Withdrawal and limitation of life support in paediatric intensive care

Goh AY, Lum LC, Chan PW, Bakar F, Chong BO

Arch Dis Child, 1999 May;80(5):424-8.
PMID: 10208946

OBJECTIVES: To compare the modes of death and factors leading to withdrawal or limitation of life support in a paediatric intensive care unit (PICU) in a developing country.
METHODS: Retrospective analysis of all children (< 12 years) dying in the PICU from January 1995 to December 1995 and January 1997 to June 1998 (n = 148).
RESULTS: The main mode of death was by limitation of treatment in 68 of 148 patients, failure of active treatment including cardiopulmonary resuscitation in 61, brain death in 12, and withdrawal of life support with removal of endotracheal tube in seven. There was no significant variation in the proportion of limitation of treatment, failure of active treatment, and brain death between the two periods; however, there was an increase in withdrawal of life support from 0% in 1995 to 8% in 1997-98. Justification for limitation was based predominantly on expectation of imminent death (71 of 75). Ethnic variability was noted among the 14 of 21 patients who refused withdrawal. Discussions for care restrictions were initiated almost exclusively by paediatricians (70 of 75). Diagnostic uncertainty (36% v 4.6%) and presentation as an acute illness were associated with the use of active treatment.
CONCLUSIONS: Limitation of treatment is the most common mode of death in a developing country's PICU and active withdrawal is still not widely practised. Paediatricians in developing countries are becoming more proactive in managing death and dying but have to consider sociocultural and religious factors when making such decisions.

Fulltext Did we do it right?--an evaluation of the colour coding system for antenatal care in Malaysia

Ravindran J, Shamsuddin K, Selvaraju S

Med J Malaysia, 2003 Mar;58(1):37-53.
PMID: 14556325

Identification of pregnancies that are at greater than average risk is a fundamental component of antenatal care. The objective of this study was to assess the level of appropriate management and outcomes among mothers with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, postdates and anemia in pregnancy, and to determine whether the colour coding system had any effect on the maternal mortality ratios. A retrospective follow-through study confined to users of government health services in Peninsular Malaysia was carried out in 1997. The study areas were stratified according to their high or low maternal mortality ratios. The study randomly sampled 1112 mothers out of 8388 mothers with the three common obstetric problems in the selected study districts. The study showed that the prevalence of anemia, hypertensive disorders in pregnancy and postmaturity among mothers with these conditions were according to known international standards. There was no significant difference in the colour coding practices between the high and low maternal mortality areas. Inappropriate referrals were surprisingly lower in the areas with high maternal mortality. Inappropriate care by diagnosis and by assigned colour code were significantly higher in the areas with high maternal mortality. The assigned colour code was accurate in only 56.1% of cases in the low maternal mortality areas and in 55.8% of the cases in the high maternal mortality areas and these two areas did not differ significantly in their accurate assignment of the colour codes. The colour coding system, as it exists now should be reviewed. Instead, a substantially revised system that takes cognisance of evidence in the scientific literature should be used to devise a more effective system that can be used by health care personnel involved in antenatal care to ensure appropriate level of care and referrals.

Fulltext Urethritis in men at the Genito-Urinary Medicine Clinic Kuala Lumpur Hospital

Gangaram HB, Akbal K, Gan AT, Hussein SH, Mangalam S, Rohani Y, et al.

Med J Malaysia, 2003 Mar;58(1):21-6.
PMID: 14556323 MyJurnal

The clinical features and aetiology of 100 consecutive symptomatic heterosexual male patients with urethritis were studied from March 1994 to August 1994 in the Genito-Urinary Medicine (GUM) Clinic, Kuala Lumpur Hospital. Gonococcal urethritis (GU) was found to be more common (53%) than non-gonococcal urethritis(47%). All patients with GU confirmed microbiologically had clinically evident urethral discharge. Almost half (41%) of the patients with GU developed post-gonococcal urethritis (PGU). The most common organism isolated in PGU was Ureaplasma urealyticum (37%) whilst only 4% had both Chlamydia trachomatis and Ureaplasma urealyticum. Of the 47% of patients with non-gonococcal urethritis (NGU), 50% had no microorganism isolated, 32% had Ureaplasma urealyticum, 7% Chlamydia trachomatis and 11% both Chlamydia trachomatis and Ureaplasma urealyticum.

