  1. This was a really intersting study We found out that This was quite shocking, given the huge emphasis is placed on nutrition for preterm infants especially with the numerous interventions. I wonder how it is like with the long-term follow up with neurodevelopment?
  2. Information concerning the advantages of late repair as indicated in the HIP trial study is persuasive particularly for extremely preterm infants and infants with BPD. I found the commentary’s discussions of the study’s shortcomings useful as they recall the risk of using composite outcomes and burden to families.
  3. I quite agree with Stefan on this – MCT oil appears to be the appropriate means of bolstering energy intake, more so in preemies. Olive oil just doesn’t seems to be the right option and it was also good to know that some of the units do not even use olive oil.
  4. I've read here that there are many lawsuits filed against the manufacturers of Similac and Enfamil. It appears they may have ignored the risks associated with these products for decades.
  5. The results of the clinical study using Monivent Neo100 are truly promising, and it's great to see innovative technology being used to improve newborn care. The significant reduction in excessive tidal volumes and mask leakage is a huge step forward in reducing the risk of brain injury and improving ventilation quality. Kudos to Dr. Robyn Dvorsky and the research team for their hard work and dedication to improving neonatal care. This study has the potential to make a real difference in the lives of newborns and their families.
  6. Newborn screening and genetic testing are complex issues. We need to think about what to test for, how to handle results that show diseases that'll appear later in life, and how to deal with the emotional impact on families. Some docs think we shouldn't test for diseases with no cure, and that this tech might only benefit rich families who want reassurance. Parents and docs should decide together whether to do these tests.
  7. The advantages of ultrasound-guidance in vascular access are first-pass success, which is less attempts time taken to achieve intravenous access, high patient satisfaction, reduction in puncture attempts, and complications, and cost in cases. Furthermore, it has been shown that the use of ultrasound guidance will minimize the chances of bleeding and nerve injury as well.
