Objective To summarize the experience of open heart operation on neonates with critical and complex congenital heart diseases and evaluate the methods of perioperative management. Methods From May 2001 to January 2003, 12 patients of neonates with congenital heart diseases underwent emergency operation. Their operating ages ranged from 6 to 30 days, the body weights were 2.8 to 4.5 kg. Their diagnoses included D-transposition of the great arteries in 4 cases, ventricular septal defect with atrial septal defect in 5 cases, complete atrioventricular septal defect, obstructed supracardiac total anomalous pulmonary venous drainage and cardiac rhabdomyomas in 1 case respectively. 12 cases were operated under moderate or deep hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass. Results All cases were observed in ICU for 2-11 days and discharged 7-19 days after operation. The postoperative complications included low cardiac output, mediastinal infection, respiratory distress syndrome, systemic capillary leak syndrome and acute renal failure. All cases were cured and the follow-up (from 6 months to 2 years) showed satisfactory outcome. Conclusion A particular cardiopulmonary bypass and proper perioperative management is very important to ensure the successful outcome. Peritoneal dialysis is an effective and safe method for treating acute renal failure after cardiac operation in neonates.
Objective To evaluate the relationship between the severity of neonatal infection and the activity change of cardiac enzyme. Methods A total of 102 infectious neonates in NICU were evaluated with neonatal serious illness scoring system and then divided into non-critical, critical, and extremely-critical groups. The activity of such serum myocardial enzymes as AST, ALT, LDH, CK, and CKMB was tested in the first 24 hours on admission. Comparison between groups and analyses were conducted. Resultes Myocardial enzyme of the critical and extremely-critical groups was obviously higher than that of the non-critical group (Plt;0.01). Conclusion The serious illness score of infectious neonates is closely associated with the activity change of myocardial enzyme and the level of serum myocardial enzymes has certain advantages in judging the myocardial injury and the disease severity of neonatal infection.
Objective To investigate the incidence of retinopathy of prematuri ty (ROP) in the area of Shanghai, and to provide the preliminary data for the ev aluation of present criteria for ROP screening. Methods Record s of 289 prematur e infants who had undergone ROP screening from the four NICU in Shanghai between February 2004 and January 2005 were analyzed. Screening criteria included prete rm infants or low birth weight (LBW) infants with BW of 2000g or less. The first examination starts at 4 to 6 weeks chronologic age or 32 weeks post conceptual age. Results In the 289 screened infants, 19 had developed acu te ROP. There we re 3 threshold ROP, 7 prethreshold ROP and 9 developed ROP less than prethreshol d. The incidence of ROP was 6.6%. According to the British recommended guideline s(BWle;1500 g or GAle;31 weeks), only 119 out of 289 needed screening and one ca se of stage 1 ROP was missed; the incidence of ROP was 15.1% (18/119). When lowered sc reening criteria to the American guidelines(BWle;1500g or GAle;28 weeks), t here were only 83 infants needed screening, and we missed 2 stage 1 and 1 prethreshold ROP and the incidence of ROP was 19.3% (16/83). Conclusions The i ncidence of ROP i s 6.6% according to our study. It is lower than other reports and it has somethi ng to do with our present screening guideline. Further epidemiological data are needed to modify the guideline accordingly.
In 1984, according to the criteria of the classifieation for congenital hand deformity which wasput out by the International Hand Surgery Committee, we had made an investigation for congenitalhand deformity among 318066 newborns in Shanghai. It was found that the inctdence of a congenitalhand malformation was 0. 0808 percent among the total newborns. The congenital malformation ofthe thumb was 37. 74 percent of all deformities of the hand. According to the statistical analysis, we ...

