Abstract

Background: Mannitol 20% is used to treat patients with decreased consciousness and as the first line of treatment to reduce intracranial pressure (ICP). However, its application in pediatric patients is still based on minimal evidence. This study was performed to determine the predictive factors of clinical outcomes in pediatric patients with brain edema in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU).Methods: This prospective cohort study was conducted in the PICU, Sanglah Hospital Denpasar, Bali, Indonesia. The subjects were chosen by consecutive sampling from July 2016 to July 2017. The primary outcome variable was the patient’s clinical outcome. A chi-square test was used to evaluate the association between the timing of mannitol administration and the patient’s clinical outcome. Multivariate analysis was performed on all variables with p≤0.25.Results: Forty-one patients were included in the study, 65% of them were male, 65% had good nutritional status, 90% had non-traumatic brain injury, and 73% had confirmed intracranial infection. The risk of sequelae or death for patients in a coma was 1.8 times greater than that of non-comatose patients (p=0.018; CI 95% 1.119–3.047). Based on the timing of mannitol administration from the onset of decreased consciousness, the risk of sequelae or death in patients who received mannitol after 24 hours was 2.1 times higher than that in patients who received mannitol within 24 hours (p=0.006; CI 95% 1.167–3.779). Based on multivariate analysis, only two variables were associated with the patient’s clinical outcome: pediatric Glasgow coma scale (PGCS) ≤3 (p=0.03) and timing of mannitol administration >24 hours (p=0.01).Conclusion: Early administration (<24 hours) of mannitol and high PGCS are related to favorable outcomes in patients with brain edema in the PICU.

Abstract

Kejang sangat sering ditemukan pada pasien anak dengan perkiraan kejadian first unprovoked seizuresebesar 2% dan epilepsisebesar 1% pada anak sebelum berusia 16 tahun. First unprovoked seizure adalah kejang yang terjadi tanpa faktor pencetus seperti demam, infeksi sistem saraf pusat, trauma kepala, gangguan metabolik, hipoksia otak, dan obat-obatan.Berulangnya first unprovoked seizure berbeda-beda pada setiap pasien dan dipengaruhi oleh faktor risiko perorangan seperti gambaran EEG epileptiform atau adanya kelainan neurologis sebelumnya.Tatalaksana first unprovoked seizure berupa mengatasi kejang pada saat serangan.Pemberian obat anti-epilepsi pada pasien dengan first unprovoked seizure masih kontroversial.Tujuan utama pemberian obat anti-epilepsi pada pasien dengan first unprovoked seizure adalah mengoptimalisasi kualitas hidup anak dengan mempertimbangkan risiko pemberian obat dan mencegah berulangnya kejang, pemilihan keluarga serta efek samping pemberian obat.

Abstract

Abstract Breakfast is believed to provide many benefits to the growth and development of children, including its memory, but the availability of data that can convince the public regarding this matter is still relatively lacking. This analytic study was conducted to determine the relationship between breakfast habits and memory levels in public elementary school students in the city of Denpasar, with a cross- sectional approach. The research data were primary data obtained from interviews with demographic questionnaire, Breakfast Consumption Habit Questionnaire (BCHQ) for the assessment of chidlren’s habists and Children’s Memory Questionnaire-Revised (CMQ-R) for assessing children’s memory levels. The implementation of study is from May-December 2018 to 16 public elementary schools in Denpasar City. The sample collection technique using cluster random sampling method with a sample size of 399 students. The sample in this study was dominated by male (55.1%) with the majority aged 10 years and above (57.4%). As many as 40.8% of students are classified as malnourished (underweight, overweight, and obese). The economic status of the respondents’ family is dominated by middle class. The majority of the father and mother of each respondents were high school graduates (59.1% and 53.4%), with the most jobs being private employee (39.1%) and not working (30.6%) respectively. More than a third of respondents (37.3%) were not used to have breakfast. Children who are accustomed to breakfast tend to have higher memory levels of 1.737 times more than those are not used to it. Breakfast habits have a significant relationship with the level of memory of children, with a value of p=0.008 (95% CI= 1,153–2,618). Breakfast habits are proven to be a factor that affects the level of memory of children. Further research is needed to find out the specific memory aspect that are affected and the type of breakfast that is most ideal for children development. Abstrak Sarapan dipercaya memberikan banyak manfaat pada tumbuh kembang anak, termasuk memorinya, akan tetapi kesediaan data yang dapat meyakinkan masyarakat terkait hal tersebut masih relatif kurang.

Abstract

Background An electroencephalogram (EEG) is an electroimaging tool used to determine developmental and electrical problems in the brain. A history of severe asphyxia is a risk factor for these brain problems in infants. Objective To evaluate the prevalence of abnormal EEGs in full term neonates and to assess for an association with severe asphyxia, hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), and spontaneous delivery. Methods This cross-sectional study was conducted at the Pediatric Outpatient Department of Sanglah Hospital, Denpasar, from November 2013 to January 2014. Subjects were fullterm infants aged 1 month who were delivered and/or hospitalized at Sanglah Hospital. All subjects underwent EEG. The EEGs were interpreted by a pediatric neurology consultant, twice, with a week interval between readings. Clinical data were obtained from medical records. Association between abnormal ECG and severe asphyxia were analyzed by Chi-square and multivariable logistic analyses. Results Of 55 subjects, 27 had a history of severe asphyxia and 28 were vigorous babies. Forty percent (22/55) of subjects had abnormal EEG findings, 19/22 of these subjects having history of severe asphyxia, 15/22 had history of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), and 20/22 were delievered vaginally. There were strong correlations between the prevalence of abnormal EEG and history of severe asphyxia, HIE, and spontaneous delivery. Conclusion Prevalence of abnormal EEG among full-term neonates referred to neurology/growth development clinic is around 40%, with most of them having a history of severe asphyxia. Abnormal EEG is significantly associated to severe asphyxia, HIE, and spontaneous delivery.

