A family-centric, comprehensive nurse-led home oxygen programme for neonatal chronic lung disease: home oxygen policy evaluation (HOPE) study.
J Perinat Med
November 2024
University of Sydney, Camperdown, Australia.
Objectives: Considerable variation and little objective evidence exists to guide the use of supplemental oxygen therapy in infants with neonatal chronic lung disease (nCLD) after hospital discharge. We developed a new policy utilizing regular oximetry downloads to help determine commencement and titration of low flow oxygen. The aim of this policy is to improve safety and uniformity in practice and potentially lead to improvements in outcomes including the number of infants being discharged on home oxygen therapy (HOT) and length of stay (LOS).

This study involved the design and fabrication of a microfluidic chip integrated with permalloy micromagnets. The device was used with aptamer-modified magnetic beads (MBs) of various sizes to successfully separate lung cancer cells from a mixture of other cells. The overall separation efficiency was evaluated based on the ratios of cells in the different outlets and inlets of the chip.

Article Synopsis
- This study investigates how right ventricular (RV) dysfunction affects the outcomes of patients with low-flow, low-gradient aortic stenosis (LFLG-AS) who are undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR).
- Utilizing data from two Italian centers, it was found that RV dysfunction is linked to a significantly increased risk of all-cause death and major cardiovascular events after one year.
- The findings suggest that assessing RV dysfunction before TAVR can enhance the ability to predict patient prognosis.
Compact Arterial Monitoring Device Use in Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta (REBOA): A Simple Validation Study in Swine.

Department of Anesthesiology, Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences, Bethesda, USA.
Article Synopsis
- - Hemorrhage is the main cause of preventable death in trauma situations, leading to military and civilian advancements in medical practices, particularly through the use of tourniquets to manage extremity bleeding and save lives.
- - While tourniquets have significantly decreased deaths from bleeding in military settings, noncompressible hemorrhage still poses a major risk, especially before patients receive definitive medical care.
- - The study explores using a small, disposable pressure monitor during resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) to enhance blood pressure monitoring, facilitate better resuscitation practices, and reduce the need for blood products in extreme environments.
Has unsustainable groundwater use induced low flow regimes in the Urucuia Aquifer System? An urgent call for integrated water management.

Groundwater depletion in the Urucuia Aquifer System (UAS) has concerned the Brazilian water agencies since it is the principal water source in the arid length of the São Francisco river. In contrast, the irrigation fields increasing and uncertainty regarding climate variability have impaired the management of this important hydrograph region of Brazil. Therefore, the proper management of the UAS relies on the correct definition of the factors that are impacting most of the ground and surface waters, i.
