Acute respiratory distress syndrome is a disease of acute onset characterized by hypoxemia and infiltrates on chest radiographs that affects both adults and children of all ages. It is an important cause of respiratory failure in pediatric intensive care units and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Nevertheless, until recently, the definitions and diagnostic criteria for ac...
Polygraphic recordings were made on 10 preterm infants recovering from respiratory distress syndrome and 12 healthy preterm control infants at 40, 52, and 64 weeks' conceptual age to study the influence of respiratory distress syndrome on the development of the sleep apnoea profile. Two significant differences were found: infants with respiratory distress syndrome not only had a lower incidence...
Amniotic fluid phospholipids from 346 patients' specimens were quantified and evaluated against the clinical outcome (i.e., respiratory distress syndrome or normal respiratory function). Concentrations of lecithin, sphingomyelin, phosphatidylglycerol, and the lecithin/sphingomyelin reflectance ratio were evaluated by ordered frequency distribution and stepwise discriminant function analysis. Th...
hypothermia is one of the main causes of neonatal mortality in developing countries. the aim of this prospective study was to determine the relationship between hypothermia at birth and the risk of mortality or morbidity among neonates born in imam hospital in tehran, iran. during a one-year period, body temperature was taken from all newborns using a low-reading rectal thermometer, immediately...
The acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is defined by noncardiogenic pulmonary edema and respiratory failure in the seriously ill patient. The diagnosis is clinical, established by the development of new bilateral pulmonary infiltrates and severe hypoxemia without congestive heart failure (1). The risk for ARDS also depends on both host and etiologic factors. The most common causes are s...
BACKGROUND Surfactant protein abnormalities are rare causes of respiratory distress syndrome. CASE CHARACTERISTICS A late preterm (36 wks) who presented with respiratory distress syndrome. OBSERVATION He was found to be a homozygous for a G to T transversion at the first base in intron 24, of ABCA3 gene which is necessary for lamellar body formation and surfactant production. OUTCOME He d...
Pulmonary surfactant is a substance composed of a lipoprotein complex that is essential to pulmonary function. Pulmonary surfactant proteins play an important role in the structure, function, and metabolism of surfactant; 4 specific surfactant proteins have been identified: surfactant proteins-A, surfactant proteins-B, surfactant proteins-C, and surfactant proteins-D. Clinical, epidemiological,...
There are multiple cardiac etiologies for wheezing and respiratory distress which require a high degree of suspicion for the pediatrician to diagnose. We present a case of a patient with a history of long-standing mild persistent asthma with minimal improvement on controller and bronchodilator therapies who presented to the emergency room with acute respiratory distress. When he demonstrated a ...
OBJECTIVE To review the current support and treatment strategies of the acute respiratory distress syndrome. DATA SOURCES Original data from our research laboratory and from representative scientific articles on acute respiratory distress syndrome and acute lung Injury searched through Medline. SUMMARY OF THE FINDINGS Despite advances in the understanding of the pathogenesis of acute respir...
The phosphatidylcholine (PC) content of the initial endotracheal tube aspirate was measured in 105 infants intubated for resuscitation or for ventilation for respiratory distress syndrome, using high performance liquid chromatography and postcolumn fluorescence derivitization with diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene. Sixty eight had measurable PC. Of the infants who developed respiratory distress syndrom...
