Clin Exp Pediatr. 1990;33(4):448-455.   Published online April 30, 1990
To determine the optimal position for the neonatal intensive care, transcutaneous oxygen tension (TCPO2) was monitored in 20 healthy preterm infants and 20 healthy term infants using the Radiometer Tc Oxgen Monitor in both supine and prone position. Also, transcutaneous oxygen tension (TcPO2) was monitored with tilting change in each position. When the infants were prone, TcPO2 rose by a mean of 7.36 mmHg...

Acid-Base and Electrolyte Change Before and After Exchange Transfusion with ACD-B Blood in Hyperbilirubinemia of Newborn.
Ki Hong Park, Chong Woo Bae, Yong Mook Choi, Chang Ill Ahn, Jung Kook Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1989;32(3):311-320.   Published online March 31, 1989
Exchange transfusion is being used widely to correct anemia and control existing hyperbilirubinemia for the prevention of kernicterus in newborn. But the blood used for exchange transfusion is stored blood containing anticoagulants and other substances. So many metabolic changes can be developed after exchange transfusion. This study was undertaken to evaluate the acid-base and electrolyte change after exchange transfusion using the ACD-B blood. In...

Congenital nephrotic syndrome is an uncommon disorder, which is caused by a heterogenous group of renal diseases with variable etiology and natural history. It may be inherited, sporadic, acquird or a part of a general malformation syndrome. This disorder has no single or pathological feature for pathognomonic finding, and there is no ultimate curative treatment except renal transplantation. We experienced a case of congenital...
