Sun Jin Lee, Jin Kyu Kim, Sun Jun Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2018;61(12):387-391.   Published online September 16, 2018

Purpose: Subgaleal hemorrhage (SGH) is a rare but potentially fatal condition in newborns; however, few studies have reported on this condition. We aimed to identify the clinical characteristics and prognostic factors of SGH. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 20 neonates diagnosed with SGH between January 2000 and June 2017. Enrolled neonates were clinically diagnosed when they had tender...

Purpose

This study aimed to assess whether different anesthetic techniques and oxytocin use applied during delivery affect transcutaneous bilirubin levels during the first 24 hours in neonates.

Methods

A total of 1,044 neonates delivered by either caesarian section (C/S) or normal vaginal delivery (NVD) were included in the study. They were classified into 5 groups as follows: group 1: born by C/S using...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 2009;52(11):1228-1233.   Published online November 15, 2009
Purpose : This study aimed to evaluate whether a shorter time from the arrival at a hospital to delivery is related to the occurrence of cerebral palsy in premature infants of less than 34 weeks of gestational age. Methods : We studied 142 newborns of less than 34 weeks of gestational age. The time from the arrival at the hospital...

Kwang Ho Meng, Won Chul Lee, Kyung Tai Whang
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1982;25(2):136-140.   Published online February 28, 1982
Neonatal Hyperbilirubinemia is increasing in frequency and there have been suggestions that this may be due to some change in factors involved in delivery. In this study, among numerous hypothesized factors, maternal age, gestational age, birth weight, birth order, and methods of delivery were tested if there were statistical associations between these factors and occurance of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. For the...
