Seldenafil in PPHN
Hy Thabet hope you are ok. About your question Im from mexico and unfortunately we dont have nitric oxide on my hospital, so we use Sildenafil in the cases of Pulmonary Hypertension. The reponse in most cases is adeuately but is not immediately, you have to wait 8 to 12 hours until you really see the therapeutic effect. We make an Echo before and after treatment is installed, and be carefully with hypotension. Pharmakocinetics of oral Sildenafil is acceptable, but is very important to recruit the best you can the lungs, since some times its only this point that is crucial to reverse the increase of pulmonary vascular resistance. Hope this help you

neonatal pneumopericardium & pneumomediastinum
I agree with Stephan and Nathan, Im from Mexico too Emilio, and unless there is a real emergency situation, we only observe, be carefully with your ventilator parameters, and any therapeutic decision ( specially pneumopericardium) it has to be ecochardiography guided.

UVC tip in portal vein
We try to never leave a catheter in a wrong position , mostly if we have to infuse parenteral nutrition or any drug thought it. We have 3 cases register in my hospital of babies that born in others hospitals that have hepatic absceses, and the catheters were intrahepatic. The use of Ultrasound is a very good option. If we urgently needed an IV via we repositioned, but as possibly we look for a PICC line.
