Abstract

To investigate the pulmonary ultrasound in children with congenital heart disease postoperative invasive ventilator time, non-invasive ventilator use the guide. Using prospective clinical observation research methods, Randomly divide 100 cases ranged from 6 months to 3 years old in cardiopulmonary bypass after congenital heart disease surgery patients into ultrasound group and control group, 50 cases in each group. All postoperative give positive cardiac function maintenance, diuresis, etc. Ultrasound group adopted the pulmonary ultrasound in children with pulmonary interstitial pulmonary edema monitoring and guide to extubation, enable the timing of the noninvasive ventilator support; Control group based on the bedside chest X-ray lung condition. Compare two groups of children with mechanical ventilation time (including the invasive and noninvasive ventilator support), noninvasive ventilator utilization rate and its accuracy, start the noninvasive ventilator time, the incidence of ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP), secondary tracheal intubation cases and ICU stay time, etc. The ultrasound group compared with the control group in Invasive ventilator time [(15.0 ± 11.0) vs (20.0 ± 13.5, P=0.043)], noninvasive ventilation tim...Continue Reading

Birth Defects

Birth defects encompass structural and functional alterations that occur during embryonic or fetal development and are present since birth. The cause may be genetic, environmental or unknown and can result in physical and/or mental impairment. Here is the latest research on birth defects.
