Hyaline membrane disease. II. Lung lecithin.
Boughton, K., Gandy, G., and Gairdner, D. (1970). Archives of Disease in Childhood, 45, 311. Hyaline membrane disease. H: Lung lecithin. The lecithin content of lung, together with its surface tension properties, were determined in 34 stillbirths, and 61 neonatal deaths. Lecithin content ranged widely from 1-5 to 18 6% of dry lung tissue. In 24 cases the 'palmitic-lecithin' was also measured; i...
متن کاملPrevention of Hyaline Membrane Disease
The high mortality of respiratory distress syndrome in premature infants and the relative ineffectiveness of treatment' make two recent reports of special interest. They are clinical studies2 3 which attempt to clarify the role of corticosteroids in prevention and treatment. New forms of treatment for this puzzling disorder have sometimes been introduced without adequate trials, so that it is h...
متن کاملAssisted Ventilation in Terminal Hyaline Membrane Disease.
Goldsmith and Karotkin' researched the history of assisted ventilation and found that a record of mouth to mouth methods goes back to Old Testament times, and Hippocrates himself reported his experience with tracheal intubation to support pulmonary function. These skills were ignored for about 2000 years as it was not until the 16th century that attention was again paid to this subject when bel...
متن کاملHyaline membrane disease, alkali, and intraventricular haemorrhage.
The relation between intraventricular haemorrhage (IVH) and hyaline membrane disease (HMD) was studied in singletons that came to necropsy at Hammersmith Hospital over the years 1966-73. The incidence of IVH in singleton live births was 3-22/1000 and of HMD 4-44/1000. Although the high figures were partily due to the large number of low birthweight infants born at this hospital, the incidence o...
متن کاملArtificial surfactant therapy in hyaline-membrane disease.
Ten preterm infants severely ill with hyaline-membrane disease (HMD) were given artificial surfactant endotracheally. Oxygenation and alveolar-arterial oxygen gradients improved, the levels of inspired oxygen and peak respirator pressure could be reduced, and many of the radiological abnormalities resolved. Acidosis and systemic hypotension were also reversed. In nine infants a patent ductus ar...
