Corneal diameter in premature infants.
The size of the cornea is important in the diagnosis of primary infantile glaucoma. Reference values regarding eyes of premature infants are scarce. Such data are of special importance in areas such as the Middle East where infantile glaucoma is common and often evident already at birth. The authors have measured the horizontal corneal diameter of the eyes of 127 premature Saudi infants with a ...
متن کاملTransient atrial flutter in premature infants.
A preterm newborn of 34 weeks gestational age and birth weight of 1900 g was referred for a cardiology evaluation due to having a tendency to tachycardia since birth (heart rate approximately 160 beats/min) without tachycardic stimulants. From his sixth day of life, he frequently experienced a heart rate over 190 beats/min with no haemodynamic repercussions. On ECG (Figure) we observed P-waves ...
متن کاملAnalysis of the horizontal corneal diameter, central corneal thickness, and axial length in premature infants.
PURPOSE To determine the horizontal corneal diameter, central corneal thickness, and axial length in premature infants. METHODS Infants with a birth weight of less than 2,500 g or with a gestation period of less than 36 weeks were included in the study. Infants with retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) were allocated to Group 1 (n=138), while those without ROP were allocated to Group 2 (n=236). A...
متن کاملForward scattering properties of corneal haze.
PURPOSE Corneal haze is a well-known pathology associated with decreased corneal transparency and increased ocular scattering. Clinically, haze is typically estimated as the amount of backscattered light observed in a slit lamp examination while the small angle forward scattering cannot be directly observed. It was the purpose of this study to demonstrate a single-pass technique to objectively ...
متن کاملThe Effect of Implementing a Discharge Program on Quality of Life of Mothers with Premature Infants
Background:Quality of life is low among mothers of premature infants; therefore, developing a post-discharge care program can be effective. Aim: This study aimed to investigate the effect of implementing a discharge program on the quality of life of mothers with premature infants. Method: This randomized, controlled, clinical trial was conducted on 60 mothers with premature infants in the neona...
