RESUMO

Focused cardiac ultrasound (FoCUS) can provide critical information quickly to determine the etiology after cardiac arrest and may expedite a diagnosis in order to identify underlying treatable causes. We present a case of reversible acute left ventricular dysfunction after cardiopulmonary resuscitation following attempted suicide by hanging presenting with severe hypoxemia. FoCUS revealed findings consistent with severe left ventricular dysfunction, and point-of-care ultrasound (PoCUS) ruled out pneumothorax. These findings, in conjunction with the clinical presentation, facilitated an early identification and rapid evaluation of cardiogenic shock; furthermore, they led to the use of FoCUS, which can provide critical information quickly on site for a patient who is suddenly symptomatic after severe mechanical asphyxia in the pediatric emergency department, pediatric intensive care unit, or the prehospital setting.

RESUMO

Introducción. La auscultación de un soplo constituye con frecuencia el principal motivo de consulta en Cardiología Pediátrica. Un pequeño porcentaje de pacientes (0.8-1%) presentan cardiopatía estructural; entre los defectos más graves, la morbimortalidad continúa siendo elevada, recomendándose la evaluación ecocardiográfica ante la sospecha de patología. Material y métodos. Estudio retrospectivo descriptivo de 1.529 niños entre 0 y 16 años atendidos en la consulta de Cardiología del Hospital Clínico Universitario Lozano Blesa, de Zaragoza, entre enero de 2010 y diciembre de 2012. Se analizaron los hallazgos más frecuentes de la muestra y cada grupo de edad. Resultados. El principal motivo de consulta fue la auscultación de un soplo, el 43,4% (649) de los pacientes procedían de Atención Primaria. Los hallazgos más frecuentes fueron los defectos del tabique intraventricular en un 6,5% (99), interauricular 5,8% (89%) y las valvulopatías 5,2% (80). Entre los neonatos se evidenció patología en el 5.2% (80). Entre los neonatos se evidenció patología en el 65,4% (208) frente al 16,7% (112) de los escolares. Conclusiones. La mayoría de los pacientes son remitidos desde Atención Primaria, siendo el principal motivo de consulta la auscultación de un soplo. En un porcentaje elevado de casos la ecocardiografía es normal, siendo frecuente el diagnóstico de soplo inocente, especialmente entre los pacientes de mayor edad (AU)


Introduction. The finding of an innocent murmur in the child frequently represents the first cause to consult in Cardiology. A small percentage of patients (0.8-1%) presents a congenital heart disease; between the severest defects, the morbimortality continues being high, which leads to tecommend the ecochardiografic evaluation due to suspicion of disease. Material and methods. A descriptive research of 1529 patients between 0 to 16 years old assessed at the Paediatric Cardiology consult at the Hospital Clínico Universitario Lozano Blesa in Zaragoza between January 2010 to December 2012. The most frequent findings were analized from the whole and each age group. Outcomes. The first cause to consult was the finding of a murmur with the stethoscope; 42,4% (649) of the patients came from Primary Attention. The principal findings were the ventricular septal defects in 6,5% (99), atrial septal defects 5,8% (89)and the valvulopathies 5,2% (80). There was pathology in the 65.4% (208) between neonates, but in the 16,7 (112) between the schoolchildren. Conclusions. Most of the patients came from Primary Attention, due to the finding of a murmur. In a high percentage the echocardiography is normal, the diagnostic of an innocent murmur is frequent specially in the oldest age range (AU)

RESUMO

El espectro óculo-aurículo-vertebral, también conocido como microsomia hemifacial, es un cuadro heterogéneo y complejo, caracterizado por la presencia de anomalías auriculares, asimetría facial y alteraciones vertebrales. Su etiología no está aún aclarada, y se especula sobre la intervención de ciertos factores ambientales que alteran el desarrollo del primer y segundo arcos branquiales. La mayoría de los casos son esporádicos, pero se han descrito casos familiares, la mayor parte con un patrón de herencia autosómica dominante, lo que apoyaría la intervención de mecanismos genéticos en el origen del cuadro. En este trabajo se presentan dos familias con un espectro óculo-aurículo-vertebral y un patrón de herencia autosómico recesivo, raro en esta entidad (AU)


