A New Society Dedicated to Fighting Newborn Sepsis

Neonatal sepsis remains one of the leading causes of death and harm in newborns worldwide, and it disproportionately affects babies in low- and middle-income settings. This week at the PAS 2026 conference, a new global initiative took its first formal step: the Newborn Sepsis Society held its founding meeting. The Society brings together clinicians, researchers, and partner organizations across disciplines and borders, with a shared mission: to improve outcomes for newborns worldwide by advancin

🎉 20 Years of 99nicu 🎉

Dear 99nicu friends, Some of you might have already noticed our 99nicu page has been going through small improvements. We keep thinking about how to make this page more friendly for you, our users. What would it take to make us a page you visit often, or maybe even your starting page? Last week I implemented an RSS feed with the newest papers in neonatal medicine.

Quality of life in adults born extremely preterm - and large gap between what we know and what we need to know

Sweden is a good country to be born extremely preterm. Neonatal intensive care is centralized and pretty much equally organized, and outcomes are regarded as good and similar throughout the country. Like in most other European countries, the welfare system enables equal access for all, practically at no cost for families. Sweden has been at the forefront of the slide of the ”window of viability”, i.e. at which gestational age extremely preterm infants are offered intensive care. I don’t know how

I feel good after a bit of mental flow and manual work But the weekend I was told about must have been hard, as indicated by the number of pediatric subspecialties and units that were also involved: oncology surgery anestesiology nephrology radiology transfusion medicine infectious diseases ECMO... Reflections... professional networks are no
