Hemodialysis II: Procedure and Complications

696
DialyzersA hemodialysis (HD) dialyzer is a plastic cartridge containing thousands of parallel hollow fibers, which serve as semipermeable membranes. These fibers are typically made from cellulose-based or other synthetic materials. During HD, blood is pumped into the top of the cartridge and distributed among these fibers. Simultaneously, dialysis fluid, known as dialysate, is introduced into the bottom of the cartridge, bathing the outside of the fibers. Across the semipermeable membrane,...

Diabetes: Symptoms, Diagnosis, and Complications

2.1K
For most patients, experiencing several weeks of polyuria, polydipsia, fatigue, and significant weight loss may indicate the presence of diabetes. Furthermore, adults displaying the phenotypic appearance of type 2 diabetes (particularly those who are obese and not initially insulin-requiring), may have islet cell autoantibodies, suggesting autoimmune-mediated β cell destruction and a diagnosis of latent autoimmune diabetes of adults (LADA). The categorization of glucose homeostasis is...

Asthma, a common chronic respiratory condition, is classified considering the frequency and severity of symptoms alongside lung function impairment. Understanding this classification is essential for appropriate treatment and management. Here's a detailed look at the classification of asthma and its clinical features and complications:

Increased Body Temperature01:25

Increased Body Temperature

6.4K
A body temperature above  38°C  (100.4 °F) is known as fever or pyrexia, and a person with fever is termed 'febrile.' Typically, the hypothalamus, a part of the brain that acts as the body's thermostat, regulates body temperature through a thermoregulatory setpoint. It receives signals from cold and warm thermal receptors throughout the body and adjusts the body's temperature accordingly. Fever occurs when this hypothalamic setpoint is altered, usually in...

Increased pulse rate

Tachycardia is a condition marked by an abnormally fast or irregular heart rate, surpassing the typical resting rate. In adults, tachycardia is characterized by a pulse rate ranging from 100 to 180 beats per minute. The increased heart rate can result in inadequate blood flow to various body parts, ultimately diminishing the oxygen supply to organs and tissues.
Many factors can elevate the risk of developing tachycardia. These include advanced age, a family history of arrhythmias, and an...

Summary

Performing mandibular distraction osteogenesis (MDO) in newborns does not increase inpatient complications. Neonatal MDO is safe and should not be a contraindication for treatment at experienced centers.

Area of Science:

  • Craniofacial Surgery
  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Health Services Research

Background:

  • Mandibular distraction osteogenesis (MDO) is a surgical procedure to correct mandibular hypoplasia.
  • The optimal timing for MDO, particularly during the neonatal period, requires further investigation regarding potential complications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine if performing MDO during the neonatal period increases inpatient complications.
  • To assess the health-care burden associated with neonatal MDO compared to later intervention.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective cohort study utilizing the Kids' Inpatient Database (2000-2011).
  • Included infants (<12 months) undergoing MDO, comparing neonatal (<28 days) vs. non-neonatal distraction.
  • Analyzed outcomes: procedures, postoperative length of stay (pLOS), hospital charges, and transfer rates using regression models.

Main Results:

  • Of 102 patients, 50 underwent neonatal MDO. Neonatal MDO patients had higher rates of cleft palate and feeding difficulties.
  • Neonatal MDO was not associated with increased procedures, pLOS, hospital charges, or transfer rates.
  • Secondary predictors, not neonatal age, influenced pLOS, hospital charges, and procedure counts.

Conclusions:

  • Neonatal MDO is not linked to increased inpatient complications or health-care burden.
  • Neonatal status should not be a contraindication for MDO at experienced surgical centers.
