Download or read book Asphyxia in Neonates written by Miljana Z. Jovandaric and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2024-04-26 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In severe asphyxia, lipid peroxidation occurs. Neonatal lipid concentration may indicate the severity of asphyxia and be a reason for needing cooling therapy. Asphyxia in Neonates describes the results of research into the impact oxygen deficits in neonates. The physiological consequences of asphyxiated newborn infants include changes in the pH of plasma and changes in lipid concentrations. These changes can result in apoptosis, loss of cell membrane integrity, and damage to the brain. Features Reviews pathophysiology of asphyxia Describes the influence of asphyxia on lipids concentrations Summarizes the weight distribution of neonates with asphyxia based on lipid concentration Illustrates the use of lipids as an indicator of prognosis following asphyxia Provides guidance for lipids parameters in cooling therapy

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Obstetricians and pediatricians in daily practice will find here the answersand explanations they need concerning the major problem of perinatal asphyxia. Leading experts in pediatrics, obstetrics and neurophysiology havecome together to produce a single sourcebook covering all aspects of thesubject. Biochemical mechanisms and clinical aspects of perinatal asphyxia, fetal and neonatal assessment, and perinatal management are thoroughly discussed. Neurodevelopmental outcome is another important issue addressed. In light of newer technologies, the prognosis of infants suffering from asphyxia is examined. Many figures and typicalcases are provided, making the book easy to use and providing quick access to solutions. The reader can easily identify a problem in the fetus and its subsequent development. With such knowledge, the improved managementof perinatal asphyxia is made possible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this book is to transmit the message that asphyxia is the major cause of infant mortality in the ne asphyxia-if severe, caus onatal period. The sequelae of ing cerebral palsy; if mild, leading to MBD to seizures are all potential risks. It is important to make young physicians and nurses aware of this complication of the birth period, how to avoid it, and how to treat it. Facilitating such awareness is the chief purpose of this book. Alberto Lacoius-Petruccelli New York 7 Contents 1.

Download or read book Neonatal Neural Rescue written by A. David Edwards and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2013-04-04 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Worldwide more than one million babies die annually from perinatal asphyxia and its associated complications such as neonatal encephalopathy – one of the major causes of cerebral palsy and cognitive deficiencies in children aside from prematurity. Cooling the head – or the entire body – minimizes neuronal death, enabling the neonatal brain to be 'rescued' thus greatly improving developmental outcomes. Hypothermic neural rescue therapy has revolutionized the treatment of this condition and is a major recent achievement in neonatal medicine. This landmark book provides a brief scientific underpinning of hypothermic neural rescue therapy and lays out the evidence base for good practice. Internationally recognized authorities give practical advice, drawn from personal experience, on how to deliver hypothermia in the neonatal intensive care unit. A valuable addition to any neonatal unit, this is essential reading for neonatologists, neonatal nurses and paediatric neurologists.

Book excerpt: Despite the continuous effort from the scientific community and the advancements in neonatal intensive care, hypoxic-ischaemic brain injury of term and near-term infants remains a significant problem throughout the world. After asphyxia, infants may suffer from long-term neurological sequelae, including death, cerebral palsy, learning difficulties, epilepsy and other significant cognitive, developmental and behavioural problems in 40% of survivors. This book discusses the risk factors, prevalence and neurological impacts of asphyxia.

Download or read book Birth Asphyxia and the Brain written by Steven M. Donn and published by Wiley-Blackwell. This book was released on 2002-06-24 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text presents a state-of-the-art review of asphyxial brain injury to the foetus and new born, a leading source of both neonatal mortality and long-term neurologic disability. Beginning with an historical overview of birth-related injury, followed by an epidemiologic review of the relationship of birth injury to later neuromotor disability, it provides a detailed analysis and exhaustive review of each aspect. The contributors are among the most knowledgeable international authorities in the field; they have synthesized a uniformity of medical and scientific quality, clarity of style, and thoroughness of scope. Continual emphasis is placed on the material's relevance and usefulness to clinicians; equally important is the emphasis on communication between clinicians and basic neuroscientists. The task of paediatricians and neonatologists in coming years will be to better understand the mechanism of brain damage, the prediction of disability, and the introduction of efficacious neuroprotective strategies. To that end, this volume deserves wide recognition by physicians in all disciplines related to neonatal care, including paediatricians, neonatologists, neurologists, obstetricians, family practitioners, nurses and legal counsel.

Download or read book Reducing Birth Defects written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2003-10-27 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each year more than 4 million children are born with birth defects. This book highlights the unprecedented opportunity to improve the lives of children and families in developing countries by preventing some birth defects and reducing the consequences of others. A number of developing countries with more comprehensive health care systems are making significant progress in the prevention and care of birth defects. In many other developing countries, however, policymakers have limited knowledge of the negative impact of birth defects and are largely unaware of the affordable and effective interventions available to reduce the impact of certain conditions. Reducing Birth Defects: Meeting the Challenge in the Developing World includes descriptions of successful programs and presents a plan of action to address critical gaps in the understanding, prevention, and treatment of birth defects in developing countries. This study also recommends capacity building, priority research, and institutional and global efforts to reduce the incidence and impact of birth defects in developing countries.
