Case report of neonate Pierre Robin sequence with severe upper airway obstruction who was rescued by finger guide intubation.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Fluid resuscitation is a core stone of hemorrhagic shock therapy, and crystalloid fluids seem to be associated with lower mortality compared to colloids. However, as redistribution starts within minutes, it has been suggested to replace blood loss with a minimum of a three-fold amount of crystalloids. The hy...
