Study on some influencing factors such as buffer, antioxidant substances to build primary formulation of tobramycin eye drops with stability over 12 months. Result: temperature and light have much influence to the stability of tobramycin and pH contents of eye drops solution. High temperature impacts clearly to the decrease of tobramycin pH and contents. The solution was stable with borate buffer more than phosphate and citrate buffer. Product samples without antioxidant substances have low remained tobramycin contents, about 70% after three months ageing. Dinatri EDTA, natri bisulfit and dinatri EDTA-natri bisulfit combination have significant effect to the stable of tobramycin content. However, dinatri EDTA choice compared with dinatri EDTA-natri bisulfit combination is the same because of dinatri EDTA effect. Dinatri EDTA has better effect to the stable of pH and increase anti-bacteria effect of benzalkonium chloride

Background: Idiopathic or Immune Thrombocytopenic Pupura (ITP) is a common disease in Vietnamese children. This is a hemostatic disorder disease diagnosed by clinical symptoms combining with tests of platelet quantity in peripheral blood and other tests. Objectives: to study epidemiology, clinical, para-clinical characteristics and their relations in ITP disease. Subjects and methods: This was a prospective and retrospective study. The study included 579 pediatric patients from 3 months to 16 ages who were diagnosed and treated ITP disease in National Pediatric Hospital from 1/1/2003 to 12/31/2004. Results: Data were analyzed, including 191 infants from >3-<12 months (33.0%), 293 children from 1 - 10 ages (50.6%), 95 children >10-<16 ages (16.4%). The male/female ratio was highest in infants and decreased with age (P < 0.001). The disease occurred more in September, October and November with advantage factor being acute respiratory infection before 2 to 3 weeks. Subcutaneous hemorrhage ratio was highest with 557 cases (96.2%), intracranial hemorrhage happened in 7 cases (1.7%). There were differences among age groups about hemorrhage situation. Anemia level did not corresponding with the decrease of the platelet count. Conclusion: Characteristics of ITP depend on the number of platelet and age. \r\n', u'\r\n', u'\r\n', u'

Background:The urocytogramme is a certain laboratory tests, although older. By studying the cellular elements from the wall of the bladder trigone desquamated in the urine, it allows cyto-hormonal diagnosis. It allows to assess the presence and importance of the biological effect of sex steroids. This examination is not commonly used because they are poorly known in our country. It's a review of how simple, noninvasive, inexpensive. Objectives:This study aims to learn about the value of urocytogramme in normal menstruation period of girls. Subjects and method:A study was conducted on 143 high school girls of Hai Ba Trung Secondary School, Hue city. The mean age was 15\xb18 months, completely puberty; the average weight was 45.7\xb16.8 kg; average height was 156.8 \xb18.5 cm. The duration of study was from September 2006 to May 2007. Results:Urocytogramme had the index which changed according to the phase of the menstrual cycle and correlated closely with sex hormone concentrations in the ovulatory phase. The IK index had the value in ovulation diagnostic phase with the sensitivity and specificity concentrations equivalent to LH and plasma Estradiol. Conclusion:Urocytogram was a useful test for the diagnosis of in normal menstruation period of adolescent girls. It was easy, cheap and truly reflected oestrogen activity to help doctors making decision for the treatment of lasting amenorrhea disorders.

Background: Maternal and child healthcare is a leading priority in the health care strategy of Viet Nam. Motherhood safety is amongst contents of reproductive healthcare strategy to ensure safe delivery, reduce maternal and neonatal morbidity as well as mortality. Aims: To discover the utilization of delivery care and related factors to women in selecting location for delivery. Subjects and method: The study was carried out in Chillilab \u2013 Demographic and Epidemiological Surveillance was set up in Chi Linh district, Hai Duong province by the School of Public Health. A combination of quantitative and qualitative methods was used in collecting the data. Results: 97% of pregnant women chose public health facilities as their delivery place and 2.5% of pregnant women had homebirths. The main reasons for delivery in hospitals were trust on care quality and sufficient equipment for emergency care. The complicated delivery rate was 14% and Cesarean section delivery was 12%. Hospitalized deliveries were more common in the women with higher education and/or better economic status. Conclusion: There should be improved healthcare communications to encourage all women to give birth at health facilities. Improving the quality of delivery care in community health stations is important to give opportunities for deprived women to receive safer deliveries.