Oculo-auriculo-vertebral spectrum also known as hemifacial microsomia, is a complex and heterogeneous condition characterized by ear anomalies, facial asymmetry and vertebral malformations. Although its etiology has not been yet elucidated, some environmental factors have been linked to defects of the development of the first and second branchial arches. Despite of most of the reported cases have been sporadic, some familial cases have also been described, the majority with an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern, which supports the genetic contribution to its etiology. Here, we report two families with oculo-auriculo-vertebral spectrum and autosomal recessive inheritance, rarely seen in this entity (AU)

RESUMO

Introducción y objetivos. Los trastornos del ritmo cardíaco en la población pediátrica son poco frecuentes. El objetivo del estudio fue analizar la epidemiología de las arritmias cardíacas. Material y métodos. Es un trabajo descriptivo, revisando las historias clínicas de pacientes atendidos por sospecha de alteración del ritmo cardiaco, en la consulta de Cardiología Infantil del Hospital clínico Universitario Lozano Blesa de Zaragoza entre los años 1981 y 2011. Resultados. Consultaron 286 pacientes por posible arritmia; en 133 (46,5%9 se detectaron alteraciones. La edad media fue de 8,3 años. El 75,2% fueron derivados del Centro de Salud, a mayoría por palpitaciones (68,2%). Únicamente 1% debutó con insuficiencia cardiaca. Se registraron extrasístoles en 57,8% y taquicardia paroxística supraventricular (TPSV) en 21,8%. En menores de un año (10,2%) se constató TPSV en el 50%. Del total, 22 pacientes precisaron tratamiento médico y 13 requirieron intervención. Conclusiones. La mayor parte de los pacientes derivados a la consulta de Cardiología por alteración del ritmo proceden de Centros de Salud. En la mayor parte de estos niños no se detectan alteraciones o éstas son leves y no precisan tratamiento. No obstante, hay arritmias cuyas consecuencias son graves por lo que es preciso el diagnóstico y tratamiento correcto (AU)


Introduction and objectives. Heart rhythm disorders in pediatric population are not common. This study aims at investigating the epidemiology of the cardiac arrhythmias in a sample of children. Material and methods. We looked into the medical history of patients with clinical suspicion of cardiac rhythm disturbances recorded by staff at Hospital Clinico Universitario Lozano Blesa in Zaragoza between 1981 and 2011. Results. The medical history record listed 286 with possible arrhythmia. Cardiac abnormalities were detected in 133 (46,5%) patients. The mean age amounted to 8.3 years. 75,2% of the casescame from their Health Center. The majority of the patients (68,2%) showed heart palpitations. 1% of the cases were afflicted with heart failure. Extrasystoles were detected in 57,8% and supra-ventricular tachycardia in 21,8% of the patients. Among children under one year (10.2%) half of the cases showed supra-ventricular tachycardia. 22 patients required medication, and 15 of them needed interventionist treatment. Conclusion. Most of the patients whose cardiac rhythm disturbance was diagnosed by the paediatric cardiologist came from the health centers. Almost all the cases show minor disturbances and do not require treatment. However some cases of cardiac arrhythmias may have serious consequences. Therefore, accurate diagnosis and proper treatment are necessary (AU)

RESUMO

Introducción: El estado nutricional materno es determinante para el crecimiento fetal y el peso del recién nacido (RN). El objetivo de este estudio es evaluar en nuestro medio la relación existente entre el IMC pregestacional materno y la antropometría de los niños desde el nacimiento hasta los 6 meses de vida, así como la prevalencia de lactancia materna. Material y métodos: Se han evaluado las variables antropométricas y el tipo de alimentación en una muestra de 1.547 RN durante 2009, representativa de nuestra población, en dependencia del IMC materno y en una cohorte de 759 lactantes de dicha muestra seguida hasta los 6 meses de vida. Resultados: El 72,9% de las gestantes presentaban normopeso, el 18,7% sobrepeso y el 8,4% obesidad. Las gestantes con IMC ≥ 25 kg/m2 ganaron menos peso durante el embarazo (p < 0,001), tenían menor nivel sociocultural (p < 0,001) y sus hijos pesaban más al nacer (p = 0,003) y a los6 meses de vida, sin encontrar diferencia en su longitud. El peso medio de los RN aumentó en relación con el IMC materno pero a partir de 35 kg/m2 disminuyó progresivamente (p < 0,001).Las mujeres obesas tuvieron una prevalencia de lactancia materna exclusiva del 58,5% al alta hospitalaria tras el parto y del 8,6% a los 6 meses frente al 70,8 y el 13,9%, respectivamente, en mujeres con normopeso (p < 0,05). Conclusiones: En nuestra muestra, la obesidad materna se asocia a un bajo nivel sociocultural, mayor peso del recién nacido que se mantiene hasta los 6 meses de vida y menor prevalencia de lactancia materna exclusiva. En conjunto, todos ellos son factores de riesgo nutricional acorto y largo plazo (AU)


