    • Background: Child health is a key priority on the global health agenda, yet the provision of essential and emergency surgery in children is patchy in resource-poor regions. This study was aimed to determine the mortality risk for emergency abdominal paediatric surgery in low-income countries globally.Methods: Multicentre, international, prospective, cohort study. Self-selected surgical units performing emergency abdominal surgery submitted prespecified data for consecutive children aged <16 years during a 2-week period between July and December 2014. The United Nation's Human Development Index (HDI) was used to stratify countries. The main outcome measure was 30-day postoperative mortality, analysed by multilevel logistic regression.Results: This study included 1409 patients from 253 centres in 43 countries; 282 children were under 2 years of age. Among them, 265 (18.8%) were from low-HDI, 450 (31.9%) from middle-HDI and 694 (49.3%) from high-HDI countries. The most common operations performed were appendectomy, small bowel resection, pyloromyotomy and correction of intussusception. After adjustment for patient and hospital risk factors, child mortality at 30 days was significantly higher in low-HDI (adjusted OR 7.14 (95% CI 2.52 to 20.23), p<0.001) and middle-HDI (4.42 (1.44 to 13.56), p=0.009) countries compared with high-HDI countries, translating to 40 excess deaths per 1000 procedures performed.Conclusions: Adjusted mortality in children following emergency abdominal surgery may be as high as 7 times greater in low-HDI and middle-HDI countries compared with high-HDI countries. Effective provision of emergency essential surgery should be a key priority for global child health agendas.

  • Impact of Interatrial Communication on Left Ventricle Performance in Patients with Significant Post-tricuspid Shunt.
  • 2016
  • Ingår i: Pediatric Cardiology. - : Springer Science and Business Media LLC. - 0172-0643 .- 1432-1971. ; 37:3, s. 582-592
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Infants with post-tricuspid valve shunts (PTS) may benefit from interatrial communication (IAC). The effect of IAC on left ventricular (LV) performance in these patients was studied. IAC was documented prospectively in 55 patients with PTS. Clinical status, echocardiographic dimensions of LV, mitral inflow Doppler, tissue Doppler velocities and time intervals were measured. Creatinine kinase (CK), CKMB, troponin-I and NT pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT pro-BNP) were measured. Patients were divided into four groups: (A) PTS but no IAC (n = 32); (B) PTS and IAC (n = 23); (C) VSD but no IAC (n = 16); and (D) VSD and IAC (n = 19). Group A had more frequent mitral regurgitation (p = 0.041), larger mitral annulus (1.80 vs. 1.30 cm, p < 0.0001) and larger LV systolic and diastolic dimensions (2.01 vs. 1.40 and 3.28 vs. 2.35 cm, p < 0.001) than group B. The E-wave deceleration time tended to be longer in group A (121.0 vs. 106.8 ms, p = 0.06). By tissue Doppler, group A had E'- and S-waves significantly taller (15.51 vs. 13.14 and 7.69 vs. 6.72 cm, p = 0.04 and p = 0.005, respectively) than group B. Also, NT pro-BNP was significantly higher in group A (1116.15 vs. 458.73 pg/ml, p = 0.028). Group C had significant larger mitral z-score values (1.2 vs. 0.01, p < 0.001), larger LV diameter z-score (p = 0.001) and higher NT pro-BNP level (1477.37 vs. 451.66 pg/ml, p = 0.001) than group D. There was no significant difference in the clinical status between the groups. In children with PTS, the presence of IAC could be beneficial. Their echocardiographic parameters and biomarker show better systolic and diastolic LV performance.
