BACKGROUND
The incidence of respiratory depression in patients who are chemically sedated in the emergency department (ED) is not well understood. As the drugs used for chemical restraint are respiratory depressants, improving respiratory monitoring practice in the ED may be warranted. The objective
Any hospice professional can identify the syndrome known as terminal restlessness, and all would agree that it is extremely distressing to patients as well as their families and caregivers. Often, caregivers cannot ameliorate the anguish many patients experience at life's end. Many clinicians assert
Exposure to isocapnic hypoxia produces an abrupt increase in ventilation [acute hypoxic ventilatory response (AHVR)], which is followed by a subsequent decline [hypoxic ventilatory depression or decline (HVD)]. In cats, both anesthetized and awake, haloperidol has been reported to increase AHVR and
Under conditions of progressive hypoxia, oxygen transport was compared in bar-headed geese (Anser indicus), a species which breeds on the Tibetan Plateau and migrates at altitudes up to 9200 m, and Pekin ducks (Anas platyrhynchos, forma domestica), a similarly sized, sea-level water fowl that does
Pneumonia accounts for nearly half of all admissions amongst children less than 5 years of age to health centres and hospitals in the highlands of Papua New Guinea. Until recently, the indications for the use of oxygen in the management of childhood pneumonia in Papua New Guinea had been confined to
A previously unrecognized, striking movement disorder has been observed in 10 premature infants with severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia. Chronic hypoxemia, hypercarbia, bronchospasm, and inadequate nutrition were present in all. The movement disorder developed from approximately the third postnatal
Shock remains a significant cause of morbidity and potential mortality in the pediatric population. It is defined as a impaired perfusion with a too high oxygen demand in comparison to oxygen delivery. The cause of hypoxia may be found in a hypovolemic condition due to hemorrhage or loss of
A case of fat embolism syndrome is reported following an uncomplicated bone marrow harvest. The presenting symptoms were restlessness, shortness of breath and arterial hypoxemia. A lung perfusion scan ruled out the presence of a lung thromboembolism. The patient received supportive therapy and
BACKGROUND
The auditory brainstem response (ABR) test is used to identify hearing loss and measure hearing thresholds of infants and children who cannot be tested using standard behavioral hearing testing methods. In order for the ABR to yield useful data, a child must be asleep throughout the
BACKGROUND
Hypoxaemia constitutes a possible complication of severe respiratory illness which is often under-reported in developing countries. Therefore, the current study was carried out to determine the prevalence and clinical predictors of hypoxaemia in hospitalized under-five children with
BACKGROUND
Cardiac surgery is perceived to be maximally invasive and fraught with complications. In response to this perception, cardiothoracic surgeons have been refining traditional techniques to minimize their invasive nature. Epidural anesthesia has been used safely and effectively for numerous
OBJECTIVE
to analyze the accuracy of the defining characteristics of the Impaired gas exchange nursing diagnosis in children with acute respiratory infection.
METHODS
open prospective cohort study conducted with 136 children monitored for a consecutive period of at least six days and not more than
Twenty cases of cobra bite in farmers from the central region of Thailand are reported. Ptosis is the earliest sign of cobra bite and is an important diagnostic indication of systemic poisoning. Restlessness, irregular breathing and mental confusion are warning signs of respiratory paralysis.
Anoxia induced by exposure to N(2) gas for 15, 30, 50 and 60 s showed appearance of varying degrees of restlessness, tremor and convulsive behaviour resulting in mortality of adult rats. Diazepam treatment in pre- and post-anoxic conditions (10 and 20 mg/kg, respectively) has been found to decrease
