Abstract

Background: Pheochromocytoma is a vascular tumor of chromaffin tissue, most commonly at the adrenal medulla, that produces and secretes norepinephrine and epinephrine and is a tumor that secretes catecholamines. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is often used to provide clinical data and remains challenging in pediatrics. We present anesthesia management for abdominal MRI in pediatric patients with suspected pheochromocytoma.Case: A 12-year-old child weighing 25 kg with a diagnosis of suspected pheochromocytoma will have an abdominal MRI for diagnosis with sedation. Intravenous sedation technique using dexmedetomidine loading dose 50 μg for 10 minutes and continued maintenance of dexmedetomidine dose 17.5 μg/hour. Durante's MRI showed stable hemodynamics. Post-MRI of the abdomen, monitoring, and evaluation were carried out in the conscious recovery room and found no complications.Conclusion: The use of dexmedetomidine as a sedation agent in patients with suspected pheochromocytoma generally shows stable hemodynamics in the absence of signs of catecholamine spikes.

Abstract

Background: Septic, an infection-induced condition, triggers an inflammatory response leading to life-threatening organ dysfunction and hypoalbuminemia. Albumed milk, containing extracts from egg whites and sprouts, has been considered a potential intervention to prevent hypoalbuminemia.Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of albumed milk on elevating serum albumin levels in septic patients in the intensive care unit (ICU).Methods: An experimental study involved two groups totaling 40 patients. The control group received a standard ICU diet, while the treatment group received half of the regular ICU diet supplemented with 30 grams of albumed milk every 8 hours. Albumin levels were measured on days 0 and 3.Results: A significant reduction in average albumin levels occurred in the control group at 0.605 units (p-value = 0.006). Conversely, the treatment group showed a non-significant decrease, with an average reduction in albumin level of 0.03 units (p = 0.839).Conclusion: Albumed milk administration preserves albumin levels in septic patients compared to control patients without albumed, who show albumin level reduction. This highlights the potential utility of albumed milk as a supplementary measure in mitigating septic-related hypoalbuminemia.
