Abstract:
Healthcare providers typically use an infant’s weight loss in the first days of life as a measurement of effective feeding. Additional feeding volumes are often recommended when the infant reaches weight loss of seven to ten percent of their birth weight. This study examined the relationship of the amount of maternal intravenous fluids (IV) given during labor, and infant maximum weight loss during hospital admission. The method was a retrospective cross-sectional review of medical records for 186 healthy mothers and their infants who delivered at a Baby Friendly™ certified hospital in southwes

Abstract:
All breastfeeding infants lose some weight in the early days of life. Conventionally, 5% to 7% loss of birth weight has been accepted as the normal and expected amount of weight loss before infants begin to gain weight steadily. When infants lose more than 7% of their birth weight, breastfeeding adequacy is sometimes questioned and formula supplementation is often given. Despite the fact that 5% to 7% is well known and commonly cited, little reliable evidence exists that supports use of this figure as a guide to practice. A systematic review of studies that focused on infant weight loss was co

Abstract:
There is increasing concern for the risk of hypernatremic dehydration in infants breastfeeding poorly. It is important to differentiate normal weight changes as infants adapt to extrauterine life from excessive weight loss from breastfeeding failure or mismanagement. We review recent data on normal weight changes in exclusively breastfeeding infants and those at risk for hypernatremic dehydration to help health professionals determine when infants require further scrutiny and supplementation. The data suggest that perinatal practices influence infant weight changes. Protecting normal birth and

What is the impact of war on non-combatants, particularly women and children? In this innovative analysis of nutritional deprivation among ordinary German citizens during the First World War, Mary Elisabeth Cox finds that the effects of the war and the Allied interdiction of food supplies—which became known in Germany as the ‘Hungerblockade’—resulted in diminished heights and weights of children far from the battlefield. During the war, Germany defiantly proclaimed that their country could not be starved out. In a military sense, this was likely to be the case, and many modern historians argue

The relationship between low birth weight (LBW) and subsequent increased risk of hypertension and renal disease in humans is now well established. The initial hypothesis suggested that an adverse intrauterine environment, reflected by LBW, would impact renal development, resulting in a low nephron number and predisposition to hypertension and renal disease. Studies in various populations have shown a direct correlation between birth weight and nephron number, and in infants, nephron numbers are reduced in those of LBW. Among Caucasian and Australian Aboriginal adults, lower nephron numbers are

Abstract:
Infection with Giardia intestinalis, a common flagellate protozoan that colonizes the lumen of the small intestine, is acquired by ingesting environmentally resistant cysts of the parasite, typically in water or food, or after contact with faecal material from infected individuals. Strains of the parasite that can potentially infect humans are also harboured by various mammals, including dogs and cattle. Manifestations include watery diarrhoea, abdominal discomfort, distension and pain, nausea and vomiting, weight loss, and malabsorption, with the infection typically being persistent and severe in individuals with certain immunodeficiencies. Chronic G. intestinalis infection can lead to micronutrient deficiencies, and impairment of growth and cognitive development in children.

Abstract:
During epidural anesthesia, local anesthetics and adjuvants are administered into the epidural space by a single-shot, intermittent, or continuous technique. Epidural analgesia is used for open thoracic surgery, major intra-abdominal surgery with extensive surgical dissection, major lower extremity surgery, and long-term pain management. Epidural anesthesia is contraindicated in pediatric patients with uncorrected coagulopathy, hemophilia, liver disease causing coagulopathy, skin infection at the insertion site, bacteremia/sepsis, or lack of parental consent. Anesthesiologists should be familiar with the current American Society of Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine guidelines regarding anticoagulation and bleeding disorders in the setting of neuraxial anesthesia before performing epidural anesthesia. In infants, the tip of the conus medullaris and dural sac are located lower in the spinal column than in adults. Additionally, because the epidural space contains less fat and fibrous tissue than in adults, in infants it is easier to insert an epidural catheter at a lower level and then to thread it up to a higher level. In infants younger than 6 months, the vertebral column remains cartilaginous, and epidural catheters can be visualized with ultrasonography. In infants, for the initial placement of the needle, there is a more subtle “give” as the ligamentum flavum is pierced than in adult patients. As a general rule, the depth of the epidural space is 1 mm/kg of body weight (e.g., the depth of the epidural space in a 10-kg child would be 10 mm). However, because wide variation exists in the depth of the epidural space, a test for loss of resistance is performed as soon as the epidural needle has entered the supraspinous ligament.

"Lack of parental interaction and support has consistently been found to be crippling to the development of young children. Spitz's (1945,1947) widely quoted study of foundling homes versus nursery care related maternal and social deprivation to increased infant mortality, susceptibility to disease, retardation in growth, and failure to achieve developmental milestones. Whereas the Spitz study compared the effects of interaction between two highly specialized environments, McCarthy and Booth (1970) found evidence of a syndrome resembling Spitz' "hospitalism" occurring in children living at home with their parents. The most prominent abnormalities they described were dwarfism and subnormal weight/height ratios, interestingly, with little or no evidence of malnutrition. Behaviorally, the children exhibited varying degrees of bodily neglect, apathy, subnormal intelligence, and the inability to play. When these children from 10 families were removed from their homes and placed in the hospital, where it is assumed that a different type of interaction occurred between them and the staff than occurred in their homes, their symptoms, including the dwarfism, were reversed in most cases. While this study was focused explicitly on mothers, like so many studies of mother-infant interaction, the kind of relationship that developed could not have been made possible without either the absence of a father or other available caregiver(s). Behind many studies of negative dyadic interactions is a larger family drama. Such patterns are significantly more difficult to conceptualize and to investi-gate than the study of dyads. At the opposite end of the Ufe cycle, a study by Greene, Goldstein, and Moss (1972) of the psychosocial aspects of sudden death found that among men who developed myocardial infarction, considerable psychological distress had been evoked by circumstances in which there were departures or current disappointing conflicts between the patient and son or daughter, especially a son. Van Heijingen (1966) noted a similar pattern when he reported that rejection by a loved one frequently preceded the clinical emergence of coronary disease. Loss of social supports—particularly loss of a spouse—has been implicated over and over again in rapidly deteriorating health and, not uncommonly, death. Studies of psychosocial correlates of the onset of cancer repeatedly point to torn family relationships as high risk factors in the development of cancer. Similarly, when Parkes, Benjamin, and Fitzgerald (1969) followed the death rates of 4,486 widowers of 55 years of age and older for 9 years fol-lowing the death of their wives, they found that 213 died during the first 6 months of bereavement, 40% over the expected death rate for married men."
