Using electronic devices to monitor infants at home has a somewhat tragic history. Such devices were first introduced in the early 1970s based on the belief that apnoea plays a causal role in the ...
Objective To describe early management of infants born to a parent with gene-positive long QT syndrome (LQTS) referred for specialist review. Review the diagnostic utility of the early neonatal and ...
Objective To evaluate the association of intrapartum magnesium sulfate for fetal neuroprotection (MgSO4-FN) with the delivery room resuscitation and neonatal outcomes of preterm infants in an era of ...
Objective To evaluate whether a perfusion-based approach (permissive hypotension, PH) for idiopathic low mean arterial blood pressure (MABP) during the first 72 hours after birth in preterm infants ...
Anti-Ro and anti-La antibodies are common in many autoimmune diseases. When present in pregnant women, these antibodies can lead to autoimmune-mediated congenital heart block (CHB) in the fetus or ...
We read with interest the study by Ulinder et al reporting an association between the alveolar‐to‐arterial (A:a) oxygen gradient and bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), and the proposed role of reduced ...
Endotracheal intubation, the insertion of an endotracheal tube (ETT) through the vocal cords into the trachea, is an essential and potentially life-saving procedure in neonates. Most commonly, ...
Objective Assess the relationship between applied face mask force and leak during simulated ventilation using different ventilating devices and mask holds. Design Randomised cross-over simulation ...
Objective Assess the feasibility and safety of a purpose-built automated tactile stimulation device (ATSD) responding to cardiorespiratory events in preterm infants. Design Randomised cross-over study ...
