Herein, we report a case of emergency cesarean section after severe maternal drug intoxication in late pregnancy. At a 38-week-gestation, a 32-year-old woman with a 10-year history of bipolar disorder took olanzapine (200 mg), diazepam (20 mg), and zolpidem (200 mg) as part of a suicidal attempt. Given her unconscious state and the evident concern regarding the toxic effects of the drugs on the fetus, a cesarean section was performed immediately. The patient gave birth to a male baby with Apgar scores of 5 at 1 and 8 at 5 minutes. The baby showed dyspnea and decreased activity directly after birth. After supportive care, the condition of both mother and baby improved and both were discharged.

목적: 양측 고도 난청은 신생아 집중치료실에서 치료를 하였던 신생아나 미숙아인 경우 위험률이 증가한다. 이에 저자들은 1,500 g 미만으로 출생한 미숙아를 대상으로 난청을 유발할 수 있는 인자들을 알아보고자 하였다. 방법: 2008년 12월부터 2011년 2월까지 부산대학교 어린이병원 신생아 중환자실에 입원한 1,500 g 미만의 미숙아 65명을 대상으로 난청의 위험 인자들의 의무 기록을 후향적으로 조사하였다. 청력 검사는 교정 연령 37주 이상이 되었을 때 ABR로 시행하였으며, 처음 검사에서 정상 청력인 환아와 난청인 환아로 분류하였다. 결과: 65명의 환아 중에서 34명은 정상으로 나왔고, 31명은 난청을 보였다(47.7%). 난청을 보인 환아 중에서 일상 생활에 지장을 주는 중도 이상의 난청을 가진 환아는 10명(15.4%) 이었다. 이들의 위험인자를 비교해본 결과 비정상군에서 청력 검사를 시행했던 시기가 늦었고, 출생 체중이 적었으며, 기계 환기를 했던 기간이 길었고, 생후 1주일간 동맥혈 가스 분석 결과 최저 산소 분압이 낮았고, 이뇨제의 누적 용량이 의미 있게 많았다 (P<0.05). 이 위험 인자를 경도 난청과 중/고도 난청/농으로 나누고 출생 체중으로 보정한 다인자 분석을 하니 5분 Apgar 점수가 증가할 때마다 중/고도 난청/농의 가능성은 낮아지고 (OR=0.34, 95% CI: 0.13-0.89), 기계 환기의 기간이 길어질 때마다 중/고도 난청/농의 가능성은 증가하였다(OR=1.06, 95% CI: 1.01-1.12). 31명의 난청 환아 중에 추적 검사를 시행한 17명 중 16명이 호전을 보였고(94.1%), ABR로 재검을 한 8명 중 7명은 호전이 될 때까지 평균 5.6개월이 소요되었으며, 1명만이 양측 농으로 나와 보청기를 착용하였다. 결론: 1,500 g 미만의 미숙아에게 처음 시행한 청력 선별 검사에서 중도 이상의 난청에 영향을 미치는 인자들은 낮은 5분 Apgar점수와 장기간의 인공 호흡기 사용이었고, 대부분이 5-6개월 이내에 청력에 호전을 보여 수개월간은 추적 검사를 시행하면서 회복되기를 기다려도 될 것으로 생각된다.

