background: both vitamin d deficiency and hypertension are prevalent in the general population. several observations indicate an association between vitamin d deficiency and high blood pressure. the present case-control study aimed to compare serum 25-hydroxyvitamin d (25-ohd) in hypertensive patients versus healthy controls. methods: one hundred patients aged 30-60 years with hypertension (htn...

We studied the association between the prenatal diets of 212 mothers assessed by a semiquantitative food frequency questionnaire and the blood pressure of their infants. Prenatal potassium, calcium, and magnesium intakes were measured and adjusted for total caloric intake. Infant blood pressure was measured at 2-3 days and at 1, 6, and 12 months of age by using an ultrasonic-auscultatory device...

AIM To determine if cerebral blood flow velocity increases during all types of neonatal seizure, and whether the effect is due solely to an increase in blood pressure, transmitted to the cerebral circulation when autoregulation is impaired. METHODS Seizures were diagnosed in 11 high risk neonates using cotside 16 channel video-EEG polygraphy. EEG, cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFV) using tra...

Non-nutritive sucking and oral uptake of glucose 25% are often non-pharmacological methods used to manage procedural pain in newborns. Aim: To compare the effect using non-nutritive suction (NNS) Sol.Glucosae for reducing/eliminating neonatal due heel prick. Material methods: Term infants were studied: group (A), NNS, n = 40, (B) 25%, 40. The severity was assessed Neonatal Facial Coding System ...

Background: Sepsis is a major cause of mortality in neonatal. Diagnosing neonatal sepsis challenge, as its clinical symptoms are not specific. Various studies have been conducted to identify infection markers for early identification sepsis, but none shown satisfactory results. Therefore, we aimed determine the validity eosinophil count and monocyte lymphocyte ratio (MLR) detection sepsis. Obje...

BACKGROUND Pre-eclampsia (PE) is defined as hypertension (blood pressure of 140/90 mm Hg on two occasion 4-6 hour apart or single reading of diastolic blood pressure of >110 mm Hg) and proteinuria developing after 20 weeks of pregnancy up to 6 weeks post partum in previously normotensive, non-proteinuric women. The aim of this study was to determine the neonatal outcome in babies born ofpre-ecl...

Pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH) is a common disease in obstetrics with high incidence in our country. Nursing theory and model study tended to personalization according to patients, thus personalized care became the hotspot in nursing discipline. This study aimed to carry out personalized obstetric care based on PIH women’s psychological and physiological characteristics to decrease the in...

Introduction: If the blood pressure of a pregnant woman is ≥140/90 mmHg at the clinic, but her ambulatory blood pressure is less <135/85 mmHg at daytime and <125/75 at night and her average ambulatory in 24 hours is <130/80 mmHg, her high blood pressure at clinic is considered white coat hypertension. Objectives: To evaluate the value of ambulatory blood pressure monitoring in pregnant women. P...

Abstract In general use of an automatic sphygmomanometer is essential to generate small and stable pressure during the rapid expansion bladder cuff. The generated by simulator should simulate human blood such as simulation for infant, neonatal adult or conditions normal, hypertension, hypotension. system consists three combinations generation, a dc motor rough air cylinder maintaining stabiliza...

The objective was Ephedrine, Mephentermine, and Phenylephrine was compared in the treatment of maternal hypotension following spinal anesthesia for elective cesarean delivery. The Design was Randomized, double-blind trial and Setting in Obstetric suite at a university-affiliated hospital. The Patients were sixty healthy patients electively scheduled for cesarean delivery under spinal anesthesia...
