Placental mesenchymal dysplasia and intrauterine fetal growth restriction with doppler velocimetry alterations - a case report
Placental mesenchymal dysplasia (PMD) is a rare placental abnormality. We report a case of PMD associated with intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), which was diagnosed by an ultrasound scan during the second trimester of pregnancy. A 36-year-old primiparous woman with signs of placental chorioangioma was referred to our hospital at the 23th gestational week. An ultrasonography revealed a small-for-gestational-age fetus with a large multicystic placenta. A serial Doppler sonographic assessment of umbilical and uterine artery blood flow showed a compromised fetus. A female, small-for-gestational-age baby was delivered by c-section at 28 weeks, and PMD was histopathologically confirmed

The prevalence and adequacy of antibiotic prescriptions in Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre
Durante o dia 30 de julho de 1987, foram estudados alguns aspectos envolvendo o uso de antibióticos no Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre. De 432 pacientes internados, 182 (42%) estavam utilizando antibióticos,e destes, 42% recebiam a medicação de forma inadequada. Dos antibióticos usados terapeuticarhente, os mais prescritos foram ampicilina, penicilina, cefalosporinas e amicacina. Entre os usados profilaticamente, destacaram-se cefa/osporinas, gentamicina e ampicilina. O trabalho sugere que o controle do uso de antibióticos pode reduzir a adoção inapropriada destes agentes.On July 30th 1987 there was made a survey to evaluate the antibiotic use in the Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre. 432 patients were investigated and 182 (42%) were under antimicrobial therapy. This group showed 42% o f patients receiving antimicrobians inappropriately. The antibiotics most used therapeuticaly were ampicillin, penicillin, cefalosporin and amikacin. For prophylaxis the most used were cefalosporin, gentamicin and ampicillin. This paper suggests that contra/ procedures can reduce the inappropriate use of antimicrobial agents in our hospital
