Enterovirus Infection in Preterm Quadruplets with Clinical Presentation of Neonatal Late-Onset Sepsis: a Case Report.

This is the unusual case of concurrent late-onset sepsis caused by enteroviruses in preterm quadruplets in a neonatal ward. While viral infections are an important differential diagnosis of bacterial sepsis in the outpatient setting, the occurrence in a neonatal ward with strict prophylactic hygiene measures is unusual. In this case, transmission of enteroviruses via breast milk appears possible.

High-flow nasal cannula vs standard respiratory care in pediatric procedural sedation: A randomized controlled pilot trial.

Introduction: Respiratory instability is frequently observed during pediatric procedural sedation. The aim of this trial was to estimate the impact of high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) therapy on respiratory stability during sedation for upper gastrointestinal tract endoscopy in children.

Methods: Prospective randomized controlled non-blinded single-center pilot trial.