The frequency of pre-core gene mutations in chronic hepatitis B infection: a study of Malaysian subjects

Yap SF, Wong PW, Chen YC, Rosmawati M

Southeast Asian J. Trop. Med. Public Health, 2002 Mar;33(1):102-9.
PMID: 12118437

A retrospective study was carried out to determine the frequency of the pre-core stop codon mutant virus in a group of chronic hepatitis B carriers: 81 cases were considered [33 hepatits B e antigen (HBe) positive and 48 HBe negative]. All of the HBe positive cases had detectable viral DNA by hybridization analysis; in the case of the HBe negative cases, one third had detectable viral DNA by hybridization analysis and two thirds had HBV DNA detectable by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification. Pre-core stop codon mutant detection was carried out on all specimens using allele-specific oligonucleotide hybridization following PCR amplification of the target sequence. The pre-core mutant was detected in 13/33 (39.4%) of HBe positive cases and in 32/48 (66.7%) of HBe negative cases. Sequence analysis was carried out on 8 of the 16 HBe negative specimens that did not carry the pre-core mutant virus to determine the molecular basis for the HBe minus phenotype in these cases: the 1762/1764 TA paired mutation in the second AT rich region of the core promoter was detected in five cases; a start codon mutation was detected in one case. The predominant mutation resulting in the HBe minus phenotype in our isolates was the 1896A pre-core ("pre-core stop codon") mutation; other mutations responsible for the phenotype included the core promoter paired mutation and pre-core start codon mutation. In view of the high frequency of the pre-core mutant virus, sequence analysis was performed to determine the virus genotype on the basis of the nucleotide sequence of codon 15. The sequences of 21 wild type virus (14 HBe positive and 7 HBe negative cases) were examined: 15 were found to be codon 15 CCT variants (71.4%); the frequency in the HBe positive group was 12/14 (85.7%), while that in the HBe negative group was 3/7 (42.9%). The high frequency of the codon 15 CCT variant in association with the frequent occurrence of the pre-core mutant in our isolates concurs with the results of other studies.

Jamaiah I, Shekhar KC

Med J Malaysia, 1999 Sep;54(3):296-302.
PMID: 11045054

A hospital based retrospective study of amoebiasis was carried out for a ten-year period at the University Hospital, Kuala Lumpur. Of the 51 cases traced, 30 (59%) had amoebic dysentery, 20 (39%) were amoebic liver abscess (ALA) and one patient had both conditions. Entameoba histolytica trophozoites were identified in 13 (43%) of the amoebic dysenteric stools and 9 (30%) from biopsy. Of the 20 (39%) ALA cases, only one showed parasites in the stool and biopsy. Majority of the patients with dysentery were Malays while Chinese comprised 40% with ALA. Males predominated overall with a male female ratio of 3:1, while for ALA it was 9:1. Most of ALA were single (71.4%) and were localised in the right lobe. The majority of the patients were unemployed. Eighty three percent (83%) of the patients presented with diarrhoea or dysentery followed by abdominal pain while those with ALA had fever, chills, rigors and pain in the right hypochondrium. Eighty percent of the ALA cases showed hepatomegaly. All patients responded to treatment with metronidazole.

Fulltext Appropriateness of medical admissions from a Malaysian public primary care clinic

Chan SC

Med J Malaysia, 1999 Sep;54(3):329-37.
PMID: 11045059

Appropriateness of medical admissions from a Malaysian public primary care clinic (Outpatient Department, Hospital Ipoh) was assessed by two physicians using a modified appropriateness evaluation protocol. Of 122 admissions between 16/6/96 and 15/7/96, 107 records (88%) could be traced from the records office. Eighty percent (86/107) were found to be appropriate and 20% (21/107) inappropriate admissions. Inappropriate admissions included admissions to the wrong discipline and patients who could be investigated and stabilised as outpatients or could be referred to specialist clinics. Protocols, provisions for urgent referrals and medical updates for doctors are recommended.

