Hi Guys, I would like an opinion on HFOV, HFOV+VG as a mode of ventilation for extremely preterm infants. Case: 24 weeks, 600g baby (day2-3) past honeymoon period, on 2x inotropes just maintaining borderline BP. Ventilation: HFOV+VG, Hertz 6, VG:3.3mls/kg. Blood gas was reasonable. The baby was put on this mode as there were apparently issues with CO2 clearance. My experience with this mode is (...use it when nothing works!) limited. I have used it comfortably in term or near-term infants but in an extremely preterm infant, I was a bit shaky. Anyhow, I thought gases are stable and the baby seems to be coping well... let's not rock the boat! Unfortunately, the V…

What approaches are in use around the world for the ventilation of CDH (especially pre-operative on or off ECMO)?

Given what we know about the importance of volume-trauma as opposed to baro-trauma, is anyone volume ventilating pre-operative CDH and permitting higher peak pressures?

Given recent results from placebo-controlled trials on inhaled budenoside and systemic hydrocortisone, how do you practically approach the questions on steroid use in your NICU? As you are probably well aware, the NEUROSIS trial (inhaled budenoside) showed some reduction in BPD among survivors, but the 2y followup showed a increased nb of deaths in the budenoside group and no benefit with regards to neurodevelopment (NEJM 2015 and NEJM 2018). The PREMILOC trial found that systemic low-dose hydrocortisone reduced the BPD risk, without a clear benefit on neurodevelopmental outcomes (Lancet 2016 and JAMA 2017). Further, a meta-analysis came out just the other week …
