Objetivo: Determinar el perfil microbiológico y la susceptibilidad antibiótica de los aislamientos bacterianos obtenidos en hemocultivos de pacientes con sepsis neonatal en el Hospital Nacional Ramiro Prialé Prialé de Huancayo, durante los años 2009-2011. Metodología: Se realizó un estudio descriptivo, retrospectivo y transversal; en base a reportes de hemocultivos de pacientes con sepsis neonatal durante los años 2009-2011. Resultados: La incidencia de sepsis neonatal fue de 47,66 x 1000 NV. Los gérmenes gram positivos fueron los agentes etiológicos más frecuentes, SCN se halló en el 70,63%; seguido de S. aureus en el 11,11% y B. cepacia en un 4,76% de casos. En los episodios de sepsis neonatal por gram positivos en el 100% de los casos el antibiograma reportó ser sensible a Vancomicina, Tigeciclina, Linezolid. Así mismo se encontró en su gran mayoría resistencia a Ampic...

El empleo de la resonancia magnética (RM) en niños puede requerir inmovilidad bajo sedación para obtener una adecuada imagen. Dexmedetomidina y propofol son drogas usadas en este escenario. El objetivo de este metaanálisis fue comparar la eficacia y seguridad de dexmedetomidina con propofol en niños sometidos a RM bajo sedación. Se realizó una búsqueda sistemática de la literatura en PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, CINAHL y Web of Science. Los criterios de inclusión fueron ensayos clínicos aleatorizados, que compararan dexmedetomidina y propofol para sedación en pacientes menores de 18 años sometidos a RM, ASA<4, (sin retraso en el desarrollo, deterioro cognitivo o compromiso del sistema nervioso central). Los datos fueron extraídos por dos autores independientes y analizados usando la versión online del Review manager. Se incluyeron seis ensayos clínicos que involucrar...

Introduction. In twin pregnancies with a diagnosis of Reversed Arterial Perfusion (TRAP), sequence, is highly recommendedto be managed by fetoscopic fetal surgery through bipolar photocoagulation, in order to improve the prognosis of one ofthe fetuses (pump fetus), in contrast of the other one which is acardiac and / or anencephalic. In this regards anesthesiamanagement has to ensure maternal and fetal safety and provide excellent surgical conditions. Objective. To describe theanesthetic management of a patient diagnosed with TRAP sequence scheduled for bipolar fetoscopic-photocoagulation.

Objective: Neuroaxial analgesia is the most effective technique to treat labor pain, however, there are still concerns regarding the undesirable effects. Objective: To evaluate the association between epidural analgesia maintained by programmed intermittent epidural boluses (PEIB) and maternal perinatal complications.  Materials and methods: Observational, analytical study of Cohort type in pregnant women between 18 and 35 years, in labor with cervical dilation of 4 centimeters or more, grouped in two cohorts according to administration or not of epidural analgesia: In pregnant women of Group A, administered bolus epidural analgesia, with maintenance by BEIP with bupivacaine 0.0625% and fentanyl 25 ug in 10cc every 60 minutes; in pregnant women of group B, epidural analgesia was not administered. Results: The duration of the dilation and expulsion period was longer in the group...