Introduction: Maternal nutritional status is an important factor of adequate intrauterine growth and neonatal weight. The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between pregestational BMI (Body Mass Index) and breastfeeding duration, as well as infant anthropometric measurements during their first six months of life. Materials and methods: Anthropometric measurements and the type of feeding were evaluated in a representative sample of 1,547 newborns from our population during 2009, according to their maternal BMI, and also in a sub-cohort of 759 infants followed up to 6 months of life. Results: A total of 72.9% of women had a normal weight, 18.7% were overweight and 8.4% obese. Women with a BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2 had lower weight gain during pregnancy (P < 0.001), lower socioeconomic and cultural level (P < 0.001), and their infants had higher weight at delivery (P = 0.003) and at 6 months of life, with no differences in body length. Newborn weight increased in relation to maternal BMI, but over 35 kg/m2 it decreased progressively (P <0.001). Breastfeeding prevalence in obese women was 58.5% at hospital postpartum discharge, and 8.6% at six months of life; as opposed to 70.8% and 13.9%, respectively in women with normal BMI. Conclusions: In our sample, maternal obesity is associated with a low socioeconomic and cultural level, higher infant weight at delivery and at 6 months of life, and less prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding; all of them nutritional risk factors in the short and long term (AU)

RESUMO

Introducción y objetivo: Los estándares poblacionales de crecimiento intrauterino son necesarios para evaluar si el recién nacido (RN) ha crecido bien, si su estado nutricional es adecuado y para identificar grupos de riesgo como los pequeños para su edad gestacional (PEG). Se analizan las diferencias entre las curvas de crecimiento intrauterino utilizadas habitualmente en nuestro medio y el número de RN que cada una de ellas identifica como PEG. Material y métodos: Estudio transversal en 4.486 RN caucásicos (2.361 niños y 2.125 niñas), con una edad gestacional entre 35 y 41 semanas. La valoración antropométrica del RN (peso y longitud) se realizó siguiendo la metodología estándar. Se comparó el porcentaje de RN que quedaba con un peso y una longitud por debajo del percentil10 (P10) para su edad gestacional a partir de cuatro curvas de crecimiento intrauterino (Olsen et al. 2010, Lubchenco et al. 1966, Delgado et al. 1996, Carrascosa et al. 2008), siendo diagnosticado de PEG. Resultados: El peso y longitud de los niños eran significativamente mayores que los de las niñas en todas las edades estudiadas. Los valores para el P10 en cada edad gestacional son globalmente similares entre las curvas analizadas y superponibles a los de nuestra población, con la clara excepción de la gráfica de Lubchenco et al. cuyos valores para el P10 son de hasta 300 g. menos en los RN de mayor edad gestacional. Las gráficas de Lubchenco et al. identifican un menor número de PEG que las otras. El porcentaje de niños PEG de nuestra muestra osciló entre un 1,7% y 14% en dependencia del estándar, sexo y edad gestacional considerados. Conclusión: El número de niños clasificados como PEG(..) (AU)


