Compartmental Pressure

Background: Compartment syndrome can be a life or limb-threatening emergency. Early diagnosis is important for the prevention of disability. The clinical features are subjective in nature. Intra compartmental pressure measurement is a reliable objective method for early and accurate diagnosis of compartment syndrome.Objective: To measure the compartmental pressure in a leg by Whitesides method in Nepalese patient attending a tertiary care hospital in eastern region of Nepal.Methods: This is a cross-sectional study done over the period of three years on adult patients aged 16 years and above presenting to the Emergency Department of BPKIHS with unilateral closed tibial fracture. Total of 60 patients aged 16 years and above with closed fracture tibia were enrolled in the study.Results: Out of total study population, 40 were males and 20 females. The anterior compartmental pressure in the uninjured legs ranged between 3 mmHg and 20 mmHg. Patients from hilly areas had more compartmental pressure (range 8 to 20 mmHg) as compared to patients of plain land (range 3 to 15 mmHg). People of hilly areas have more girth of thigh and calf muscles. Conclusion: The compartmental pressure in the uninjured legs ranged between 3 mmHg and 20 mmHg with variations in different geographic location. Whitesides injection technique of compartmental pressure measurement can be useful in the promptly defect compartmental syndrome in emergency and outpatient set-ups. Health Renaissance 2015;13 (1):[email protected]

Nutritional Status Of Children

Background: Prevalence of malnutrition is high in Nepal. Early intervention improves outcome of children. Objectives: To study the occurrence of the malnutrition in under five children coming to the OPD at BPKIHS and to find out the age group & sex most severely affected by malnutrition. Methods: A descriptive cross sectional hospital-based study was carried out from 2003-04. 500 children aged 1-5 years were taken as a sample The children needing emergency care were excluded. The Indian Academy of Pediatrics (IAP) and WHO classification were used for grading malnutrition. Results: Total patient were 500 aged 1-5 yrs group. Total malnutrition cases were 124 with a prevalence of 24.8% .Malnutrition was highest in 3-4 years group (33.3%). Conclusion: It is found that total malnutrition cases were about 24.8%.A more elaborate and community based study would help to find prevalence of malnutrition in children of Eastern Nepal.
