ABSTRACT
Resumen: Introducción: La boca del recién nacido se contamina inmediatamente con microorganismos maternos. Caufield determinó la colonización con SGM para niños americanos a los 26 meses de edad. Estudios latinoamericanos la ubican entre los 14,9-18 meses. Objetivos: -Identificar el momento de adquisición y colonización del SGM en una población de niños uruguayos y relacionarlo con factores del niño y maternos. Establecer el tiempo necesario para la recolección de la muestra y estudio de su pérdida. Método: Estudio observacional, longitudinal prospectivo, de 83 pares madre-hijo de un policlínico de Montevideo. De 83 pares examinados, 20 completaron el estudio. Se incluyeron niños de 0-9 meses, con/sin dientes y primera toma salival negativa para SGM. Resultados: Edad promedio de adquisición del SGM 16,4 meses (±4,13) y colonización 18,6 meses (±3,80) de edad. La pérdida de la muestra fue 71,42%. Conclusiones: La colonización resultó similar a la encontrada por Florio (Brasil), observándose diferencias significativas con Caufield (EEUU).

Abstract: Introduction: The newborn's mouth is immediately contaminated with maternal microorganisms at birth. Caufield determined that the average age of colonization with Mutants streptococci (MS) for American children was 26 months old. Latin American studies indicate that it occurs at an age between 14.9 and 18 months old. Objectives: To identify the time of MS acquisition and colonization in a population of Uruguayan children and to relate it with various child and maternal factors. To establish the time needed to collect the sample and its loss. Methods: Observational, longitudinal prospective study, of 83 mother-child pairs from a medical center in Montevideo. From the 83 pairs examined, 20 completed the study. Children between 0-9 months old, with/without teeth, whose first saliva sample was negative for MS, were included. Results: The mean age of MS acquisition was 16.4 months (± 4.13), and colonization occurred at 18.6 months (± 3.80) of age. The sample loss was 71.42%. Conclusions: The colonization found was similar to that found by Florio (Brazil) but showed significant differences with Caufield's results (USA).
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effects of extensively hydrolyzed formula forvery/extremely low birth weight(VLBW/ELBW)infants.Methods From Jun.2013 to Oct.2015,78VLBW/ELBW infants admitted to our hospital within 12 hours of birth were randomly assigned into two groups:hydrolyzed protein formula feeding group ( hydrolyzed formula group) and preterm formula feeding group (control group). Infants with hospital stay <28 days were excluded. Prospective study was conducted between two groups comparing the duration of meconium discharge, the time required for total enteral feeding average hospital stay, feeding intolerance and physical growth and blood biochemical indices on the28thday.Results A total of 78 infants were enrolled,35 in hydrolyzed formula group and 43 in control group. Comparing with control group, feeding intolerance in hydrolyzed formula group was significantly lower ( 25. 7℅ vs. 72. 0℅) . The duration of meconium discharge [ ( 4. 9 ± 0. 8 ) d vs. (8. 8 ± 1. 6)d], the time required for total enteral feeding[(13. 4 ± 2. 0) d vs. (18. 9 ± 2. 6) d] and average hospital stay duration [ ( 33. 7 ± 5. 1 ) d vs. ( 41. 8 ± 6. 8 ) d ] was shorter in hydrolyzed formula group ( P<0. 05). The body length on the 28th day in hydrolyzed formula group was longer than control group[ (43. 8 ± 1. 2 ) cm vs. ( 42. 6 ± 2. 0 ) cm, P < 0. 05 ] . The concentration of serum albumin [ (32. 5 ± 3. 0 ) g/L vs. ( 30. 0 ± 4. 5 ) g/L ] and hemoglobin [ ( 112. 4 ± 11. 4 ) g/L vs. ( 106. 3 ± 13. 0) g/L] in hydrolyzed formula group were significantly higher than the control group( P<0. 05). No significant difference was found between the two groups regarding the time required returning to birth weight [(10. 9 ±2. 2)d vs. (10. 1 ±1. 7)d],body weight [(1759 ±107)g vs. (1627 ±435)g], head circumference[(30. 3 ± 1. 0)cm vs. (29. 7 ± 1. 6)cm] on the 28th day and the incidence of extrauterine growthretardation(EUGR)(40.0℅vs.44.1℅)atdischarge.Conclusions Comparing with preterm formula feeding, early feeding with extensively hydrolyzed formula can reduce the incidence of feeding intolerance on VLBW/ELBW infants. Extensively hydrolyzed formula also can accelerate meconium discharge, reduce hospital stay duration and the time required for total enteral feeding. But the growth of weight and head circumference on the 28th day and the incidence of EUGR at discharge were not altered by extensively hydrolyzed formula.
ABSTRACT
La sintomatología depresiva es frecuente en el embarazo y repercute en el posparto y en el vínculo madre-bebé. Se reportan los resultados de una intervención grupal de 5 sesiones para reducir la sintomatología depresiva y promover una adecuada sensibilidad materna. Participaron 134 embarazadas con antecedentes de depresión (grupo experimental = 88 y grupo control = 46). Se evaluó sintomatología depresiva (Inventario para la Depresión de Beck), resolución de problemas sociales (Inventario de Resolución de Problemas Sociales Abreviado), sensibilidad materna, cooperatividad infantil y riesgo vincular (Índice Experimental de Relación Niño-Adulto) en ambos grupos. Se observó una reducción significativa de la sintomatología depresiva, así como un incremento de las habilidades para la resolución de problemas sociales en el grupo intervenido. Este grupo muestra también puntajes significativamente mayores en sensibilidad materna y cooperatividad infantil, así como menores frecuencias de riesgo vincular en la evaluación postintervención. Se discute la relevancia de desarrollar estrategias de intervención durante el embarazo, considerando su impacto en la sensibilidad materna, en la calidad de las interacciones madre-bebé y en las habilidades de las madres para resolver problemas.
Depressive symptoms are frequently observed during pregnancy, and these affect the mother and her relationship with her baby during the post-partum period. Results are reported on a 5-session group intervention for reducing depressive symptoms and promoting maternal sensitivity. The participants included 134 pregnant women with a history of depression (experimental group = 46 and control group = 88). Depressive symptoms (Beck Depression Inventory), social problem-solving strategies (Social Problem-Solving Inventory-Revised), maternal sensitivity, infant cooperativeness and bonding risk (Child-Adult Relatinoship Experimental Index) were assessed in both groups. The group intervened showed a significant reduction of depressive symptoms and an improvement of social problem-solving strategies. This group also shows significantly higher scores in maternal sensitivity, and infant cooperativeness, as well as lower frequencies of bonding risk in the post-intervention assessment. The importance of considering intervention strategies during pregnancy, including its impact on maternal sensitivity, the quality of mother-baby interactions and the problem-solving abilities of the mothers, is discussed.
ABSTRACT
A 16 month old male infant was found with slip down state in a bath room without evidence of trauma to whole body. The infant was treated with several thoracentesis & closed drainage due to persistent right pleural effusion at other hospital and transferred to our hospital for further evaluation and treatment at July 2003. The pleural effusion was confirmed as chylothorax by chemical analysis. He was treated with parenteral feeding for 21 days. Because the amount of chest tube drainage was about 110~210 cc/day, and could not be decreased with conservative treatment. patients underwent ligation of thoracic duct. Post-operative course was uneventful except post-op. empyema thoracis, The open drainage tube was removed at post operative 30 days, The patient was in very good condition with complete cure until post-operative 3 months.
