Congenital tuberculosis is a rare and often fatal disease. This report concerned a premature infant in whom the disease was found after postpartum diagnosis in the mother. Use of endotracheal tube aspirates to diagnose tuberculosis in the infant is a unique feature of this case.
Adaptation to extrauterine life involves the newborn infant in a series of biological adjustments to a totally new set of environmental conditions. Prime among these is the accommodation to a thermal environment that, in all but the most tropical countries, represents a distinctly "cold" challenge. The failure to accommodate to this cold stress has historically been recognized as perhaps the ea...
Advances in neonatal intensive care have significantly improved the survival rate of premature infants in the past two decades. Modern medical technology has continued to push back the limits of mortality, resulting in more aggressive interventions so that infants as young as 23 weeks gestation with weights as low as 500 grams may now survive (Szatmari, Saigal, Rosenbaum & Campbell, 1994). Data...
The aims of this study were to examine and compare the development of parenting cognitions and principles in mothers following preterm and term deliveries. Parenting cognitions about child development, including thinking that is restricted to single causes and single outcomes (categorical thinking) and thinking that takes into account multiple perspectives (perspectivist thinking), have been sh...
ABSTRACT: The emotional distress resulting from the experience of giving birth to a preterm infant (gestational age , 37 weeks) and the subsequent neonatal unit hospitalisation may be a traumatic experience for parents. In the present systematic literature review, studies on parental posttraumatic symptomatology following birth of a premature infant were reviewed. A total of 5 studies were iden...
INTRODUCTION Respiratory syncytial virus is a common neonatal pathogen. Here we present a case of a premature, low birth weight infant who contracted respiratory syncytial virus and developed a severe pulmonary hemorrhage. CASE PRESENTATION A 12-day-old Asian male, former 30 week premature infant with a birth weight of 1025 grams presented with nasal secretions, episodes of desaturations and ...
Inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) has been used successfully in select term and near-term infants with respiratory failure. The use of iNO in the premature infant population, however, remains controversial. This article will review some of the current literature regarding the use of iNO in premature infants and discuss current recommendations and future research directions.
A case of adenomatoid hamartoma in a premature male infant is described and the recent literature is reviewed. The present case demonstrates the frequently associated features of maternal hydramnios of late onset, and premature delivery with foetal respiratory difficulty and anasarca.
Elizabethkingia meningoseptica is a multi-drug resistant organism that can cause meningitis in premature neonates. We report a case of Elizabethkingia meningoseptica meningitis that was detected early in an extremely premature low birth weight infant. He was successfully treated with a combination of ciprofloxacin and piperacillin-tazobactam. The spread of infection was controlled with no other...
