Hospital admissions of children from the emergency department: are decisions regarding children on public assistance different?
These data suggest that children with lower socioeconomic status and limited primary care resources are more likely to be admitted from the ED for nonmedical reasons than children with commercial insurance resources or a private physician.
DR resuscitation of VLBW infants can be initiated with less oxygen even with room air without concomitant overt morbidity. This change was associated with more infants with an initial PaO(2) <80 mm Hg and lower saturation values on admission as well as a lower FiO(2) requirement at 24 h.
