Background: Physiological-based cord clamping (PBCC) in preterm infants is beneficial for cardiovascular transition at birth and may optimize placental transfusion. Whether PBCC can improve clinical outcomes is unknown. The aim of the Aeration, Breathing, Clamping (ABC3) trial was to test whether PBCC results in improved intact survival in very preterm infants.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFIntroduction: Caffeine is the registered pharmacologic treatment for apnea of prematurity and is extensively used in the neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) based on evidence from randomized controlled trials. This study aimed to describe the clinical use of caffeine based on real-world data, hypothesizing a divergence from the registered dosing regimen.
Methods: A retrospective analysis included infants born before 30 weeks of gestation, admitted to the NICU of the Erasmus MC Rotterdam from 2018 to 2021.
Article Synopsis
- The systematic review analyzes lung function in preterm-born children, who face increased risks of respiratory issues due to immature lung development.
- It includes data from 42 studies with over 4,700 preterm children, revealing they have significantly lower forced expiratory volume (FEV) compared to term-born peers.
- Key risk factors affecting FEV include gestational age, birthweight, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, and the use of mechanical ventilation, indicating that early developmental issues heavily influence long-term pulmonary health.
Objective: This study aims to evaluate the performance of the fabian-Predictive-Intelligent-Control-of-Oxygenation (PRICO) system for automated control of the fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO).
Design: Multicentre randomised cross-over study.
Setting: Five neonatal intensive care units experienced with automated control of FiO and the fabian ventilator.
