ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the changes of the urine sodium and serum sodium in different types and different duration and different temperature in children with febrile seizures,to explore its clinical significance. Methods The children with febrile seizures(n =50)were selected as the group Ⅰ,and the children with fever but without seizure(n =50)were selected as the group Ⅱ,both of them were from pediatric ward.The control group(n =20)without fever or seizure was from Children's Health Section.All the children were checked serum sodium level and urine sodium and urine creatinine level.Results The sodium/creatinine ratio in the groupⅠ[(25.07 ±6.517)] was significantly higher than that in the group Ⅱ[(20.43 ±5.48)]and group Ⅲ[(14.88 ±5.11)](F =33.519, P <0.05),but there was no significant difference of the sodium/creatinine ratio in different ages and different types of the group Ⅰ,and there was negative relevance between the serum sodium and the sodium/creatinine ratio in the groupⅠ(r =-0.517,P <0.05).The mean serum sodium level in the groupⅠ[(133.50 ±3.14)mmol/L]was signifi-cantly lower than that in the group Ⅱ[(137.60 ±2.59)mmol/L]and group Ⅲ[(138.90 ±2.24)mmol/L](F =39.220,P <0.05),but there were no significant differences of the serum sodium in different types and different dura-tion and different temperature of seizure in the group Ⅰ.Conclusion The study shows that serum sodium is lower and the urine sodium is higher in children with febrile seizures,the changes of the urine sodium and serum sodium are not related to the types.The children with febrile seizures should be timely monitoring of serum sodium,urine sodium levels,and according to changes in the level of serum sodium,urine sodium,early appropriate supplement containing sodium liquid and maintaining the blood sodium to normal levels can reduce the recurrence of seizure.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the character and clinical significance of electrolyte in the children suffered from different degree pneumonia on different periods. Methods The levels of sodium, calcium, magnesium, potassium, chlorine and phosphorus in the serum of children suffered from mild pneumonia group, severe pneumonia group and control group were tested respectively. The levels of sodium, calcium, magnesium in the serum of children suffered from pneumonia during their acute period and convalescence were tested respectively. The levels of potassium in the serum of children suffered from pneumonia caused by various pathogens were detected too. Those results were analysed. Results The levels of sodium, calcium, magnesium in the serum of children in mild pneumonia group were obviously higher than those in severe pneumonia group(P
