Abstract

In this study patients with Upper Airway Obstruction (UAO) cared in Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) from February 2001 to September 2003 were retrospectively evaluated from their charts. Seven male and 5 female aged between 35 days and 5 years (median 13.2 months) with a diagnosis of UAO were entered into the study. Infectious etiology is the most leading cause of UAO, followed by iatrogenic and tumoral etiologies. Ten patients had respiratory distress at the time of admission; 9 of them entubated and the other öne required emergence trakeostomy. Three patients undenvent elective tracheostomy after initial entubation. The median time was 2(1-18) days for the patients who need artificial airway. Median hospitalization time in PICU was 17.1 (3-90) days. While the patient with primary immune deficiency reguired tracheostomy was died secondary to accidentally decannulation in follow-up period outside PICU, UAO was cured in the other patients

Özet

Bu çalışmada Şubat 2001- Eylül 2003 tarihleri arasında üst havayolu obstruksiyonu (ÜHYO) tanısıyla yoğun bakım gereksinimi gösteren hastalar dosyalarından geriye dönük olarak değerlendirildi. Çalışmaya ÜHYO tanısı alan, yaşları 35 gün- 15 yıl arasında değişen (ortanca: 13.2 ay), 7 erkek ve 5 kız hasta alındı. Enfeksiyöz nedenler ÜHYO nedenleri arasında ilk sırayı almaktaydı, bunu iyatrojenik ve tümoral etkenler izlemekteydi. Hastalardan 10'unda başvuru anında solunum sıkıntısı bulguları vardı. Bu hastaların 9' unda endotrakeal entübasyon uygulanırken, 1 hastaya acil trakeotomi açıldı. Entübasyon uygulanan hastalardan 3' üne izlemlerinde elektif trakeostomi uygulandı. Hastaların yapay havayolu gereksinimi gösterdikleri süre ortanca değeri 2 (1-18) gün, yoğun bakımda kalış süreleri ise 17.1 (3-90) gündü. Tam havayolu obstruksiyonu olan criptosporidyum larenjitli bir olgu yoğun bakım ünitesi sonrasındaki servis izlemi esnasında trakeostomi kanülünün tıkanma komplikasyonu sonucunda kaybedildi. Diğer hastalarda ÜHYO şifa ile sonlandı.