목 적:신생아 집중치료술이 발달함에 따라 미숙아 및 극소 저체중 출생아 등의 고위험 신생아의 생존율이 크게 향상되었다. 따라서 이러한 고위험 신생아의 생존율 향상과 더불어 생존 환아에서 발육 지연, 뇌성마비, 청력 저하 등 신경학적 발달 이상을 보이는 환아의 수도 증가하여 이들 환아들의 이상을 보다 조기에 발견하기 위해 추적 관찰의 필요성이 증대되고 있다. 저자들은 신생아 집중 치료실에서 치료 후 퇴원한 환아 중 위험한 주산기 인자들로 인하여 발달 이상의 위험도가 상대적으로 높아 고위험 신생아로 추적 관리를 받고 있는 환아에서 Bayley 발달 검사를 이용하여 발달 이상의 위험 인자를 확인하기 위하여 연구를 시행하였다. 방 법:2002년 1월부터 2005년 11월까지 인제대학교 의과대학 상계백병원 신생아 집중 치료실에 입원하였던 신생아 중에서 퇴원 후 외래에서 추적 관리하였던 환아 중 Bayley 발달 검사를 시행한 94례를 대상으로 하였다. 연구 대상은 32주 미만의 재태 연령, 극소 저체중 출생아, 5점 이하의 Apgar 점수, 뇌 초음파 및 자기 공명 검사상 뇌실 내 출혈 혹은 뇌실주위 백색질 연화증 등의 이상, 신생아 소생술을 시행한 경우, 신생아 경련 또는 선천성 감염 중 한 가지 이상의 요인이 있었던 환아이다. 대상 환아들의 발달 검사로 Bayley 발달 검사(Bayley Scales of Infant Development II)를 임상심리치료사가 시행하였고, MDI와 PDI를 분석에 이용하였다. 결 과:뇌 초음파 및 자기 공명 검사는 MDI, PDI와 각각 통계적인 연관성을 보였으며(P<0.05, P<0.001), 뇌실주위 백색질 연화증의 경우 MDI는 $70.10{\pm}28.68$, PDI는 $69.70{\pm}24.91$로 의미 있게 낮은 점수를 보였다. MDI보다 PDI가 뇌의 영상학적 검사 소견과 상관관계가 더 큰 것으로 나타났다. PDI는 1분 Apgar 점수 및 극소 저체중 출생아와도 유의한 상관관계가 있었다(P<0.05, P<0.05). Bayley 발달 검사 결과는 성별, 재태 연령, 신생아 소생술 여부, 신생아 경련과 유의한 연관성이 없었다. 결 론:신생아 집중 치료실에서 치료받은 고위험 신생아를 추적 관찰하며 Bayley 발달 검사를 시행하였을 때, 검사 결과에 독립적으로 영향을 미치는 위험 인자는 뇌의 영상학적 검사 소견, 1분 Apgar 점수 및 극소 저체중 출생아였다. 그 중 뇌의 영상학적 검사 소견상 이상이 있는 경우 발달 장애의 가능성이 가장 높고, 그 외의 위험 요인에 대해서도 주기적인 추적 관찰이 중요할 것으로 생각된다.

목적: ESBL 생성 균주는 1990년대 접어들어 신생아 중환자실에서 중요한 감염증 원인균 중하나로 대두되었다. 본 연구에서는 ESBL 생성하는 E. coli 및 K. pneumoniae에 감염된 신생아들과 ESBL 음성인 E. coli 및 K. pneumoniae에 감염된 신생아들에 있어서 임상적인 특징 및 혈액학적 검사 소견 등의 차이점을 알아보고자 본 연구를 시행하였다. 방법: 2005년 1월부터 2010년 9월까지 인제대학교 상계백병원 신생아 중환자실에 입원 한 환아 중 배양 검사에서 E. coli 또는 K. pneumoniae가 분리된 48명, 55균주를 대상으로 ESBL 생성 여부에 따라서 두 군으로 구분하여 임상적 특징 및 혈액학적 검사 소견을 의무기록을 토대로 조사하여 두 군간 비교를 시행하였다. 결과: 배양 검사에서 ESBL 양성은 총 18명 20균주였고, ESBL 음성은 총 30명 35균주 였다. ESBL 생성 20균주 중 E. coli 가 13균주, K. pneumoniae가 7균주 였다. ESBL 양성 균주와 ESBL 음성 균주 소변배양 검사에서 각각 10균주 및 23균주로 가장 많이 검출되었다. 1분 및 5분 Apgar 점수는 ESBL 양성 환아군에서 통계학적으로 유의하게 더 낮았고(P=0.002, P=0.001). 산소 공급 필요성은 ESBL 양성 환아군에서 더 많았고(56% vs. 27%;P=0.005), 산소 공급 일수도 ESBL 양성 환아군에서 더 길었다(15.8${\pm}$38.43일 vs. 4.3${\pm}$12.5일; P=0.008). 배양 검사 양성 시점의 발열, 무호흡, 산모력, 성별, 재태 연령, 출생 체중에서는 두 군간 유의한 차이는 없었다. 혈액학적 검사에서 배양 검사 양성 시점 빈혈은 ESBL 양성 환아군에서 더 많았으나(33% vs. 7%;P=0.040) 혈색소, 백혈구수, 혈소판수 및CRP는 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 결론: ESBL 양성 환아군이 음성인 환아군에 비해 Apgar 점수가 낮았고 상대적으로 빈혈이 더 빈번하였다. 출생 시에 낮은 Apgar 점수를 보이는 환아들 중에서 기존 항생제를 사용 중인 환아에서 감염증의 새로운 증상이 보이거나 환아의 상태가 악화되는 경우에는 조기에 carbapenem 항생제를 사용하는 것을 고려할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