Fulltext Bacterial enteropathogens isolated in childhood diarrhoea in Kuala Lumpur--the changing trend

Lee WS, Puthucheary SD

Med J Malaysia, 2002 Mar;57(1):24-30.
PMID: 14569714

A retrospective review of all stool samples obtained from children aged < 16 years with diarrhoea from University of Malaya Medical Centre (UMMC), Kuala Lumpur, from 1978 to 1997 was undertaken to ascertain the pattern of bacterial pathogens causing diarrhoea in children in an urban area in Malaysia. Of 26444 stool samples processed, 2989 (11%) were positive. The five most common bacterial pathogens isolated were non-typhoidal Salmonella (57%), enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) (14%), Shigella spp. (11%), Campylobacter spp. (5%) and Aeromonas spp. (4%). There was a significant reduction in the average percentage of positive isolation during the last 5 years of the study period as compared to the first 5 years (15.0% vs. 7.2%; r = -0.92, p = 0.0001). EPEC and Shigella spp. were less commonly isolated in the last five years compared with the first five years of the study (6% vs 21% p < 0.001 for E. coli; 7% vs 22%, p < 0.001 for Shigella spp.). This information is important for public health education in reducing the incidence of childhood diarrhoea further, and in the selection of appropriate antimicrobials in the management of extra-intestinal complications of childhood diarrhoea.

The masquerades of female pelvic tuberculosis: case reports and review of literature on clinical presentations and diagnosis

Chow TW, Lim BK, Vallipuram S

J Obstet Gynaecol Res, 2002 Aug;28(4):203-10.
PMID: 12452262

In this review, tuberculosis of the genital tract was diagnosed retrospectively in 11 females over 15 years. The presentations of nine cases are described. Seven of the nine cases presented with ascites, vague abdominal distension, weight loss and were misdiagnosed as ovarian carcinoma. Eight women had no relevant past history. A review on clinical presentations and diagnosis of pelvic tuberculosis is presented. We conclude that although the incidence of tuberculosis is uncommon in developed countries, its prevalence appears to be increasing worldwide. Therefore, clinicians should consider tuberculosis as a differential diagnosis when encountering clinical presentations of pelvic mass and ascites.

Fulltext Chevron osteotomy for hallux valgus--SGH experience

Tan MY, Seow KH, Tay BK

Med J Malaysia, 1998 Mar;53(1):63-9.
PMID: 10968140

Thirty-one chevron osteotomies for hallux valgus performed over a period of four years were reviewed. Their follow-up period ranged from one to five years. All the patients had pain over the bunion prior to operation. After operation, there was marked decrease of pain over the first matatarsophalangeal joint. The preoperative hallux valgus angle average 27 degrees and the postoperative angle averaged 12 degrees. The preoperative intermetatarsal angle averaged 13 degrees and the postoperative angle, 8 degrees. Ninety-one per cent of the patients were satisfied with the result of the procedure.

Fulltext Epidemiology of aplastic anaemia in the state of Sabah, Malaysia

Yong ASM, Goh AS, Rahman M, Menon J, Purushothaman V

Med J Malaysia, 1998 Mar;53(1):59-62.
PMID: 10968139

Aplastic anaemia is a rare disease which is more prevalent in the Far East. In Malaysia, it appears to be unusually common in the state of Sabah. A retrospective analysis of all cases of aplastic anaemia diagnosed between January 1993 and March 1996 was undertaken. The criteria of the International Aplastic Anaemia and Agranulocytosis Study (IAAAS) was used. In this 39 month period, 31 cases were confirmed by marrow trephine biopsy to be aplastic anaemia. The male-to-female ratio was 3.4. Median age of diagnosis was 23 years. There were 24 patients (77%) who were from the Kadazan-Dusun ethnic group, which forms 18% of the population of Sabah. The incidence of aplastic anaemia in Sabah appears to be higher than that reported elsewhere in the Far East, at 4.8 per million population per year. Peak incidence is in the elderly group at 8.6 per million followed by a second peak in young people aged 15 to 24 (7.9 per million). The aplastic anaemia to total acute leukaemia ratio is 0.37. The marked male preponderance and apparent susceptibility of the Kadazan-Dusun people are also notable. A further prospective study to address the true incidence of aplastic anaemia and possible aetiologic factors accounting for these observations is necessary.

