Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a disorder of development of the neural retina and its vasculature that may impact vision in vulnerable preterm neonates for a lifetime. Clinical care of infants with ROP decreases the likelihood of blindness, but abnormal vision is c...

The overall goal of this project is to identify genes that are involved in the development of airflow obstruction and airway inflammation in asthmatics, and to determine whether polymorphisms in these differentially expressed genes predispose individuals to develop asth...

The aim of this study is to evaluate whether the targeted hemoglobin increment (2 grams per decilitre) in the patient can be predicted from the hemoglobin dose/weight of the blood bag transfused. In the test group, the hemoglobin dose needed will be calculated, whereas ...

Asthma is the number one cause of pediatric emergency department (ED) visits in young children and results in a significant economic impact on society and use of health resources. Reliance on the ED for asthma care is not only costly but it is also a dangerous index of ...

A randomized, controlled trial of Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) versus Conventional Care to determine the effectiveness of KMC in increasing the rate of weight gain among low birth weight neonates and if it will decrease sepsis rate and shorten hospital stay among the grou...

The use of potassium supplementation is commonplace in the critical care environment. Patients often have abnormal serum potassium levels due to active disease processes. Conditions such as acute renal failure and metabolic acidosis precipitate hyperkalaemia, with ileus...

Nearly half of Boston's school age children (49%) participate in out of school time programs, a critical time to intervene on physical activity and nutrition. Previous research has mostly focused on during-school-day efforts, or on child care policies and practices for ...

The objective of this study is to compare drug concentrations in aqueous humor following ocular instillation of Besivance or VIGAMOX in subjects undergoing cataract surgery. The hypothesis of the study is that the aggregate aqueous absorption of Besivance over a six hou...

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the hypothesis that the investigators current total joint regional anesthesia pathway of continuous femoral nerve block plus single-injection sciatic block with multimodal analgesia (MC1156-462rev0114) is more effective than two ...
