COMPARING QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE ECHOCARDIOGRAPHIC MARKERS TO ASSESS CARDIAC CONTRACTILITY IN NEWBORN INFANTS: PROTOCOL FOR A PROSPECTIVE COHORT STUDY

Introduction Neonatologist-performed echocardiography (NPE) is increasingly used in the neonatal intensive care unit, aiding clinicians in enhancing diagnostic precision and guiding treatment decisions based on underlying pathophysiology.Experienced NPE operators typically use visual estimation of the cardiac contractility and if required confirm f

Brucellosis poses a significant zoonotic risk to humans and animals, and is caused by the Gram-negative bacteria of the Brucella species.In cows and buffaloes, infection is typically attributed Worktables to Brucella abortus, often resulting in abortion during late pregnancy and posing a subsequent risk of sterility in females.The current study aim
