In Sonora, the Centruroides sculpturatus sting causes neuromotor excitation syndrome that requires specific antiven. The objective of this work was to describe the clinical characteristics and treatment of the outpatient in children with SSE at the Hospital Infantil del Estado de Sonora (HIES) from 2017 to 2018. The clinical notes of the Emergency Service of the children who were treated during that period with SSE and, without serious or hospitalized intoxication. Epidemiological and clinical variables were analyzed in children under 18 years old; with the information obtained, a descriptive analysis was carried out by mean, standard deviation and frequency and percentage. The 279 cases were analyzed, school-age children were the most affected (41.2%), and 55.8% presented mild intoxication SSE. Pain was observed in 65.9% and the 72.6% of the children, they received at least one vial of drug therapy and 55.9% of the boys with mild SSE only received one vial with satisfactory results. None of the children who received drug therapy presented adverse events or required hospitalization, only one child received six vials and the administration of the drug in less than 4 hours decreased the percentage of children with serious neurotoxic effects.

Background: After the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, there has been an increase in hospitalization for lower respiratory infection secondary to respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), with greater complications. Associated extrapulmonary alterations, biventricular dysfunction, acute kidney injury, among others, have been found. The objective of this study was to analize the evolution and complications in hospitalized children with lower respiratory infection secondary to RSV after COVID-19 pandemic., Methods: All pediatric patients under 2 years of age admitted to the emergency department with RSV infection were included. Clinical characteristics, need for supplemental oxygen, use of amines, renal angina index, and requirement for renal replacement therapy were analyzed. Lung ultrasound was performed upon admission. Statistical analysis was carried out for the quantitative variables by means of mean and standard deviation, and qualitative variables by frequency and percentage. Differences in the distribution were evaluated with Fisher's exact distribution., Results: 45 patients with RSV infection were identified, 26.7% required invasive mechanical ventilation and 11.1% requiered peritoneal dialysis. Fatality was observed in four cases, three of these younger than 12 months with a LUS score > 7; contrasts with 90.2% of survivors with a score < 7 (p = 0.0004)., Conclusions: An increase in the incidence of bronchiolitis after pandemic was observed, with more than half having moderate to severe symptoms and requiring supplemental oxygen support in all patients upon admission. Acute kidney injury is the most common extrapulmonary manifestation., (Copyright: © 2024 Permanyer.)
