Purpose Of Review: Summarize the effects of opioids on sleep including sleep architecture, sleep disordered breathing (SDB) and restless legs syndrome.
Recent Findings: Opioids are associated with the development of central sleep apnea (CSA) and ataxic breathing. Recent reports suggest that adaptive servo-ventilation may be an effective treatment for CSA associated with opioids.
Objective: To explore the relationship between neonatal oxygen saturation and BP at age 6-7 years in a cohort of infants born extremely preterm.
Study Design: Infants <28 weeks gestation were assigned to a higher or lower oxygen saturation target. Oximeter data were monitored throughout the neonatal period.
Background: Acute thrombosis in the system of the inferior vena cava is one of the most common vascular diseases and is of serious danger as a potential source of one of the most severe complications. In order to assess efficacy of open thrombectomy for embologenic iliofemoral venous thromboses we carried out comparison of the results of open thrombectomy and implantation of cava filters in a total of 119 patients presenting with iliofemoral thrombosis.
Patients And Methods: Open thrombectomy was performed in a total of 59 patients.
Objective: We conducted a multicenter, randomized, controlled trial to determine whether higher doses of indomethacin would improve the rate of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) closure.
Study Design: Infants (<28 weeks gestation) who received a conventional, prophylactic 3-dose course of indomethacin were eligible if they had continued evidence of persistent ductus patency on an echocardiogram obtained before the third prophylactic indomethacin dose. Infants (n = 105) were randomized to receive an extended 3-day course of either low-dose (0.
