Giriş-Amaç: Çalışmamızda Yenidoğan yoğun bakım ünitesin (YYBÜ)’deki bebeklerde kardiyoloji konsültasyonu istenme nedenleri ve kardiyovasküler sistem (KVS) hastalıklarının sıklığı araştırılmıştır. Ayrıca doğumsal kalp hastalıkları (DKH) için risk faktörleri ve mortalite oranları belirlenmeye çalışılmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Mart 2005 ile Mart 2006 tarihleri arasında YYBÜ’de yatırılarak izlenen 1146 bebekten kalp hastalığı şüphesi ile ekokardiyografik inceleme yapılan 119 bebeğin (çalışma grubu) KVS bulguları geriye dönük olarak değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgular: Yenidoğan yoğun bakım ünitesinde en sık kardiyoloji konsültasyonu istenme nedeni üfürüm (%52.9) idi. Tüm bebeklerde ve çalışma grubunda DKH sıklığı sırasıyla %3.49 ve %33.6 olarak belirlendi. En sık karşılaşılan asiyanotik DKH %27.5 oranıyla izole PDA idi. Siyanotik DKH olarak en sık görülen defekt %12.5 oranıyla büyük arter transpozisyonu oldu. Çalışma grubunda bulunan 39 preterm bebeğin %17.9’unda semptomatik PDA belirlendi. Yenidoğanlarda aritmi insidansı %1.6 olarak bulundu. Atrioventriküler (AV) tam blok ve SVT birer olguda saptandı. Annede diyabet öyküsü 15 olguda ve genetik sendromlar (Down sendromu, Turner sendromu, Di George sendromu ve konjenital rubella sendromu) 11 olguda belirlendi. Eşlik eden genetik sendromlar ve ekstrakardiyak anomaliler DKH için en sık rastlanılan risk faktörleri idi (%90.9 ve %62.5). Yenidoğan yoğun bakım ünitesinde bir yıl içinde 57 yenidoğan bebek (%4.9) kaybedilmiştir veölümlerin %21’inde eşlik eden DKH saptanmıştır. Sonuçlar: Yenidoğan bebeklerde duyulan patolojik üfürümler en önemli DKH bulgusudur. Prematüre bebekler, kromozomal veya ekstrakardiyak anomalileri saptanan olgular ve diyabetik anne bebeklerinde sıklıkla eşlik eden KVS hastalıklarıyla karşılaşılmaktadır. Yenidoğan yoğun bakım ünitesinde izlediğimiz bebeklerde ölümlerin en önemli nedenleri arasında DKH önemini korumaktadır.
Aims: We evaluated the reasons of cardiac consultation and the rate of cardiovascular system (CVS) disease in neonates we followed at our NICU. Risk factors for congenital heart disease (CHD) and mortality rates were also investigated.Material- Methods: During March 2005 – 2006 period, among 1146 neonates hospitalized at our NICU, we evaluated retrospectively the CVS findings of 119 neonates (Study group) examined by echocardiography.Results: The most frequent (52.9%) reason for cardiology consultation was cardiac murmur. The incidences of CHD in all neonates and the study group were found as 3.49% and 33.6%, respectively. The most frequent acyanotic CHD and cyanotic CHD were patent ductus arteriosus and transposition of great arteries with a prevalence of 27.5% and 12.5%, respectively. Among 39 preterm newborns included in our study group, the incidence of symptomatic PDA was determined as 17.9%. The incidence of neonatal arrhythmia was found to be 1.6%. Supraventricular tachycardia and complet atrioventricular block were seen in 2 infants.Maternal diabetes mellitus and genetic syndromes (Down syndrome, Turner syndrome, Di-George syndrome, congenital rubella syndrome) were determined in 15 and 11 cases, respectively. Genetic syndromes and extracardiac abnormalities were the most common risk factors for CHD with ratios of 90.9% and 62.5%, respectively. Mortality rate of all neonates was 4.9% (57 cases) and 21% of them had CHD.Conclusion: Patological heart murmur is the most important clinical findings for CHD in neonates. In this study, CVS disease were the most frequently observed in neonates associated with premature, genetic syndrome or extracardiac abnormalities and maternal diabetes mellitus. Among the mortality reasons of neonates, CHD still maintains its importance at our intensive care unit

The publication language of Turkish Journal of Pediatric Disease is English.
Manuscripts submitted to the Turkish Journal of Pediatric Disease will go through a double-blind peer-review process. Each submission will be reviewed by at least two external, independent peer reviewers who are experts in the field, in order to ensure an unbiased evaluation process. The editorial board will invite an external and independent editor to manage the evaluation processes of manuscripts submitted by editors or by the editorial board members of the journal. The Editor in Chief is the final authority in the decision-making process for all submissions. Articles accepted for publication in the Turkish Journal of Pediatrics are put in the order of publication, with at least 10 original articles in each issue, taking into account the acceptance dates. If the articles sent to the reviewers for evaluation are assessed as a senior for publication by the reviewers, the section editor and the editor considering all aspects (originality, high scientific quality and citation potential), it receives publication priority in addition to the articles assigned for the next issue.
The aim of the Turkish Journal of Pediatrics is to publish high-quality original research articles that will contribute to the international literature in the field of general pediatric health and diseases and its sub-branches. It also publishes editorial opinions, letters to the editor, reviews, case reports, book reviews, comments on previously published articles, meeting and conference proceedings, announcements, and biography. In addition to the field of child health and diseases, the journal also includes articles prepared in fields such as surgery, dentistry, public health, nutrition and dietetics, social services, human genetics, basic sciences, psychology, psychiatry, educational sciences, sociology and nursing, provided that they are related to this field. can be published.
