  • Title: [Use of sterile petrolatum for extravasation injury in a premature infant].
    Author: Grabois FS, Voievdca T, Aqcuavita A, Kizlansky V, Saint Genez D, Vidaurreta S.
    Journal: Arch Argent Pediatr; 2008 Dec; 106(6):533-5. PubMed ID: 19107307.
    Abstract:
    The skin of premature infants is an ineffective barrier. The stratum corneum is thinner than that found in full-term infants. We report on a premature patient with extravasation injury from sodium bicarbonate. Daily treatment with sterile petrolatum resulted in restitutio ad integrum.