Introduction and objective: Population standards of intrauterine growth are necessary to evaluate if the newborn has grown well, if their nutritional conditions are appropriate and to identify groups at risk as those small for gestational age (SGA). Differences in the number of SGA newborns identified, depending on the standard applied, have been analyzed in this study. Material and methods: Cross-sectional study conducted in 4,486 Caucasian newborns (2,361 boys and 2,125 girls),born between 35 and 41 weeks. Weight and length valuation was performed following the standard methodology. Percentage of children under the 10th percentile for weight and length was calculated depending on the standard used (Olsen et al. 2010, Lubchenco et al. 1966, Delgado et al. 1996, Carrascosa et al. 2008), being diagnosed of SGA. Results: Weight and length were significantly higher in boys than in girls at all ages. 10th percentile values defined for every gestational age are globally similar among the different standards and our population, with the clear exception of Lubchenco curves whose 10th percentile values are even 300 g. lower for the newborns at the highest gestational ages. Lubchenco charts do not fit the pattern of intrauterine growth of our population and identify a smaller number of SGA. The percentage of SGA of our sample ranged between 1.7% and 14% in depending on the standard, sex and gestational age considered. Conclusion: The number of children classified as SGA is different according to each standard used. Lubchenco charts identify a smaller number of SGA than the others. The rest of curves show similar values and seem to be well adapted for our population. The correct identification of SGA will allow a better assessment of short and long-term risks of these newborns (AU)

The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between pre-gestational BMI (Body Mass Index) and breastfeeding duration, as well as infant anthropometric measurements during their first six months of life. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Anthropometric measurements and the type of feeding were evaluated in a representative sample of 1,547 newborns from our population during 2009, according to their maternal BMI, and also in a sub-cohort of 759 infants followed up to 6 months of life. RESULTS: A total of 72.9% of women had a normal weight, 18.7% were overweight and 8.4% obese. Women with a BMI ≥ 25 kg/m(2) had lower weight gain during pregnancy (P < .001), lower socioeconomic and cultural level (P < .001), and their infants had higher weight at delivery (P=.003) and at 6 months of life, with no differences in body length. Newborn weight increased in relation to maternal BMI, but over 35 kg/m(2) it decreased progressively (P < .001). Breastfeeding prevalence in obese women was 58.5% at hospital postpartum discharge, and 8.6% at six months of life; as opposed to 70.8% and 13.9%, respectively in women with normal BMI. CONCLUSIONS: In our sample, maternal obesity is associated with a low socioeconomic and cultural level, higher infant weight at delivery and at 6 months of life, and less prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding; all of them nutritional risk factors in the short and long term.

RESUMO

Introducción. Los trastornos paroxísticos no epilépticos son manifestaciones de origen brusco y breve duración. Se originan por una disfunción cerebral y tiene en común el carácter excluyente de no ser epilépticas. Objetivo. Analizar los datos epidemiológicos, clínica y evolución de estos episodios en nuestra serie. Material y métodos. Se revisaron las historias de 139 pacientes de 0 a 15 meses valorados en nuestro Servicio de Pediatría en 2007 y 2008 que presentaron al menos un episodio paroxístico y se registraron las características epidemiológicas, clínicas, actitud diagnóstico-terapéutica y evolución. Resultados. El 94,3% de los pacientes con trastornos paroxísticos fueron no epilépticos. El 67% fueron crisis febriles y el 28% afebriles. Este último grupo se clasificó en: crisis anóxicas (59%), trastornos motores (8%), trastornos secundarios a tóxicos (7,7%) o relacionados con el sueño (2,6%). El desarrollo psicomotor fue normal en todos excepto en uno. Precisaron tratamiento farmacológico (2 síndrome de Sandifer y 1 síndrome de abstinencia). Conclusiones. Los trastornos paroxísticos no epilépticos son 10 veces más frecuentes que los epilépticos, no precisan tratamiento farmacológico, pero sí normas de actuación ante las crisis, ya que a pesar de su naturaleza benigna y mejor pronóstico, causan gran angustia familiar y generan consultas frecuentes (AU)


Introduction. Non epileptic paroxismal events are clinical disorders with sudden appearance, short duration and caused by a cerebral dysfunction with the common feature to be not epileptic. Objective. Our aim was to analyze the epidemiological, clinical and evolution of these events in our series. Methods. We included 139 patients from 0 to 15 months studied in our department in 2007 and 2008 who had at least one paroxysmal event and registered the epidemiological, clinical, diagnostic, therapeutic and developmental data. Results. 94.3% of patients were non-epileptic paroxysmal events. Of these, 67% were febrile seizures and 28% were afebrile. The latter group was classified as: Anoxic events (59%), motor disorders (8%), toxic secondry disorders (7.7%) or sleep-related (2.6%), among others. Psychomotro development was normal in all cases except one. Only three patients were treated 82 Sandifer Syndrome and 1 withdrawal). Conclusion. It is estimated that non-epileptic paroxysmal disorders are 10 times more common that epilepsy, not usually require drug treatment, but a proper performance is needed because despite its benign nature and better prognosis cause great distress and generate family frequent consultations (AU)

