Its incidence has increased in the present decade by 30-fold with increasing geographic expansion to new countries, from urban to rural areas. Estimated 50million dengue infections occur annually and approximately 2.5 billion people live in dengue endemic countries.There has been increasing incidence of dengue fever in this part in recent years. Dengue fever is known to involve multiple systems sometimes resulting multi organ dysfunction. Bleeding manifestation is most common to occur in dengue fever. Hence the following prospective observational study in 500 consecutive patients with dengue fever was study was conducted at Nimra Medical College in 2 years (November 2015 to November 2017) to find out to know the correlation between the clinical bleeding and laboratory parameters which significantly correlate to clinical bleeding in patients with DF, DHF, and DSS.Out of 500 children, 61% belongs to DF among which 98.36% were recovered, 1.63% were expired, 23% belongs to DHF and are 100% recovered, and 16% DSS of which 97.50% were recovered, 2.50% were expired. Bleeding manifestations are very common in dengue infection with altered laboratory parameters. Thus, bleeding manifestations and low platelet count with altered coagulation profile in serologically positive cases can be used to guard the prognosis of dengue fever and DHF.","PeriodicalId":105328,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Integrative Medical Sciences","volume":"291 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124890850","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The benefits of using alkalinized lignocaine to fill the cuff of an endotracheal tube to prevent post intubation sore throat were sought. A randomized controlled study was performed on 66 patients of ASA I-II status divided into 3 groups of 22 each. In the A group ETT was filled with air, in group PL plain lignocaine was used to inflate the cuff and in group AL alkalinized lignocaine was used to fill the ETT cuff. The degree of sore throat and other side effects of intubation like coughing, restlessness, dysphonia and hoarseness were assessed over 24 hours post-extubation. In this present study, incidence of sore throat was less when intracuff alkalinized lignocaine was used rather than plain lignocaine or air. Throat pain, restlessness, dysphonia and hoarseness were most common in the air group in which air was the inflating medium. Compared to plain lignocaine group, the incidence of side effects was less in the alkalinized lignocaine group. Thus our study showed benefit of using an alkalinized lignocaine filled ETT cuff in preventing post intubation sore throat.","PeriodicalId":105328,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Integrative Medical Sciences","volume":"85 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121869156","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
