Endotracheal adrenaline use a newborn with pulmonary hemorrhage: A case report

Abstract

Pulmonary hemorrhage in the newborn is an acute and idiopathic event characterized by discharge of bloody fluid from the respiratory tract or endotracheal tube. In this case report we discussed 5 hours old neonate with pulmonary bleeding. We showed that endotracheal adrenaline use, gastric lavage with cold water and use of vitamin K in the treatment of neonates with pulmonary bleeding might shorten the duration of treatment and lower the mortality rate.

Yenidoğanda endotrakeal yolla verilen adrenalin ile tedavi edilen pulmoner kanama: Olgu sunumu

Öz

Pulmoner kanama bebeklerde görülen ve nedeni tam olarak aydınlatılamamış olan akciğerlerde kanama ile karakterize bir klinik durumdur. Bu olgu sunumunda yaşamının 5.saatinde pulmoner kanaması görülen bir bebek tartışılmıştır. Etyolojisi net olarak saptanamayan pulmoner kanama vakalarında endotrakeal yol ile adrenalin tedavisi, midenin soğuk mayi ile yıkanması ve K vitamini tedavisinin birlikte yapılması durumunda iyileşmeyi hızlandıracağı ve mortaliteyi azaltacağı kanaatinde varıldı
