1.Neonatal asphyxia resuscitation:a concept mistake to be corrected at present
Chinese Pediatric Emergency Medicine 2012;19(2):192-195
The new neonatal resuscitation guidelines was published in 2011 in China,which said no more neonatal asphyxia resuscitation guidelines as used,and showed a correct statement as the same as international that,also contained a deep essence meaning which would bring about some new thought and new behavior on neonatal resuscitation.There are three aspects should be realized:( 1 ) the diagnosis of neonatal asphyxia is extremely strict abroad now,which demonstrates that asphyxia is a after-resuscitation event instead of before-resuscitation one,and only failure of resuscitation will cause a asphyxia.Therefore,it is no suitable to say asphyxia resuscitation ; ( 2 ) in neonatal resuscitation algorithm,it never mentions asphyxia or not from birth to resuscitation finished; ( 3 ) under thinking shackle of the mistake concept asphyxia resuscitation,resuscitation behavior usually becomes more passive and inactive,and though the guidelines are the same,the resuscitation results are different between our country and abroad.So,changing conception,and resuscitation first,will be beneficial to decreasing neonatal asphyxia mortality to international level at which we might have arrived originally.
2.Application of sustained lung inflations for neonatal resuscitation
Chinese Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics 2017;32(14):1041-1044
Application of sustained lung inflation (SLI)during neonatal resuscitation can increase alveolar opening,promote lung fluid absorption and maintain the appropriate functional residual capacity (FRC) which can complete the transition from fetal phase of respiratory system to neonatal period.In recent years,SLI has also been confirmed by a large number of animal experiments and clinical studies,and it is expected to be practically applied in the resuscitation of newborns.However,more randomized controlled trials with a large number of samples is required for exploring suitable populations,methods of operation,and recent or long-term effects on newborns.Now,the application and research of SLI in neonatal resuscitation are described.

Objective:To determine the changes of intramucosal pH(pHi) after severe craniocerebral injuries and the correlation to bleeding from stress ulceration. Methods:Nineteen cases of severe head trauma patients were enrolled, their pHi were determined at different time point with tonometry. The pH of gastric juice and plasma gastrin concentrations were monitored for 7 days. Results:Five cases(bleeding group) developed stress ulcer bleeding. On admission, the pHi were not significantly different in the non bleeding group, but the differences between two groups at 12 hours, 24 hours, the 3rd day, the 5th day, the 7th day after admission were significant, pHi in the bleeding group was statistically lower than non bleeding group. The pH values of gastric juice and the plasma gastrin concentrations were not different significantly between two groups during each therapeutic periods. Conclusion:Bleeding group had significantly lower pHi than non bleeding group during the therapeutic periods. pHi was predictive for bleeding from stress ulceration after severe craniocerebral injury.
4.Cardiovascular support for extremely low birth weight infants
Chinese Pediatric Emergency Medicine 2010;17(1):8-12
The development of cardiovascular system in very premature infants is immature.Hypotension and patent ductus arteriosus are common problems in the few days of life.The enormous difference that these infants receive cardiovascular support may affect the morbidity and mortality.Volume expansion,inotropes,cyclooxygenase inhibitor and glucocorticoid is commonly used drugs,but when and how to treat for these extremely low birth weight infants with cardiovascular problems has been plagued by clinical doctors.

Objective To expolore the changes of coagulation index in newborns of different age and its clinical significance. Methods We studied 129 newborn infants without complication admitted to the neonatal department in an all-around hospital in Gnangzhou from January to December in 2005. These neonates were divided into two groups, including 63 cases of full-term infants and 66 cases of premature infants. Prothrombin time (PT), activated partial prothrombin time (APTT), Fibrinogen (Fg), thrombin time (TT), D-dimer (D-D) of these newborn infants were assayed on the first day, the third day and the tenth day. Results In the postnatal three periods of time, there was no difference in PT and D-dimer between two groups(P >0.05), but APTT and TT in premature infants were higher than that in full-term infants( P < 0.05), and Fg in premature infants were lower than that of full-term irfants(P<0.05). PT,APTT, TT,Ddimer were in decrease tendency and Fg increased as age increased( P < 0.05 ). Conclusion Geststional age and age had effect on coagulation index in newborn infants, and both can provide clinical references to clinical diagnosis and therapy.

ObjectiveTo study the feasibility, efficacy and safety of laryngeal mask airway (LMA) Supreme (SLMA) in neonatal resuscitation.MethodsSixty neonates, who were born at South Medical University Affiliated Maternal & Child Health Hospital of Shenzhen from June 1, 2012 to June 1, 2013 and requiring positive pressure ventilation after 30 s primary resuscitation post born, with birth weight above 2 000 g or gestational age above 34 weeks, were randomly assigned into two groups: SLMA group (n=30) and LMA Classic (CLMA) group (n=30). The outcome indicators included the curative effect, insertion time and possible adverse reactions of the two kinds of LMA, and the serum bio-markers, heart rate and percutaneous pulse oxygen saturation (SpO2) of all neonates. Independent samplet test, non-parametric test andChi-square test were applied for statistical analysis.ResultsThe insertion time was shorter in SLMA group than in CLMA group [(4.9±1.0) vs (7.6±1.3) s,t=8.98,P<0.05]. And more displacement occurred in CLMA group than in SLMA group [13.3% (4/30) vs 0% (0/30), Fisher exact test,P<0.05]. The successful rate of resuscitation in SLMA group was higher [100.0% (30/30) vs 90.0% (27/30), Fisher's exact test,P<0.05], and both the onset time and the total ventilation time were shorter than those in CLMA group [(12.4±3.7) vs (15.6±3.8) s,t=3.31,P<0.05; (37.3±17.0) vs (48.2±20.1) s,t=2.29,P<0.05]. The heart rate at 1 min after delivery was higher in SLMA group than in CLMA group [(93.5±20.9) vs (74.2±17.8) bpm,t=-3.86,P<0.05], and the same results were shown for SpO2 at 1, 2 and 3 min after birth [(47.1±8.4)% vs (38.7±12.1)%, t=-3.13; (68.1±9.5)% vs (52.8±10.8)%,t=-5.82; (78.3±10.0)% vs (72.1±9.7)%,t=-2.46; allP<0.05]. In the CLMA group, vomit or regurgitation occurred in three neonates, abdominal distension in two cases, aerogastria in seven cases. However, none of the above was reported in the SLMA group. No laryngeal injury was found in any of the subjects.ConclusionSLMA is more potential than CLMA in neonatal resuscitation because of its simplicity, better airtight, less adverse effect, superior efficacy and less requirement for tracheal intubation.
