概括
从低剂量肠道克罗尼丁 (LDC) 开始似乎与高剂量肠道克罗尼丁 (HDC) 在新生儿重症监护室 (NICU) 治疗疼痛,兴奋和阿片类药物戒断方面同样有效. 这一发现支持LDC作为一个可行的初始治疗策略.
科学领域:
- 新生儿药理学 新生儿药理学
- 儿科重症监护 儿科重症监护 儿科重症监护
背景情况:
- 在高风险的新生儿重症监护室 (NICU) 婴儿中,阿片类药物戒断和激动是常见的.
- 肠道克洛尼丁用于控制这些症状,但最佳剂量策略需要进一步调查.
研究的目的:
- 为了比较低剂量和高剂量的肠道克洛尼丁在治疗NICU婴儿的疼痛,兴奋和阿片类药物戒断的疗效.
主要方法:
- 在IV级NICU接受50周月经后50周前肠内克罗尼丁的95名婴儿的回顾性图表审查.
- 婴儿被分为低剂量 (LDC:<4mcg/kg/day) 和高剂量 (HDC:≥4mcg/kg/day) 的组.
- 结果的比较,包括新生儿疼痛,兴奋和镇静量表 (N-PASS) 评分,超过30天的治疗.
主要成果:
- 在LDC (n=41) 和HDC (n=54) 组之间没有观察到统计学上显著的人口差异.
- 低发达国家和高发达国家群体在30天的治疗期间,N-PASS得分的降低也相似.
- 与HDC组 (8mcg/kg/day) 相比,LDC组获得较低的最大克洛尼丁剂量 (4mcg/kg/day).
结论:
- 以低剂量启动肠道克洛尼丁可能与高剂量一样有效,用于治疗NICU婴儿的疼痛,兴奋和阿片类药物戒断.
- 这项观察性研究表明LDC是一种潜在的有效的替代初始剂量策略.

Drug Dosing: Infants and Children

Pediatric patient dosages diverge from adults due to disparities in body surface area, total body water, and extracellular fluid per kilogram of body weight. The dosing regimen considers the variations in pharmacokinetics and pharmacology across distinct age groups, encompassing preterm newborns, infants, young children, older children, and adolescents. Calculation of pediatric patient doses is predicated on determining body surface area, which exhibits a superior correlation with the child's...

Pharmacokinetic–Pharmacodynamic Relationship: Intensity of Dose-Effect Relationship
2
Pharmacodynamics explores the relationship between drug concentration and its effect. In a quantal response drug, the duration of action better correlates with drug concentration, while for graded effect drugs, the intensity of response is more relevant. This intensity depends on the dose, drug removal rate, and the region of the concentration–response curve.The concentration–response curve can be divided into three regions. Region 3 (80–100% maximum response) demonstrates...

Measurement: Standard Units
82.2K
Every measurement provides three kinds of information: the size or magnitude of the measurement (a number), a standard of comparison for the measurement (a unit), and an indication of the uncertainty of the measurement. While the number and unit are explicitly represented when a quantity is written, the uncertainty is an aspect of the errors in the measurement results.

The International System of Units or SI system, by international agreement, has fixed measurement units for seven fundamental properties: length, mass, time, temperature, electric current, amount of substance, and luminosity. These are called the SI base units.

The Sense of Self: Reflected Self-Appraisal and Social Comparison

According to Charles Cooley, we base our image on what we think other people see (Cooley 1902). We imagine how we must appear to others, then react to this speculation. We don certain clothes, prepare our hair in a particular manner, wear makeup, use cologne, and the like—all with the notion that our presentation of ourselves is going to affect how others perceive us. We expect a certain reaction, and, if lucky, we get the one we desire and feel good about it. But more than that, Cooley...

Sound Intensity
4.9K
The loudness of a sound source is related to how energetically the source is vibrating, consequently making the molecules of the propagation medium vibrate. To measure the loudness of a source, the physical quantity of interest is the intensity. This is defined as the energy emitted per unit of time per unit of area perpendicular to the sound wave's propagation direction. Since the total energy is greater if the source vibrates for a longer duration and over a larger area, dividing the...
