DIAGNOSTIC DILEMMA

Kamal Parikh
A 20 day old boy developed respiratory distress after half an hour after birth. Antenatal USG showed polyhydramnios. Chest X-ray showed aspiration on right side. Dye study of upper GI tract showed Grade III reflux Gradual RT feedings were started but baby was not taking anything orally. Baby had aspiration on day 12 and again needed admission to NICU but was not able to suck and swallow. How to proceed further?

Last fortnight's query of a 17 years old girl with headache, epigastric pain, fever, hematemesis (1 cup full) and erythematous rash with increased menstrual flow with difficulty in breathing who died had several replies. Most doctors have suggested a differential diagnosis of septic shock, DIC, meningococcemia and staphylococcal toxic shock syndrome.
