all pediatric visits in the first 4 months of life) and frequent formula changes. The pathophysiology of IC is still poorly defined, but differences in gut microbiota composition seem to be involved. In particular, differences in the number and species of Lactobacilli spp, Klebsiella spp and Escherichia coli spp have been demonstrated in subjects with IC, and it has been postulated that these alterations could be responsible for an abnormal gas production within gut lumen resulting in distension and abdominal pain. These findings suggest the potential role of probiotics as preventive and therapeutic strategy for the IC.
The aim of this study is the comparison of efficacy of intravenous ketorolac and intranasal desmopressin in renal colic patients pain control.
Prospective single centre study aiming at validating a conditional imaging strategy for diagnosis of suspected kidney stone. Consecutive Emergency department patients referred to the medical imaging department for exploration of a suspected acute uncomplicated renal colic will undergo the following interventions : systematic plain abdominal Xray, systematic ultrasonography and systematic unenhanced CT (with a reduced dose scan), in addition to clinical examination and assessment of body mass index and the Sex, Timing, Origin, Nausea, Erythrocytes (STONE) clinical prediction score for symptomatic stone. Patients will be followed up at 1 month to record the need for urologic intervention and its type. The performances of different conditional imaging strategy for the diagnosis of suspected renal colic will be assessed retrospectively. The conditional strategies tested will be based on the patient's stone score and BMI and targeted use of combined plain X-ray and ultrasonography and/or unenhanced CT. The reference diagnosis for renal colic will be made according to the finding of a ureteral stone or indirect signs of urolithiasis at unenhanced CT.
The aim of the study is to elucidate the relationship between postnatal antibiotic administration on development of gut microbiota and possible protective influence of simultaneously administration of probiotic during antibiotic therapy on development of gut microbiota, functional gastrointestinal disorders of infancy, weight gain and body composition.
The objective of this study is to determine an efficacy of the combination of L. rhamnosus 19070-2 (FloraActiveTM) and L. reuteri DSM 122460 (FloraActiveTM) in decreasing cry/fuss in infants aged 4 through 12 weeks with IC. The active group of infants will receive lactobacilli with vitamin D3 while the control group will receive vitamin D3 2 times daily as oil suspension for 28 days. Duration of infant fuss/cry will be measured at baseline and at the end of intervention to define a difference between the groups
Infant colic (IC) is responsible of 25% of pediatric consultation in the first 3-4 months of life affecting from 5% to 30% of infants between 2 weeks and 3 months of life (3, 4). The variability in the prevalence of IC reported by the several studies depends on different criteria used to define IC.The etiology of IC remains still unclear. Recently, the composition of intestinal microbiome has been addressed as an independent risk factor for IC. There are no uniform criteria for a specific therapeutic approach of IC. Based on these conclusions the objectives of our study are: to determine whether the administration of a partially hydrolyzed formula (pHF) with reduced lactose content and Lactobacillus reuteri, is beneficial in IC in reducing the infant crying duration and in prolonging the duration of sleeping period
The study is prospective, double blinded, randomised controlled and has the purpose to compare the analgesic effects of ketorolac or morphine intravenous in renal colic.
