Abstract:Twenty‐three patients have been studied by exercise testing during right heart catheterization. Cardiac output was measured by the earpiece densitometric technique before, during and after the exercise period. It is concluded that the earpiece densitometric technique in conjunction with exercise testing offers an attractive alternative for the study of pressure and flow characteristics in children with congenital heart diseas

摘要:

ABSTRACTThe emotional impact of serious illness or injury bears just as much potential for being disabling to an adolescent as does the condition itself. It is also these concerns and the possibilities for difficult behavior on the part of teenagers on the ward which frequently cause staff members to feel at a loss when caring for this reputedly difficult age group. But if one carefully examines the specific developmental stresses of illness and the various coping mechanisms by which the youth may counter them, a logical management approach emerges.To a large degree this approach depends on compensation, intellectualization, displacement and constructive denial but also recognizes that destructive denial, regression and projection do normally and naturally occur at various points in the course of illness and hospitalization and that panic and acting out may also readily occur, but less frequently. The deterence of the more deleterious responses and promotion of the more felicitous depends on a ward setting which provides for the adolescent's growing need for independence and self‐determination; for continued reassurance about body image integrity, for resumption of mastery and control; and for the maintenance or restoration of his sense of self‐worth. These goals are achieved by encouraging the youth to be an active partner in his own care; to share in decisions made about his condition; to pursue just as much independent self‐management as he can; to actively engage in establishing a peer group with other adolescents in the ward; to continue with his education, socialization, personal interests and outside peer contacts as much as possible; and to feel that the staff respects his dignity and privacy, likes him as a person and appreciates the courage and effort with which he is facing a difficult

摘要:

Abstract.Bjerre, I. (Department of Paediatrics, Malmö General Hospital, Malmö, Sweden). Physical growth of 5‐year‐old children with a low birth weight. Stature, weight, circumference of head and osseous development. Acta Paediatr Scand, 64: 33, 1975.–In a prospective investigation of the physical growth of children with a low birth weight, 143 unselected children who weighed less than 2500 g at birth were reviewed at 5 years of age. The children were grouped according to weight relative to gestational age.Stature and weight were compared with normal curves for Swedish children and with a control series. The circumference of the head was compared with a normal curve. Osseous development was assessed by the method of Eklöf&Ringertz and was compared with their normal values.Growth of the LBW‐children was slightly retarded in respect of stature, weight and osseous development, but not regarding head circumference. The values found for stature and osseous development were low in the group small for gestational age and for twins. Those LBW‐children who were appropriate for gestational age developed at a normal rate. This is true even for those with the lowest birth weight and those born long before term.Osseous development was correlated with stature, which may be due to the measuring method used. Neither maternal disease nor feeding difficulties during the first few months of life had any demonstrable effect on the physical development of the children. Socio‐economic factors now surely play at most a subordinate role. Physical development of the children varied most with the mothers' stature and weight and probably with here