目的:探讨引起早产的原因和影响预后的因素。方法:对我院126例早产进行回顾性分析。结果:早产发生率为5.0%,胎膜早破(PROM)、妊娠高血压综合征(PIH)是引起早产的主要因素。剖宫产与阴道分娩对早产儿结局无明显差异。破膜时间12h内和12h以上两组间宫内感染发生率差异无统计学意义。结论:早产儿预后与早产病因相关。不同分娩方式对新生儿结局没有影响。
Objective To investigate the incidence and risk factors associated with the development of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) in Hubei province. MethodsFrom July 2009 to May 2011, 313 premature infants (626 eyes) with gestational age less than 37 weeks were examined by indirect ophthalmoscopy and RetCamⅡ as part of ROP screening.Two hundred infants were male and 113 were female. Their birth weight was from 890 to 3500 grams, with a mean of (1977.37±497.03) grams. Their gestational age was from 26 to 37 weeks, with a mean of (33.13±2.44) week. The infants were divided into ROP group and non-ROP group according to the results of screening. All infants were followed up until retinopathy was stable or received laser therapy as the requirements of prevention and control guidelines of ROP. The sex, gestational age, birth weight, delivery mode, IVF baby, multiple pregnancy, oxygen therapy, intrauterine hypoxia, eclampsia, threatened abortion, oxygen history of infants, respiratory distress syndrome, hypoxicischemic encephalopathy, jaundice, and blueray radiation therapy in two groups were statistically analyzed. ResultsIn 313 infants (626 eyes), ROP developed in 52 infants (16.61%) and 87 eyes (13.90%), which including 2 eyes suffering from AP-ROP, 38 eyes from stage 1, 36 eyes from stage 2, 11 eyes from stage 3. There were 261 infants (83.39%) and 539 eyes (8610%) in nonROP group. Eleven infants (20 eyes) received laser therapy. The results of statistical analysis showed that gestation age(t=-4.348), birth weight (t=-3.966), oxygen therapy (χ2=9.05;OR=3.403, 95%CI=1.475 - 7.854) were significantly related to ROP (P<0.05).ConclusionThe incidence of ROP in Hubei province is 16.61%. The gestation age, birth weight and oxygen therapy are closely related to the occurrence of ROP.
Objective To summarize the clinical characteristics, diagnosis and treatment of Bochdalek hernia in neonates and infants. Methods The data of 15 neonates and 10 infants with Bochdalek hernia,undergoing the normal diagnosis and surgical repair from August 1983 to June 2004, were retrospectively reviewed. Location was left in 22 cases and right in 3 cases. Twenty-four cases were treated by operation and 1 case died of respiratory failurebefore operation.Results Before April 1998,7 of 8 (5 neonates,3 infants) cases of Bochdalek hernia stayed healthy and respiratory symptomfree 1 year after operation; they were followed up 1 year and 3 months to 11 years. One premature neonate with Bochdalek hernia died of respiratory failure before operation, and his lung volume was found to be dysplasia. From April 1998 to June 2004, 15(8 neonates,7 infants) of 17 (10 neonates,7 infants)cases of Bochdalek hernia survived postoperatively, while 2 neonates died of respiratory failure. Conclusion The earlier dyspnoea of neonates ofBochdalek hernia occur,the worse their healthy status appear. The standard andtimely surgical repairs could improve the curative ratio. Whether the operationwas suspended depended on the healthy states of babies.
ObjectivesUsing systematic literature review to analyze the effects of levetiracetam (LEV) on neonatal safety during early pregnancy.MethodsThe scope of the literature must be English literature, published from 1997 to 2018. Meta-analysis was performed by random effects models.ResultsSeven literatures were included. A total of 672 cases exposed to LEV in treatment group and 772 234 cases in control groups were selected for meta-analysis. There was no significant difference in neonatal malignancy between treatment group and control group[OR=1.05, 95% CI (0.54, 2.02), P=0.37]. Further, we evaluated the effect of LEV monotherapy and polytherapy on neonatal safety, a total of 464 monotherapy cases and 632 polytherapy cases respectively were selected for meta-analysis. The results showed that there was no significant difference between these two therapies in neonatal malignancy [OR=0.54, 95% CI(0.31, 0.96), P=0.32].ConclusionsAs the papers we included, levetiracetam in the treatment of epilepsy during pregnancy is relatively safe for newborn.
