Congenital malformation at Gunung Wenang Hospital Manado: a five-year spectrum.

A five-year evaluation of congenital malformation among newborn infants born at Gunung Wenang Hospital has been evaluated in an attempt to get the picture of the congenital malformation spectrum and the magnitude of its problems in Manado, Indonesia. The total incidence of congenital malformation in this study was 0.9%, of which 0.5% were major types. The most common major malformation were: cleft lip and palate, talipes, multiple malformation, anal atresia, omphalocele and congenital heart diseases. The minor types were: abnormal formation of the ears, incomplete descensus of the testis, hydrocele and finger defects. The risk of having a newborn with birth defects was highest among mother's first pregnancy and among grande multiparity.

The influence of pyridoxin in the treatment of tetanus neonatorum.

During a 2-year-period (1988-1990) 31 patients with tetanus neonatorum were recruited for this study. The patients were divided into 2 groups: The first group (15 patients) was treated with ATS injection, oral metronidazole and amoxycillin, and diazepam suppositoria. The second group (16 patients) was treated with the same regimen, as the first group plus pyridoxin injection 100 mg on the first day followed by 25 mg orally on the next days. There was no statistical difference in the two groups concerning the gestation period, sex, severity of the disease (p greater than 0.05), place of delivery (all at home) and mode of delivery delivered by traditional midwife/dukun). The mortality of the first group (without pyridoxin) was 60% and the second (with pyridoxin) 37.5% (p less than 0.05).
