Objective: To compare the prevalence rates and outcome of NNT in a Nigerian tertiary hospital over two periods characterized by different national immunization programmes the Expanded Programme on Immunization (EPI) and the National Programme on Immunization (NPI). Methods: The records of babies hospitalized with NNT between 1991 and 1996 (EPI period) and between 1997 and 2005 (NPI period) were studied. Results: The prevalence rates for the EPI and NPI periods were 6.4 percent and 2.9 percent respectively. Most of the mothers did not receive ante-natal care (81.4 percent for EPI and 75.6 percent for NPI), did not take anti-tetanus vaccines in pregnancy (87.7 percent for EPI and 88.4 percent for NPI) and delivered their babies outside the health facilities (86.6 percent for EPI and 83.3 percent for NPI). The Case Fatality Rate was 49.5 percent and 61.5 percent for the EPI and NPI periods respectively. Conclusion: The prevalence and mortality of NNT remains high in Nigeria despite a change in immunization programme.","PeriodicalId":75037,"journal":{"name":"The Internet journal of pediatrics and neonatology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70824975","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 World Health Organization estimates that approximately 4 million newborns die each year with most deaths occurring in developing countries. Any discharge against medical advice (DAMA) amongst this vulnerable group can adversely affect morbidity and mortality.Aim: To identify the causes of DAMA and try to find ways to reduce its incidence in neonates in Port Harcourt, Nigeria. Method: This was a retrospective study done amongst neonates admitted into the Special Care Baby Unit of the University of Port Harcourt Teaching Hospital. Case files of all affected neonates over a 2 year period were reviewed and relevant information obtained and analysed.Results: There were 63 cases of DAMA out of 1481 admissions during the period, giving a prevalence rate of 4.3%. 58 case files were retrieved and analysed. There were 37 males and 21 females with a male: female ratio of 1.7: 1. Preterm babies constituted 25.9% of the cases. The commonest diagnoses were neonatal sepsis and birth asphyxia. Most discharges occurred within the first week of admission (mean =5.9± 4.5days). Common reasons for DAMA were lack of funds and falsely perceived improvement. The discharge document was signed by the father in 77.6% of cases.Conclusion: Poverty, mis-conceived ideas, and other social issues contributed to DAMA in this study. Some babies had life threatening conditions and discharges occurred more within the first few days of life. DAMA in neonates will retard progress in achieving millennium development goal 4.","PeriodicalId":75037,"journal":{"name":"The Internet journal of pediatrics and neonatology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70819427","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}

In the follow-up examinations a subcutaneous metastasis in the abdominal wall was found and excised at the age of 6 weeks. Curative polychemotherapy was induced.

Materials and Methods: We administered orotracheal CPAP with compensation bag to nine newborns with mean weight of 1077 g (range, 779-1311 g) and mean gestational age of 28.5 weeks (range, 26 30 weeks). All infants underwent measurement of blood gases and vital signs, and chest radiographs. Results: Orotracheal CPAP with compensation bag was effective in eight patients; high-frequency oscillatory ventilation for pulmonary arterial hypertension was required in one patient. No adverse events were attributable to the procedure. Mean time to extubation was 86 hours.
