Objective:To investigate the risk factors and ultrasonographic features of neonatal hepatic subcapsular haematoma (HSH).Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on five neonates diagnosed with HSH at Shaoxing Maternity and Child Health Care Hospital from June 2020 to June 2024. Clinical data, including clinical manifestations, ultrasonographic characteristics, and follow-up outcomes, and the risk factors of HSH were summarized with descriptive statistical analysis.Results:All five cases were very low/extremely low birth weight preterm infants delivered by cesarean section, with a history of birth asphyxia. Case 1 presented with hypovolemic shock postnatally and was incidentally diagnosed with HSH via abdominal ultrasound. Cases 2 and 3 were diagnosed during a routine ultrasound monitoring of the umbilical venous catheter tip position within 3 d after catheterization. Cases 4 and 5 were diagnosed by abdominal ultrasound re-examination following unsuccessful umbilical venous catheterization. Case 1 received no catheterization or external chest compression, while Cases 2, 3, and 5 received external chest compression during resuscitation. Case 2 had a history of difficult cesarean section. Cases 2 to 5 underwent umbilical venous catheterization (failed in Cases 4 and 5). Ultrasonography revealed cystic-dominant echogenicity, presenting as elongated or oval-shaped with well-defined margins, and were accompanied by varying amounts of echogenic bands and dots. Three cases had single lesions and two had multiple lesions. A total of nine hemorrhagic foci were found with four in the right posterior liver lobe, three in the right anterior lobe, and two in the left lobe. No hepatic capsule disruption was observed in any of the five cases. After immobilization, hemostasis, and supportive care, the haematoma in Case 1 completely resolved with calcification at 134 d after birth, while in the remaining four cases, the haematomas resolved completely without calcification between 17 and 62 d after birth.Conclusions:HSH may present without classical symptoms or signs. In neonates with very low/extremely low birth weight presenting hypovolemic shock, HSH should be suspected, particularly in those with perinatal trauma or a history of external chest compression during resuscitation. Abdominal ultrasound is recommended for exclusion if indicated. Ultrasound not only facilitates the diagnosis of HSH, but also enables dynamic monitoring of hematoma progression and resolution.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the relationship and impact of long-term budesonide treatment results and medication compliance of children with asthma in Shaoxing through multidisciplinary precision medication nursing led by clinical pharmacists. METHODS Randomized controlled trial design was adopted. Children with asthma admitted to Shaoxing Maternity and Child Health Care Hospital from January 1, 2022 to December 1, 2022 were taken as the research objects. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 106 patients were selected to be included in the group, and randomly divided into intervention group(multidisciplinary precision care group led by pharmacists) and control group(conventional care group). Compared the differences of lung function, Morisky Children’s Medication Compliance Scale, IgE, eosinophil count, drug information satisfaction scale and medication belief scale between the two groups. RESULTS The lung function level, Morisky score, lgE, eosinophil count and medication compliance of the intervention group were significantly better than those of the control group, and the differences had statistical significance. CONCLUSION A multidisciplinary nursing team led by clinical pharmacists has significantly improved the clinical outcomes and medication compliance of children with asthma.
4.Progress in prevention and treatment on neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis
International Journal of Pediatrics 2010;37(6):568-570
Neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis is the common disease of gastrointestinal tract of neonate.Also it is one of the main reasons of premature death. The pathogenesis of NEC is still unknown. Recently, scientists at home or abroad have done much research on the risk factors, pathogenesis, treatment and precaution of NEC.They try to reduce the morbidity and mortality of NEC by the way of changing feeding patterns, using probiotics,controlling the infection of pathogenic bacteria,using nutrition or cell factors. This passage reviewed the precaution of NEC in passed three years.