Fulltext Ureteral injuries in an obstetric and gynaecology teaching hospital

Yeong CT, Lim TLW, Tan KH

Med J Malaysia, 1998 Mar;53(1):51-8.
PMID: 10968138

Between November 1994 to May 1996, there was a total of eight ureteric injuries out of 2495 major gynaecologic operations and one ureteric injury out of 4146 caesarean sections at the Kandang Kerbau Hospital, giving the incidence to be 0.3% and 0.02% respectively. Antecedent operations were four abdominal hysterectomies, two Werthiem's hysterectomies, one laparoscopic-assisted vaginal hysterectomy and one caesarean section. All operations were performed by qualified specialists. Three patients had previous abdominal operations and five patients had procedures complicated by dense adhesions. Only one injury was detected intraoperatively and the rest presented with uretero-vaginal fistula. One presented with immediate postoperative anuria. The average time interval for diagnosis ranged between one day and twenty-three days (average 10.7 days). The commonest damage was transection of the ureter. Double J stents were used in all repairs with two cases requiring reimplantation with psoas hitch, and two cases of ureteroneocystostomies and one case of primary reanastomosis. There were no mortality in our series.

A clinical audit on the practice of platelet transfusions at a tertiary paediatric referral centre

Jamal R, Hoe TS, Ong LC, Afifah I, Khuzaiah R, Doraisamy G

Malays J Pathol, 1998 Jun;20(1):35-40.
PMID: 10879262

Platelet transfusions are indicated in a wide variety of clinical conditions especially those with thrombocytopenia. However, without proper clinical practice guidelines, inappropriate transfusions are bound to happen. To ascertain the provision of a quality and appropriate practice of platelet transfusions, an audit study was carried out over a period of one month at the Paediatric Institute, Kuala Lumpur Hospital. A prospective audit was performed during that period whilst a retrospective collection of data was carried out for the previous month for comparison. Based on a set of criteria agreed upon by the audit committee, it was found that in 18.5% (22 of 119) of the cases, the indications for platelet transfusions were inappropriate. The audit committee concluded that there is a need for a more detailed clinical practice guideline for local use to reduce or lower the incidence of inappropriate transfusions of platelets.

Nipah encephalitis outbreak in Malaysia

Tan CT, Wong KT

Ann Acad Med Singap, 2003 Jan;32(1):112-7.
PMID: 12625108

INTRODUCTION: Between September 1998 and June 1999, there was a severe outbreak of viral encephalitis among the pig farm workers in Malaysia.
METHODS: This is a review of the published literature related to the outbreak with the focus on human diseases.
RESULTS: The encephalitis was caused by a newly discovered paramyxovirus related to Hendra virus, later named Nipah virus. There were 265 patients with acute encephalitis. The disease is thought to spread from pig to man through close contact. The risk of human-to-human spread is thought to below. The disease affected mainly adult Chinese males, half of whom had affected family members. The disease presented mainly as acute encephalitis with a short incubation period of less than two weeks, with the main symptoms of fever, headache, and giddiness followed by coma. Distinctive clinical signs include segmental myoclonus, areflexia and hypotonia, hypertension, and tachycardia. Initial cerebrospinal fluid was abnormal in 75% of patients. Serology was helpful in confirming the diagnosis. Magnetic resonance imaging showed distinctive changes of multiple, discrete, and small high signal lesions, best seen with fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) sequences. Mortality was high at 40% and death was probably due to severe brainstem involvement. The main necropsy finding in acute encephalitis was that of disseminated microinfarction associated with vasculitis and direct neuronal involvement. Ribavirin was able to reduce the mortality by 36%. Relapse encephalitis was seen in 7.5% of those who recovered from acute encephalitis, and late-onset encephalitis in 3.4% of those with initial non-encephalitic or asymptomatic diseases. The mean interval between initial illness and the onset of the complication was 8.4 months. The relapse and late-onset encephalitis which manifested as focal encephalitis arose from recurrent infection.
CONCLUSION: Nipah virus, a recently discovered paramyxovirus, causes a unique encephalitis with high mortality as well as relapse and late-onset encephalitis. The infection is mainly spread from pigs to man.

