ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: Premature baby's oral feeding is not possible until the reflex of sucking-swallowing-breathing adquisition. Its delay extends hospital stay and increases the incidence of oral motor disorders in early childhood. AIMS: To analyze the transition from enteral to oral nutrition, the comorbidity associated with its delay and the impact of an early suction stimulation in a cohort of premature babies. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Retrospective checking of 95 infants less than 32 gestation weeks (GW) admitted to a neonatal ICU in the last 4 years. It was revised the gestational age, anthropometric at birth and discharge, comorbidity, duration of mechanical ventilation, oxygen requirements, time of beginning and end of enteral/oral nutrition, beginning of Kangaroo method and the suction stimulation and the daily weight gain average. RESULTS: Suction stimulation began between weeks 29 and 40 GW (average and median 32 GW). Oral nutrition was initiated between 31-40 GW (average and median 33 GW) and completed between 33-44 GW (average and median 35 GW). Oral nutrition was delayed in patients who required longer mechanical ventilation and oxygen therapy. There was a positive correlation between the beginning of suction stimulation and the time of acquisition of a complete oral nutrition (84% Spearman correlation test) and length of hospital stay (80% Spearman correlation test). CONCLUSIONS: [corrected] Early suction stimulation in a preterm patient seems to facilitate full oral nutrition at an early stage and it is associated with a hospital stay decrease and the improvement in the daily weight gain average.

ABSTRACT

Introducción: La nutrición oral del prematuro no es posible hasta la adquisición del reflejo de la succión-deglución-respiración. Su retraso prolonga la estancia hospitalaria y aumenta la incidencia de trastornos oro-motores en los primeros años de la infancia. Objetivos: Analizar la transición de la nutrición enteral a la oral, la comorbilidad asociada con su retraso y el impacto de una estimulación precoz de la succión en una cohorte de prematuros. Pacientes y métodos: Revisión retrospectiva de 95 prematuros menores de 32 semanas de gestación (SG) ingresados en una UCI neonatal en los últimos 4 años. Se revisó la edad gestacional, somatometría al nacimiento y al alta, comorbilidad asociada, duración de la ventilación mecánica, necesidades de oxígeno, momento de inicio/fin de nutrición enteral/oral, inicio del método canguro y estimulo de la succión y ganancia ponderal media diaria. Resultados: La estimulación de la succión se inició entre la semana 29 y 40 SG (media y mediana 32 SG). La nutrición oral se inició entre la 31-40 SG (media y mediana 33SG) y completó entre la 33-44 SG (media y mediana 35 SG). La nutrición oral se retrasó en los pacientes que necesitaron más tiempo de ventilación mecánica y oxigenoterapia. Hubo una correlación positiva entre el inicio de la estimulación de la succión y el momento de adquisición de una nutrición oral completa (84% test de correlación de Spearman) y el tiempo de estancia hospitalaria (80% test de correlación de Spearman). Conclusiones: El estímulo precoz de la succión en el paciente pretérmino parece facilitar la nutrición oral completa de manera precoz, asociándose a una disminución en la estancia hospitalaria y a una mejora en la ganancia ponderal media diaria (AU)

ABSTRACT

La invaginación intestinal es una causa frecuente de abdomen agudo y obstrucción intestinalen niños de entre 3 meses y 6 años de edad. Describimos el caso clínico de un niñode 2 años que acude a urgencias por un episodio de cefalea, vómitos y escasa reactividadposterior frente a estímulos. Tras un estudio inicial para la exclusión de las causas potencialesde la alteración del nivel de conciencia, la realización de una ecografía abdominal dio eldiagnóstico de invaginación ileo-ileal. La resolución posterior fue espontánea. Las causas abdominalesdeben ser excluidas en la edad pediátrica ante alteraciones del nivel de concienciainexplicadas por otros cuadros. La ecografía abdominal es una técnica no invasiva que puedeayudar al diagnóstico (AU)


Intussusception is a common cause of acute abdomen and intestinal obstruction inchildren between 3 months and 6 years old. We describe a case of a 2-year-old child whowent to the emergency department for an episode of headache, vomiting and low reactivityto stimuli. After an initial study to rule out potential causes of altered mental status,an abdominal ultrasound gave the diagnosis of ileo-ileal intussusception. The subsequentresolution was spontaneous. Abdominal causes should be excluded in the pediatric age incase of changes in level of consciousness that are unexplained by other conditions. Abdominalultrasound is a noninvasive technique that can help the diagnosis (AU)