This research is to study about the weight-change of a pregnant woman, conditions of the woman and an infant. The weight-change of a mother during pregnancy was observed and that was expressed as the basis on the body mass index of a mother before pregnancy. The effects of weight-changes on both the discomfort, complications of pregnant mother and the condition of an infant were also investigated. Thus we set a purpose that this study would help pregnant woman and an infant to maintain and enhance their health conditions by proper weight control through nursing mediation. This study was performed in a certain hospital of university in seoul from Feb. 1. 2000 to Mar. 31. 2000. We explained the purpose of this study to the hospital institution and obtained consent of investigation. 152 inpatients who were in condition from PA 37 weeks to PA 42 weeks were the subject of this study. The research materials were made through of question paper that inpatients make answer by themselves and investigation paper. The question paper was about general background, weight and height before pregnancy and discomfort of the physical degree. And the investigation paper was about parity, maternal weight(late pregnancy), high pregnancy, delivery method, hemoglobin level, Apgar score, fetal weight. Physical discomfort was measured using the implement made by Kim hae won(1996) (chronbach's ${\alpha}=0.85$). SPSS was used to do statistics for managing and analyzing data. The results of this study were like followings. 1. The mean value of gained weight during pregnancy was about 13.8kg within from 3 kg to 26 kg. Among 152 research candidates, the gained weight of 80(52.6%) candidates remained within an ideal range. But that of 37 candidates(24.3%) became less than the ideal range. Also that of 35 candidates(23.0%) became over than the ideal range. 2. In the investigation of the relation between the weight change of a pregnant woman and her condition, the scores to represent physical discomfort were middle in all candidates. And the physical discomfort of over weight-gained group was more than that of low weight-gained group, but there was no difference in statistics(F=0.234, p=0.791). The weight-changes of pregnant woman didn't have an influence with the high risk of pregnancy(F=0.509, p=0.477). Also, the weight-changes didn't have an influence on delivery method($x^2=3.825$, p=0.148). However, in the investigation of the relation between weight-change and hemoglobin level, the change of hemoglobin level was highest in over weight gained group(F=3.062, p=0.05). 3. In the investigation of the weight-change of pregnant woman and the condition of infant. the weight changes didn't have an influence on both 1 min Apgar score(F=0.157, p=0.855) and 5 min Apgar score(F=0.030, p=0.970) of infant. Also, in the investigation of weight-change of a pregnant woman and weight difference of a infant with Pearson Correlation Coefficient, the weight-change of a pregnant woman affected vastly the weight of a infant. It was also found that the more pregnant woman gained in weight, the more did gain weighty infants. This relation was in net proportion(r=0.256, p=0.001). In conclusion, these results suggest that the weight-changes during pregnancy in Korea women of these days are more increased than that of the past days and individual variation in weight-changes is very high. Also, these results suggest that the changed hemoglobin level of a mother and weight of an infant were meaningfully affected by the weight-changes of a pregnant woman during pregnancy. However, the physical discomfort of a pregnant woman, the high risks of pregnancy, the delivery method and Apgar score of an infant were not affected by the weight-changes during pregnancy. Because the recommendation suggesting the ideal weight-change, used this study, is basis on the subject of American women, therefore, these results also suggest the necessity of such recommendation which is subject to Korean women.

Purpose: This study was done to evaluate the effects of antenatal depression on birth outcomes. Methods: The participants were 255 pregnant women who were followed in a prospective study. Of these, 197 cases were examined included birth weight, Apgar scores at 5 minute, premature contraction, complication of labor, delivery types and laboratory data. Descriptive statistics, ANOVA, Chi square test of linear by linear association, Kruskal Wallis test, Relative Risk, univariate and adjusted multiple logistic regression were used for data analysis with SPSS/Win. Results: Level of antenatal depression was associated with low birth weight ($x^2$=7.69, p=.010). High risk pregnancy was a predictor of low birth weight (OR=6.98 [1.21-40.30]) and baby's weight (OR=2.12, [1.05-4.28]). Prepregnancy body mass index (BMI) was a predictor of complications in labor (OR=3.59, [1.03-12.48]). But there were no significant effects of antenatal depression on other birth outcomes. Conclusion: The results of this study indicate that women with antenatal depression, high risk pregnancy, prepregnancy $BMI{\geq}23kg/M^2$ should be monitored and managed to ensure favorable birth outcomes.

Purpose: This was a cross sectional descriptive study to introduce the Infants Coma Scale (ICS), describe mental status of high risk infants using ICS and explore the relationships between ICS and clinical variables in infants hospitalized in a neonatal intensive care unit of a university hospital in Korea. Methods: After ICS was developed and tested by the authors, a research nurse evaluated the mental status of the infants using the English version of ICS and obtained clinical information on the infants from their medical records. Results: Data from 88 infants were analyzed. About 60% were male, 90% were preterm births, and 40% had pathologic abnormalities. Their mean gestational age was 32.4 (${\pm}3.50$) weeks and the mean birth weight was 1,842 (${\pm}728.6$) grams. The Cronbach's alpha for the ICS was .78. There was a statistically significant positive correlation between ICS total score and five clinical variables including gestational age, birth weight, 1 and 5 min Apgar scores and respiration status. Conclusion: Mental status is an important parameter in nursing assessment. ICS is a valid and reliable instrument, which clinicians can easily use to evaluate the mental status of high risk infants.