Antimicrobial susceptibility and distribution of non-typhoidal Salmonella serovars isolated in Malaysian children

Lee WS, Puthucheary SD, Parasakthi N, Choo KE

J Trop Pediatr, 2003 Feb;49(1):37-41.
PMID: 12630719

There is widespread resistance of Salmonella species to commonly prescribed antimicrobials the world over. We aimed to determine the antimicrobial susceptibility and serovar distribution of non-typhoidal Salmonella (NTS) isolated from blood cultures of Malaysian children. Positive isolates of NTS from blood cultures obtained from children admitted to the pediatric wards of University of Malaya Medical Center (UMMC), a large urban hospital from Kuala Lumpur (1991-2001), and Hospital Kota Bharu (HKB), from the predominantly rural state of Kelantan (1991-1999), Malaysia, were reviewed retrospectively. Serovar distribution and antimicrobial susceptibility were ascertained. A total of 64 and 55 isolates of NTS were obtained from blood cultures of children admitted to UMMC and HKB, respectively. The commonest serovar isolated was Salmonella enteritidis in both centers. The NTS isolated were highly sensitive to the antimicrobials tested: ampicillin 98 per cent, chloramphenicol 98 per cent, gentamicin 97 per cent, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (TMP-SMX) 98 per cent, and ceftriaxone 100 per cent in UMMC; ampicillin 100 per cent, chloramphenicol 87 per cent, kanamycin 100 per cent, streptomycin 96 per cent, TMP-SMX 93 per cent, and tetracycline 89 per cent in HKB. There were only one and five multi-resistant isolates in UMMC and HKB, respectively. In conclusion, NTS isolated from blood cultures of Malaysian children from Kuala Lumpur and Kota Bharu were highly sensitive to commonly prescribed antibiotics. We speculate that this is due to the restriction of sales of antimicrobials in Malaysia except by prescription. Continuing vigilance and frequent antmicrobial surveillance is necessary.

Pattern of suicide: a review of autopsies conducted at the University Hospital, Kuala Lumpur

Nadesan K

Malays J Pathol, 1999 Dec;21(2):95-9.
PMID: 11068413

Suicide is one of the ten leading causes of death in the world, accounting for more than 400,000 deaths annually. The pattern of suicide and the incidence of suicide vary from country to country. Cultural, religious and social values play some role in suicide. Compared to the West and some of the countries in the Asian region the incidence of suicide is low in Malaysia. A three-year retrospective study of all the autopsies performed at the University Hospital, Kuala Lumpur was analysed and the cases that were definitely determined as suicides were further studied. 48.8% of all suicides were ethnic Indians though Indians formed only 8% of the Malaysian population. 38.1% of suicides were Chinese who formed 26% of the population while only 3.6% were Malays, who formed 59% of the population. The preferred methods of suicide were poisoning and hanging. The majority were in the age group 20-40 yr. The study may have missed some cases that would have been wrongly concluded as accidental deaths and a few others where the police would have released the bodies without postmortem examinations.