RESUMO

Introducción: El crecimiento es un fenómeno complejo que en pediatría tiene especial relevancia por constituir un indicador fundamental del estado nutricional. Objetivo: Evaluar las diferencias en la interpretación del peso en una muestra de niños de nuestro medio, desde el nacimiento hasta los 18 meses, según los estándares nacionales e internacionales existentes. Métodos: Estudio longitudinal del peso y longitud en una cohorte de 383 niños de 0 a 18 meses representativa de la población aragonesa. Tras un análisis descriptivo se calculó la ‘puntuación típica’ a partir de cinco tablas de crecimiento poblacional. Finalmente se calculó el porcentaje de niños que quedaban por encima o debajo de 2DE para el peso según el estándar utilizado. Resultados: Del total, 50,1% eran varones y 49,9% mujeres. El peso y longitud de los niños fueron mayores que en las niñas en todas las edades (p<0,01). La mayor diferencia entre las puntuaciones típicas medias para el peso según el referente utilizado se encontró a partir de los 6 meses. El porcentaje de niños con un peso 2 DE osciló entre un0,5 y un 3,3 % a los 18 meses en dependencia del estándar. Conclusión: Existen diferencias globales al evaluar el peso de una misma muestra de niños menores de 18 meses según los diferentes estándares poblacionales, así como en el número de niños que quedan fuera de los límites de la normalidad con cada uno de ellos (AU)


Introduction: Growth is a complex phenomenon that has in pediatric age special relevancy because it constitutes a fundamental indicator of nutritional status. Objective: To evaluate differences about weight analysis of infants aged 0-18 months depending on the population reference used. Methods: This is a longitudinal weight and length study in a representative sample of 383 infants from Aragon since birth until 18 months of age. A descriptive analysis was realized and ‘’z-scores’’ were calculated from five growth curves. Finally there was calculated the percentage of children who were staying above or under 2DS for weight depending on the standard used. Results: 50,1 % were males and 49,9 % women. Weight and length of the children were higher in girls than in boys in all the ages (p <0,01). Major differences between weight z-score averages from standards were at 6 months and later. The percentage of children on a weight 2 DS ranged between 0,5 and one 3,3 % at18 months of age depending on the standard. Conclusion: Global differences exist when weight is evaluated in the same sample of infants up to 18 months of age depending on different population standards, as well as in the number of children who stay out of the limits of the normality with each of them (AU)

RESUMO

Introducción. La parálisis branquial obstétrica es una entidad relativamente frecuente, originada en el período neonatal. Objetivo. Determinar la incidencia y pronóstico de la parálisis obstétrica del plexo branquial y analizar factores de riesgo asociados. Material y métodos. Estudio retrospectivo descriptivo, de todos aquellos niños nacidos en nuestro centro y diagnosticados de parálisis braquial en los últimos 10 años, valorando variables perinatales y evolución de los mismos. Resultados. Se diagnosticaron 23 parálisis braquiales (1/1.000 recién nacidos), 13 varones (56,5%) y 10 mujeres 843,5%). Todos los partos fueron a término con una incidencia de distocia de hombros del 69,5% y un peso medio al nacimiento de 3.937 g (3.390-5.110 g). La parálisis fue más frecuente en el lado derecho (65,2%), con afectación de raíces superiores en todos los casos. El 74% de los niños se recuperó en los primeros 6 meses de vida, precisando fisioterapia un 57,1%; solo en dos casos se llevaron a cabo otras pautas terapéuticas. A pesar del tratamiento, un 17% de los niños presentaron secuelas permanentes. Conclusiones. La parálisis branquial obstétrica sigue siendo un problema frecuente en nuestro medio; habitualmente, se afectan las raíces superiores, suele ser unilateral con predominio del lado derecho y puede originar secuelas permanentes (AU)