Abstract

Background Infantile spasms (IS) is an age-spedfic epilepsy syndrome characterized by flexor, extensor, and mixed flexor-extensor spasms which often occur in clusters during the first 2 years of life. IS is often difficult to manage 'With the usual anti-epilepsy drugs (AEDs). Therapy with adrenocorticotropin honnone (ACTH) has been used since 1958. In Indonesia, ACTH usage is still rare.Objective This study aims to examine the effectiveness of ACTH as an anti-epileptic drug in managing IS.Methods This was descriptive retrospective cohort study. Subjects were IS patients who visited the neurology outpatient clinic in Sanglah Hospital, Bali, from January 2007 until June 2010. Each subject received AED(s) plus either ACTH or methylprednisolone for 4􀁆6 weeks.Results There were 19 IS patients over the four year duration of this study. They were mostly boys (11), aged 2 weeks to 17 months, with a mean age at treatment of 9 months. Eighteen patients received poly therapy, while one patient received only phenobarbital as monotherapy. Most patients who received ACTH (13/16) had a seizure-free period, while the 3 that did not receive ACTH continued having seizures. Patients who received ACTHshowed a good response (seizure-free) after 5-13 days therapy and their EEG pattern showed disappearance of burst suppression Mthin 1-2 weeks. ACTH side effects included weight gain and cushingoid appearance. One patient died from pneumonia.Conclusions Diagnosis of IS should be considered in patients pre-senting Mth spasms at less than 6 months old. IS treatment should begin as soon as possible. IS patients responded well to a short course of ACTH therapy.

Abstract

Background WHO standard treatment for acute diarrhea remainsunsatisfying to the parents of acute diarrhea patients, particularlythe need of medical treatment. Bovine colostrum contains immuneand growth factors that is thought able to neutralize some agentscausing acute diarrhea in infants and children.Objective To evaluate the efficacy of bovine colostrum as adju-vant therapy on recovery time and length of hospital stay for acutediarrhea in infants and children.Methods A double-blind randomized controlled trial was conductedon infants and children with acute diarrhea admitted to SanglahHospital. Treatment group received standard therapy with bovinecolostrums and control group received standard therapy plus pla-cebo. The primary outcomes were achievement of recovery timeand length of hospital stay. Recovery time was determined by thenumber of days needed to achieve defecation frequency <3 times/day and needed to achieve normal stool consistency.Results Seventy infants and children were enrolled. The treatmentgroup significantly achieved recovery time earlier than the control groupin regard to the time of achieving defecation frequency to <3 times/day [2.31 (0.76) vs 3.34 (1.45); mean difference of -1.03; P= 0.001; CI95% -1.58;-0.48] and normal stool consistency [2.40 (0.77) vs 3.43(1.48); mean difference of -1.03; P = 0.001; CI 95% -1.59;-0.46]. Lengthof hospital stay was shorter in the treatment group than the controlgroup [2.89 (0.78) vs 3.94 (1.53); mean difference of -1.05; P= 0.001;CI 95% (-1.3;-0.7)]. No significant difference was found in mean ofbody weight recovery in two groups [0.47 (0.16) vs 0.49 (0.20); meandifference of -0.03; P=0.556; CI 95%: -0.11;0.06]. Age, nutritionalstatus, breastfeeding, and diarrhea before admission did not influ-ence the study outcome.Conclusion Bovine colostrums as an adjuvant in standard therapyfor acute diarrhea in infants and children is effective in regard toachieve earlier recovery time and shorter length of hospital stay

Abstract

Background: Long-term use of valproic acid is associated with a high level of blood ammonia related to carnitine deficiency. This study investigates the effect of carnitine supplementation on blood ammonia levels in children with epilepsy who have been treated with valproic acid for more than six months.Materials and Methods: This was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial study where children with epilepsy who were treated with valproic acid were randomly allocated to the carnitine supplementation and control group. All children were followed for month, and then measured for blood ammonia level. Blood ammonia levels of both groups were compared using an Independent t-test with a significant of p<0.05.Results: Total of 32 children with epilepsy were enrolled as subjects in this study, with 16 children in carnitine group, and 16 children in control group. Among the subjects, 50% were male and 50% were female, with a mean age of 6.5 years old. The average duration of epilepsy in the carnitine and control group were 41.7 months and 36.9 months, respectively (p=0.419). The duration of valproic acid therapy in the carnitine and control group were 33.1 months and 27.6 months, respectively (p=0.483). The level of blood ammonia in carnitine and control group were 44.6 mg/dL and 81.4 mg/dL, respectively (p=0.007).Conclusion: The level of blood ammonia in a carnitine group was significantly lower than in a control group. It is recommended to give carnitine supplementation in epileptic children treating with long-term valproic acid.Keywords: ammonia, carnitine, epilepsy, seizure, valproic acid
