Methylxanthines have been prescribed in preterm infants to treat and prevent Apnea of Prematurity (AOP), for extubation success, for reduction of incidence of BPD, need for treatment of PDA, retinopathy of prematurity, IVH, and for neuroprotective effects. Caffeine is the most common drug of choice.
The recent recognition of the opioid crisis has prompted a nationwide search for alternative postoperative analgesia regimens, especially in the field of plastic and reconstructive surgery where patients exhibit a significant risk of persistent opioid use afterward.
As such, the contemporary facial

INTRODUCTION Background Mechanical ventilation (MV) is one of the most important risk factors for the development of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in the preterm infant, due to the early pulmonary inflammation from volume- and baro-trauma and the secondary 1. Despite this, around 80% of infants
Caffeine citrate is one of the most widely used drugs in neonatal intensive care units. It is a respiratory stimulant which has well established therapeutic effects in apnea and facilitation of extubation. Caffeine is an adenosine antagonist ; it blocks selectively A2 receptors and non selective
The postdural puncture headache (PDPH) is a well-documented complication of dural puncture. Depending on a number of factors, the overall incidence of PDPH following unintended dural puncture with an epidural placement needle is typically around 50%, but can be as high as 70% for certain
Background Cerebral autoregulation is generally considered to maintain cerebral blood flow (CBF) if mean arterial pressure (MAP) is between 60 and 150 mmHg. Yet, it is controversial whether there is a plateau for CBF. Thus, blood velocity of the middle cerebral artery (MCA Vmean), as an index of
Caffeine is routinely administered to extremely preterm neonates as a respiratory stimulant to prevent or treat apnea of prematurity, or prolonged pauses in breathing in preterm babies. Caffeine, a methylxanthine, is an adenosine receptor antagonist that has the effects of relaxing smooth muscle in
Consumption of energy drinks improve psychomotor performance and alertness. These drinks contain mostly caffeine, taurine and vitamins. Its consumption associated with ethanol may reduce feelings of drunkenness as the stimulant effects of caffeine could counteract the depressing effects of ethanol
The primary hypothesis of the study is that infants who receive an exclusive HM-based diet with the addition of a HM-derived cream caloric (Cream group) will have a shorter length of initial hospital stay compared to infants receiving the standard regimen of an exclusive HM-based diet (Control
Conservative management of OAB includes (NICE, 2006): behavioural therapy (bladder training techniques, prompted voiding, timed voiding…); physical therapy (PFM exercises, Biofeedback, Neuro Muscular Electrical Stimulation…); lifestyle interventions (weight loss, smoking cessation…) and fluid advice
This is a clinical protocol, randomized, crossover, double-blind (patient and data analyst) will be held. The study protocol is registered in clinicalTrials.gov - NCT02398344.
Methods
Individuals with AVE will be recruited from the physical therapy clinics of the Universidade Nove de Julho - Sao
1. OPTIMIST-A TRIAL SUMMARY RESEARCH QUESTION Does administration of exogenous surfactant using a minimally-invasive technique improve outcome in preterm infants 25-28 weeks gestation treated with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP)?
BACKGROUND Nasal CPAP is often very effective in preterm