Introduction. The obstetrical brachial palsy is a relatively frequent entity with origin in the neonatal period. Objective. To determine the incidence and prognosis of obstetric brachial plexus injuries and analyze associated risk factors. Material and methods. Retrospective descriptive study, of all those children born in our center and diagnosed of brachial palsy, in the last 10 years, valuing perinatal variables and evolution of the same ones. Results. Obstetrical brachial palsy was diagnosed in 23 children’s 81/1000 newborn), 12 males 856.5&) and 10 females (43.5%). All the patients were born full term with an incident of distocia of shoulders of 69.5% and an average weight to the birth of 3937 g (3390-5110 g). The palsy was more frequent in the right side (65.2%), mainly of upper roots in all the cases. 74% of the children recovered in the first 6 months of life, needing physical therapy 57,1%, only in two cases other treatments were carried out. In spite of the treatment, 17% of the children presented permanent sequels. Conclusions. The obstetrical brachial palsy continues being a frequent problem in our environment, usually affecting upper roots, unilaterally, with predominance of the right side and can originate permanent sequels (AU)

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Growth is a complex phenomenon that has in pediatric age special relevancy because it constitutes a fundamental indicator of nutritional status. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate differences about weight analysis of infants aged 0-18 months depending on the population reference used. METHODS: This is a longitudinal weight and length study in a representative sample of 383 infants from Aragon since birth until 18 months of age. A descriptive analysis was realized and "z-scores" were calculated from five growth curves. Finally there was calculated the percentage of children who were staying above or under 2DS for weight depending on the standard used. RESULTS: 50.1% were males and 49.9% women. Weight and length of the children were higher in girls than in boys in all the ages (p<0.01). Major differences between weight z-score averages from standards were at 6 months and later. The percentage of children on a weight<2 DS ranged between 0.5 and one 3.3% at 18 months of age depending on the standard. CONCLUSION: Global differences exist when weight is evaluated in the same sample of infants up to 18 months of age depending on different population standards, as well as in the number of children who stay out of the limits of the normality with each of them.

RESUMO

Objetivo. Determinar la relación entre factores de riesgo perinatal, incluyendo la hemorragia intraventricular (HIV), y el desarrollo neurológico tras tres años de seguimiento en los niños con muy bajo peso al nacer dados de alta en nuestra Unidad Neonatal. Material y método. Estudio retrospectivo de 70 recién nacidos con un peso≤ 1,500 g dados de alta entre los años 2002 y 2005. Se realizó seguimiento del desarrollo psicomotor hasta los tres años y se comparó la presencia o no de secuelas con los distintos factores de riesgo perinatales. Resultados. De los 70 niños, 45 fueron seguidos hasta los tres años (peso medio 1.191 g) y el 46,4% (21) tenían antecedente de HIV. La presencia de secuelas (26,6%) se relacionó con el antecedente de corioamnionitis materna (p<0,01) y con una puntuación baja en el test de Apgar (p<0,05), pero no con otros factores de riesgo. Comentarios. Nuestros resultados sugieren que la corioamnionitis y una puntuación baja en el test de Apgar asocian significativamente alteraciones en el desarrollo psicomotor a los tres años de edad. La existencia de otras patologías o tratamientos más agresivos asocian un retraso transitorio que no se relaciona con alteración en el desarrollo psicomotor a largo plazo (AU)


To evaluate the relationship between risk perinatal factors included intraventricular hemorrhage and neurodevelopment outcome after three years of very low birth weight after discharge form the intensive care unit. Material and methods. A retrospective study was undertaken of 70 preterm babies discharge form the intensive care unit between 2002-05 weighting less than 1.500 g. They were followed-up with a neurological evaluation for three years. The presence of neurological sequelae and risk perinatal factors were compared. Results: Seventy patient followed-up during three years (mean weight 1.191 g), 46,6% (21) of these presented intraventricular haemorrhage. A significant association between neurological sequelae and maternal chorioamnionitis (p<0,01) a low Apgar score (p<0,05) was found, but not in relation to other risk factors. Conclusions. The results suggest that preterm infants exposed to maternal chorioamnionitis or low Apgar score are at a higher risk of poor neurological outcome at the age of three years. Other pathology or aggressive treatments associate a transitory delay that does not relate to alteration in the psychomotor long-term development (AU)
