This study presented perioperative management of children with epidermolysis bullosa
Abstract:
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Epidermolysis bullosa is a rare, genetically determined disorder characterized by excessive susceptibility of the skin and mucosa to separate from the underlying tissues after mechanical trauma. Patients suffering from this disease may have multiple medical problems, but the risk of anaesthesia is attributed mainly to oropharyngeal involvement; airway more...

The aim of this study was to investigate use of video recordings of newborn infants to determine colour and oxygen saturation
Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: Use of video recordings of newborn infants to determine: (1) if clinicians agreed whether infants were pink; and (2) the pulse oximeter oxygen saturation (Spo(2)) at which infants first looked pink. METHODS: Selected clips from video recordings of infants taken immediately after delivery were shown to medical and nursing staff. The infants received varying degrees of more...

This study aimed to explore current resusucition practices in neonatal units in maternity units in Ireland
Abstract:
New evidence-based guidelines have been launched with recommendations that may impact how resuscitations, particularly of LBW infants, are enacted. AIM: to determine current resuscitation practices in Maternity units in Ireland and benchmarked these results to a recent study in the United States. METHODS: A 20-question survey was developed and mailed to a lead more...

The aim of this study was to examine the effects of air travel on oxygen saturation in general populations
Abstract:
Air travel has increased steadily over the last decade, and its effect on the health of passengers has been the subject of much debate. There is a paucity of evidence on the effects of air travel on oxygen saturation in general populations. The peripheral oxygen saturation and pulse rate of 84 passengers, aged 1-78 years, were measured by pulse oximetry at round level and altitude more...
