Do [ Clinical efficacy of preferred use of high-frequency oscillatory ventilation in treatment of neonatal pulmonary hemorrhage ]?
Compared with the rescue use of HFOV, preferred use of HFOV can better improve oxygenation function, reduce the incidence of VAP, shorten the course of disease, and increase cure rate while not increasing the incidence of adverse effects.
Non-localizing preoperative scans may result from ectopic parathyroid adenoma or presence of a multinodular goiter in PHPT. When presented with negative preoperative studies, we propose that the patient be scheduled for bilateral neck examination with intraoperative PTH assay rather than for additional preoperative studies. The surgeon's level of experience with four gland exploration and a thorough understanding of normal and aberrant positioning of parathyroid glands are imperative for patient safety and treatment, especially when localization studies have failed.