To investigate the effect of coffee consumption during pregnancy on serum lipids in maternal and infants` umbilical cord blood, 76 cases of newborn infants and women delivered o f a child who had delivered at hospital located in Chung-Ju city from Feb. 1, 1996 to Aug. 31, 1996 were studied. The gestational ages of cases were 37 to 42 weeks and the average maternal ages were $28.3{\pm}4.63$ years old without any other medical or obstetric problems. Infants` Apgar scores and birth weights were decreased by above 3 cups per day of coffee consumption during pregnancy. No relationships between coffee consumption during pregnancy and maternal serum lipid levels were observed. However, serum total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol levels in infants` umbilical cord were significantly increased with increasing coffee consumption during pregnancy. In contrary to coffee consumption, alcohol drinking habits affected maternal serum lipid levels but not serum lipid levels in infants` umbilical cord blood. Coffee consumption during pregnancy increased caffeine concentration in infants` umbilical cord blood. These results suggest that caffeine from maternal consumption of coffee can easily pass to the fetus and significantly affect serum lipids levels in infants` umbilical cord blood rather than those in maternal blood.

Purpose: To develop and evaluate a simple screening tool to assess hearing loss in newborns. A derived score was compared with the standard clinical practice tool. Methods: This cohort study was designed to screen the hearing of newborns using transiently evoked otoacoustic emission and auditory brain stem response, and to determine the risk factors associated with hearing loss of newborns in 3 tertiary hospitals in Northern Thailand. Data were prospectively collected from November 1, 2010 to May 31, 2012. To develop the risk score, clinical-risk indicators were measured by Poisson risk regression. The regression coefficients were transformed into item scores dividing each regression-coefficient with the smallest coefficient in the model, rounding the number to its nearest integer, and adding up to a total score. Results: Five clinical risk factors (Craniofacial anomaly, Ototoxicity, Birth weight, family history [Relative] of congenital sensorineural hearing loss, and Apgar score) were included in our COBRA score. The screening tool detected, by area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, more than 80% of existing hearing loss. The positive-likelihood ratio of hearing loss in patients with scores of 4, 6, and 8 were 25.21 (95% confidence interval [CI], 14.69-43.26), 58.52 (95% CI, 36.26-94.44), and 51.56 (95% CI, 33.74-78.82), respectively. This result was similar to the standard tool (The Joint Committee on Infant Hearing) of 26.72 (95% CI, 20.59-34.66). Conclusion: A simple screening tool of five predictors provides good prediction indices for newborn hearing loss, which may motivate parents to bring children for further appropriate testing and investigations.

This study was designed to investigate the effect of one-to-one labor support on labor pain, labor stress response, childbirth experience and neonatal status for primipara by a quasi experiment (nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest design), from April 30, 1999 to February 20, 2000. The subjects of this experiment consisted of eighty two primipara with single gestation, full term, uncomplicated pregnancies. Forty one were in the experimental group and forty one in the control group. Their mean age was 25.95 years, their mean gestation period was 39.9 weeks. A caring package of one-to-one labor support had three components. Physical support consisted of massage, back pressure, touch. Emotional support was provided by a continuous nurse's presence, acceptance and encouragement. Informational support involved teaching breathing skills, relaxation skills and knowledge about the labor process. Data assessed labor pain, pulse rate and blood pressure to measure labor stress response. Also, in measuring the value of labor stress response, plasma epinephrine, plasma norepinephrine and serum cortisol were measured. In the 24 hours after birth, the data for the postpartum mother's childbirth experiences was collected. Umbilical cord arterial blood pH, one minute and five minute Apgar score were measured after birth. Data was analyzed by t-test, $x^2$-test, repeated measures ANOVA, ANCOVA with SAS Program. The results were as follows; 1. Labor pain was significantly low in the experimental group(P=.016). 2. No significant group effects were found, but significant time effects were found for plasma epinephrine, norepinephrine, serum cortisol, pulse rate and blood pressure. 3. The childbirth experience of the experimental group was significantly more positive than the control group (P = .005). 4. The umbilical cord arterial blood pH of the experimental group was significantly higher than the control group(P=.014). There was no significant difference between the two groups in neonatal one minute and five minute Apgar scores. In conclusion, these findings indicate that one-to-one labor support could be effective in decreasing labor pain, and increasing positive childbirth experiences, also increasing the neonatal umbilical cord arterial blood pH for primipara. So, one-to-one labor support could be applied as an effective nursing treatment for primipara.
