Oh Copenhagen my beloved city, a lot of memories in Rigshospitalet Best wishes for the next conference

In this book, you'll learn multiple new aspects of respiratory management of the newborn. For example, ventilator management of infants with unusually severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia and infants with omphalocele is discussed, as well as positioning of endotracheal tube in extremely low birth weight infants, noninvasive respiratory support, utilization of a protocol-driven respiratory management, and more. This book includes a chapter on noninvasive respiratory function monitoring during chest compression, analyzing the efficacy and quality of chest compression and exhaled carbon dioxide. It also provides an overview on new trends in the management of fetal and transitioning lungs in infants delivered prematurely. Lastly, the book includes a chapter on neonatal encephalopathy treated with hypothermia along with mechanical ventilation. The interaction of cooling with respiration and the strategies to optimize oxygenation and ventilation in asphyxiated newborns are discussed. The book is open access free to download I hope it will be of benefit to all neonatal intensivists

We have published this review article recently 676192.pdf

we use heparin flush 0.5ml/h

The final program of the 2nd Evidence-based Neonatology Conference 13-16 March 2013, Istanbul-Turkey is now avaialble. http://www.ebneo2013.com/program.html See you there 7- Program.doc

Unfortunately, I could not make it this year. Let me remind our colleagues that we will have the 2nd EBNEO conference in Cairo Next March

Also abstract submission is open now. Selected research works will be presented as posters as well as short oral communications. Hoping to see you all in Cairo next March.

It is open for all nationalities

Dear colleagues A great chance to enhance your professional development as a neonatologist and get a potential to get a postgraduate certificate , a diploma, or a Master degree in Neonatology through online training. The is recognised by ESPR ESN and Univeristy of south Hampton UK . The course will start soon next October

imipenem, meropenem, amikacin

Promising but very expensive (not for developing countries), may be Hypothermia + Erythopoietin is more affordable (our center will report results of a recent trial soon).

Dear Friends Please see this link to a recent review article just published. I hope it will be interesting. http://www.dovepress.com/respiratory-management-of-the-preterm-newborn-in-the-delivery-room-peer-reviewed-article-RRN

Great efforts. Works well on i-phone

Erythema toxicum is the most probable diagnosis. However this rash is usually not apparent at birth and starts 48 hr after birth

Hi Jack In Mansoura we use Olympic Cool CAP system

According to our recent study published in Early Human Development this year. We do not recommend weaning from nCPAP until the baby is stable on room air. We no longer wean to Nasal Cannula as this increases O2 exposure and prolongs the duration of weaning. Also we avoid cycling the babies on CPAP a method of weaning.

Early this year we had twin with neonatal Myasthenia , both received mechanical ventilation for 8-1o weeks and they were weaned successfully from Pyridostigmine by the age of 14 week with good outcome. Unfortunately mum died with mystheic crisis.

I do not recommend so if the cannula was left for sometime. On the other hand, insertion of PICC can be done through a peripheral cannula

Dear Dr Osama It will be our pleasure here in Mansoura to share in this confernce. Best wishes

We do not use venting NG routinely. Only in babies with CPAP belly syndrome we use a venting NG tube left open into a disposable urine bag. We give feeds every 3 hours. We try to keep the babies in prone position most of the time.

Hello Dr Osama we have two workshops. 6/4: Non -invasive ventilation workshop 9:00 – 9:30 Registration and Pretest 9:30 – 10:00 CPAP: History Physiologic effects Indications Contraindications 10:00 – 10:30 CPAP in preterm infants: What is the evidence? 10:30 – 11.00 CPAP: Methods of application Maintenance Complications Failure criteria 11:00 – 12.30 Administration of nasal-CPAP (Parallel Practical Sessions) Arabella CPAP Fisher and Paykel bubble CPAP CPAP administration (video) 12:30 – 13:00 Delivery room CPAP 13:00 – 14:00 High flow oxygen delivery 14:00 – 14:30 CNEP, SIPAP, and BiPAP 14:30 – 15:00 Non-invasive ventilation 15:00 – 15:30 Post test 15:30 – 16:00 Closing ceremony 7/4 TPN: workshop

Final Programme

Please refer to the latest report from AAP about premedications for non-emergency intubation it has just been published this week and you can download it for free from "Pediatrics". I think morphine (fentanyl) + Atropine + Pancruminm will be our chioce in Mansoura in our new guidelines.
