Although chest X-rays are the initial imaging technique of choice for low respiratory infections with or without dyspnea, few articles have reported the radiologic findings in children with COVID-19. Objective To describe the clinical, laboratory, and chest X-ray findings in pediatric patients with...
Introduction: Chest x-ray (CXR) has been shown to be an effective detection tool for clinically significant trauma. We evaluated differences in findings between CXR and computed tomography of the chest (CCT), their impact on clinical management and the performance of the CXR.Journal of Pediatric...
METHODS: Image sequences of polymethyl methacrylate phantoms approximating chest sizes typical of pediatric patients were captured using a modern flat-panel receptor based x-ray imaging system. Tin was used to simulate iodine-based contrast medium used in clinical procedures. Measurements of tin detail...
The sub-optimal catheter tip placement described in the study (22%; n = 43) was occurred more frequently than desired, and is also likely to be an underestimate of true events, as it relied on accurate interpretation of radiological images (i.e., chest X-ray, fluoroscopy). These ...
over 90% of the cases had 9-lead ECG data with three missing chest leads, V2, V4, and V6, because it was usually intractable to put all 6 chest leads on such a young child’s chest. Thus, we built our framework based on 9-lead pediatric ECG data consisting of I, II, III, aVR...
Use portable chest x-ray. If incorrect placement: Remove the airway device, ventilate the patient using the ambu bag for a short period of time, and then reattempt placement. If correct placement: Secure placement of the airway device. ...
Laboratory investigations done on the same day of his presentation, including complete blood count (CBC), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and chest X-ray, were noncontributory. On CBC, total white blood cell (WBC) count was 5800 µL with 50% granulocytes, 45% lymphocytes, 1% ...
body PET scanners offer the potential of imaging with a radiation exposure equivalent to a chest X-ray.[1][2][3]This is likely to be valuable and transformative in pediatric oncology patients that may require multiple successive scans to assess response to treatment and monitor disease ...
RAY E.HELFER* and CARL H. SLATER*, Univ. of Colorado, School of Medicine, Denver, Colo. (introduced by Arthur McEIfresh). This paper describes a reliable and valid instrument for assaying the process by which a clinical diagnosis is reached. 'The Diagnostic Management Problem' (DMP) is ...
Lung ultrasound is more accurate than supine anterior chest radiograph for diagnosing pneumothorax [98]. 3. Relevant pediatric-specific literature The sensitivity of the FAST examination for hemoperitoneum in pediatric trauma patients is variable, ranging from 31–100 % [99–101]. The sensitivity im...
