Method Children who required endotracheal intubation for >24 h were included in this prospective cohort study. Children were monitored daily and underwent flexible fiberoptic laryngoscopy after extubation. Those with moderate-to-severe abnormalities underwe...

Methods: All patients between 30 days and 5 years of age who required endotracheal intubation in the pediatric intensive care unit between 2013 and 2014 were included in this prospective study. They were monitored daily and COMFORT-B scores were obtained. Flexible fiber-optic l...

Reconstrução laringotraqueal em único estágio para tratamento de estenose subgl...
Smith,Mariana Magnus; Schweiger,Cláudia; Manica,Denise; Meotti,Camila Degen; Eneas,Larissa Valency; Kuhl,Gabriel; Marostica,Paulo Jose CauduroINTRODUÇÃO: Nas últimas décadas, a reconstrução da via aérea tornou-se o tratamento de escolha para estenose subglótica (ESG) na criança, realizada em único ou múltiplos estágios. Há indícios na literatura de que a cirurgia em um só tempo é mais efetiva. OBJETIVO: Avaliar o índice de sucesso da laringotraqueoplastia (LTP) e ressecção cricotraqueal (RCT) em único estágio nos pacientes tratados no nosso hospital....

Sekine,Leo; Manica,Denise; Piltcher,Otávio B.; Lopes,Camila J.; Segatto,Majoriê M.; Paz,Alessandra A.; Silla,Lúcia M. R.The objective of this work was to evaluate the diagnostic and prognostic performance of a traditional imaging staging system for rhinosinusitis in the bone marrow transplantation (BMT) scenario. A retrospective cohort study was carried out at a bone marrow transplantation referral center involving subjects who underwent allogeneic or autologous BMT from September 1st 2005 to September 31st 2007 and later evolve...
