Appropriate technology in keeping babies warm in India.

Provision of a thermoneutral environment to the newborns has made an important contribution to improved neonatal survivals. Modern systems which only warm one baby are expensive and their maintenance not very easy. Warming a room with three to four babies by means of simple devices is cost-effective and should be preferred by those to whom cost matters very much.

Supplementary feeding of gruel to low birth weight infants.

Time and again breast-milk proteins and calories have been thought to be suboptimal for the nutritional needs of the low birth weight infant. Malnutrition during the early months may have adverse effects on intellectual development. To ensure an adequate allowance of calories and proteins, breast-milk should be supplemented rather than supplanted by other foods whenever weight gain is less than desirable on breast-milk alone.

Immuno-reconstitution by thymic transplant in DiGeorge's syndrome.

Persistent hypocalcaemic tetany in a breast-fed neonate made us suspect DiGeorge's syndrome, particularly as the baby had an abnormal facies, and a ventricular septal defect. Immuno-reconstitution was successfully achieved by thymic transplant. Evidence of immuno-reconstitution on the basis of the histology of the post-transplant thymus has not been previously recorded.

Lignocaine pretreatment for suxamethonium. A clinicobiochemical study.

Lignocaine pretreatment (2 mg/kg) significantly restricted the increase in serum potassium and decrease in serum calcium caused by suxamethonium. Suxamethonium muscle pains occurred in only 8% of patients who received lignocaine just before induction of anaesthesia. The incidence of muscle pains was 45% in those patients who were not given lignocaine.
