RESUMO
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to investigate the experiences of Turkish mothers in teething period and the factors affecting teething. METHODS: This study was performed by filling in questionnaire forms with a face-to-face interview technique with the mothers of 792 patients presenting to the outpatient clinics of pediatrics of Fatih (Turgut Ozal) University Faculty of Medicine between 1 April and 31 July 2012. RESULTS: This study was conducted in a total of 792 children (mean age: 24.2±7.9, range 12-42 months; 430 males). Of the study population, 6.1% had a family history of premature teething, 9.7% had a family history of delayed teething, 98% had been breastfed, 91.9% had used vitamin D, 67.6% had used iron supplements, and 3.9% had fluorine use. The first teething was at 7.8±2.5 months and the first teeth to appear was the anterior lower incisor (58.7%). The symptoms the patients had during teething were irritability (64.9%), fever (64.1%), increased mastication (61.6%), increased salivation (58.2%), and diarrhea (45.6%). The rate of admission to a physician with these complaints was 19.6%. The factors affecting the teething time were a family history of premature or delayed teething and birth with natal tooth, and male gender. CONCLUSIONS: In this study we found that nutritional or local factors were not effective on teething time. Teething period was characterized by nonspecific symptoms including irritability, subfebrile fever, increased mastication and salivation, and diarrhea. Linear regression analysis revealed that male gender and a family history of premature teething were the factors responsible from a shortening in teething time.

La intubación convencional para la asistencia respiratoria en niños con vía aérea dificultosa puede ser un desafío incluso en manos expertas. Los rápidos avances en la atención respiratoria han reducido la incidencia de intubación traqueal dificultosa y por ende las complicaciones. Sin embargo, en algunos pacientes, todavía ocurren complicaciones graves inesperadas. Describimos el caso de un neonato con secuencia de Pierre Robin con vía aérea dificultosa, que presentó una migración del tubo endotraqueal hacia el esófago luego de haberse desprendido del conector del tubo. Deseamos compartir esta experiencia ya que, de acuerdo con nuestro conocimiento, esta complicación no ha sido comunicada anteriormente en neonatos.
Conventional intubation for pulmonary management in children with a difficult airway may be very challenging even in skilled hands. Rapid advancements in respiratory care have reduced the incidence of difficult tracheal intubation and the incidence of complications have decreased accordingly. However, serious unexpected complications still occur in some patients today. Herein, we describe a syndromic newborn infant with a difficult airway who experienced migration of the endotracheal tube into the esophagus after displacement of the tube connector. We would like to share our experience and contribute to the literature with the presentation of this undesired event. To the best of our knowledge, no such complication has been reported in the neonatal literature before.
