Dr.Smah

Hello 😊 I hope every one is great ...i am just interested to know ur opnion about the new sensors ( neonatal cap ) for new born ..is it safe ? Is there any comments or matter of interest regarding its us for cardiopulmonary monitor during resuscitation 🤔 Thanks in advance 🌷

Thank you 1st for your concern DR.Stefan ..i kept asking them till they explain for me that the Ag presentation on RBCs surface of neonates is weak and they cant depend in accurecy of blood typing test and it remains inaccurete in 1st 4 months of life ..so they went for coomb test from cord blood as screening for all neonates to overcome the falsies that may happen if depneds on blood typing tests ...i feel kind comfortable now 😁

In fact i want to have your point of view in the new neonatal screening they want to add in ksa ..to take cord blood sample for direct coomb test in delivery room to all neonate whatever healthy or not ..even if the blood groups of mother and bb are comptable ..if the baby get positive test he is considered for early diagnosis and management of hemolytic diaease caused by incompetability ... what do you think this will add ? I think RH and ABO can be expected ..? Is there any probability to have hemolysis even with comptable bl.groups? Does it really needs to be screened ?

Looking forward to it ...cant wait 😊

Yes really i still have this baby in my unit on mechanical ventilator 😔... suddenly the colonic gases appeared and intestinal sounds could be auscultated after 7 days ..your recommendation is absloutley right we have also brain atrophy in brain US.. high arched palate with clenched fists ..its matched with syndromatic etiology ...but do you suggest neuromuscular disease ?

I think pulmonary hemorrhage should be excluded also

Hi all doctors ..hope all fine ...i need to hear your experiences in this case Female 1 day old 2.4 kg .c/s .apgar score 2 ,5,7 ar 1st 5th 10th mins respectively ...severe RD in mechanical ventilator simv mode 26 pip ..peep 4..RR 60..fio2 70%.... RESOLVED respiratory acidosis with multiple skeltal dysplasias ..with absent intestinal sounds and absent colonic gases in x ray ..

I am very happy and can't waiting for 99nicu webinar.... great step 👍

Good evening doctors .. We practice that premature rupture of membranes more than 16 hour we should investgate baby for possible sepsis even if he is clinically good in 1 st 24 hours because infection may start to manifest after 2 or 3 days ...but what if the history of mother is only leakge for couple of days can this be considered PROM ? 🤔 Thanks in advance 🙂