Febrile convulsions: acute seizure characteristics and anti-convulsant therapy

Ling SG

Ann Trop Paediatr, 2000 Sep;20(3):227-30.
PMID: 11064777 DOI: 10.1080/02724936.2000.11748139

A descriptive study using data from the medical records of 448 children with febrile convulsion was carried out to determine the seizure characteristics and use of anti-convulsant therapy for febrile convulsions in a Malaysian hospital. There was a higher incidence of multiple seizures and a lower incidence of focal seizures in the local population than in studies done among Western populations. The majority of initial seizures occurred within 24 h of fever onset. Transient neurological abnormalities following an acute seizure were common. A quarter of children referred by general practitioners had been given anti-convulsants prior to referral but up to 20% of general practitioners had used ineffective routes for administering diazepam. However, diazepam used in the hospital was found to be effective in controlling acute febrile seizures.

Fulltext Outpatient procedures for cervical dysplasia: a 3 year review of laser vaporisation and LEEP

Lee KE, Koh CF, Watt WF

Med J Malaysia, 1999 Mar;54(1):47-51.
PMID: 10972004

A 3 year retrospective review (1995 to 1997) of 127 patients with cervical dysplasia who underwent Laser Vaporisation of the cervix and LEEP at the Gynaecological Cancer Centre, KK Women's & Children's Hospital, Singapore, was undertaken. Amongst the patients in the Laser Vaporisation group, the mean age was 37.7 years (SD 8.8), the mean operating time was 14.8 minutes (SD 8.5), 63.6% were given prophylactic antibiotics and the mean follow up period was 15.3 months (SD 12.0), whilst in the LEEP group, mean age was 40.3 years (SD 8.4), mean operating time, 11.8 minutes (SD 4.9), prophylactic antibiotic rate, 53.8% and mean follow up period was 19.1 months (SD 9.3). Mild and moderate haemorrhage post procedure were the only complications encountered, 10.2% (5/49) in the Laser group and 3.8% (3/78) in the LEEP group. 98% (48/49) and 97.4% (76/78) of the Laser and LEEP groups, respectively, were free of disease on follow up. None of the 3 patients with persistent or recurrent disease were diagnosed as having invasive cancer. Overall, there were no significant differences in the patient characteristics, histopathology, operating times, follow up period, the use of prophylactic antibiotics, and complications in the 2 groups. The low complication rate, high disease-free rate and the relatively short operating time of Laser Vaporisation and LEEP in our study suggests that, indeed, both the procedures can be done safely and efficiently in the outpatient setting. However the discrepancy between the histology of colposcopically directed biopsy and that of LEEP specimens suggests that colposcopically directed biopsy may not be as accurate as one might believe, and further studies analysing the concordance between colposcopically directed biopsy and LEEP biopsy histologies are needed.

Postoperative venous thromboembolism in Asia: a critical appraisal of its incidence

Liew NC, Moissinac K, Gul Y

Asian J Surg, 2003 Jul;26(3):154-8.
PMID: 12925290

Venous thromboembolism (VTE) has historically been perceived to be a rare disorder in Asia. However, new evidence has emerged recently that contradicts this perception. The question of routine VTE prophylaxis has been hotly debated in Asia due to disagreement on its incidence. We reviewed and analysed studies on postoperative VTE in Asian patients to determine if the condition was indeed rare and if the routine prophylactic measures as recommended by internationally accepted guidelines should be adopted in Asia.

Fulltext Renal biopsies in Johor: a 7-year study

Khoo JJ

Malays J Pathol, 2001 Dec;23(2):101-4.
PMID: 12166589

Consecutive renal biopsies received from 1994 to 2000 in Johor Bahru were reviewed. There were 441 cases, of which 407 were adequate biopsies (92.3%). Lupus nephritis formed the largest diagnostic entity (126 cases, 31.0%). This reflected the high prevalence of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients in Malaysia. The most common histological pattern of lupus nephritis was diffuse proliferative glomerulonephritis: WHO Class IV (96 cases, 76.2%). Other diagnostic entities were minimal change disease (28.5%), proliferative glomerulonephritis (10.6%), IgA nephropathy (9.8%), focal glomerulosclerosis (4.9%), membranous glomerulonephritis (4.4%), transplant rejection (3.9%), end stage nephropathy (3.4%) and others (3.4%). The morphological pattern of renal biopsies in Johor was similar to that reported in the University Hospital Kuala Lumpur.
