Objective: To quantify initial tidal volume (VT) during neonatal volume-targeted ventilation (VTV) and to characterize the agreement of initial VT with the limited-evidence available.
Study Design: We performed a multi-center retrospective observational cohort study in two Neonatal Intensive Care Units evaluating 313 infants who received VTV as the initial ventilation modality prior to postnatal day 14. We generated descriptive statistics and performed multivariable logistic regression analysis to determine factors associated with initial VT use that agreed with available literature.
Results: 154 (49%) infants received an initial VT of 5.0 mL/kg (median 5.0 mL/kg, IQR 5.0-5.1). 45 (14%) infants received an initial VT that was congruent with available literature. A birth weight of 700 -<1250 g was significantly associated with an initial VT in agreement with VT literature (aOR 9.4, 95% CI 1.7-50.4).
Conclusions: Most infants receive an initial VT of 5.0 mL/kg.

Background: Drug use during pregnancy and post-partum undoubtedly significantly affects maternal and infant morbidity. Healthcare providers, especially midwives who care for pregnant and postpartum women, must possess adequate knowledge and clinical skills to manage their patients appropriately. This study aimed to determine the effect of an e-learning intervention on midwives' knowledge and clinical performance skills in caring for substance-dependent pregnant women during labor and post-partum.

Background: The Newborn Behaviour Observation system (NBO) is a flexible relationship-based intervention designed to sensitise parents to their newborn's capacities, to increase parental confidence and foster the bond between parent and infant. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of an NBO intervention on maternal confidence during the first month postpartum, and on the quality of mother-infant interaction at infant age 4 months in a sample of mothers who exhibit elevated signs of distress or depression during pregnancy and/or describe prior experiences of mental health issues.
Method: Pregnant women with current emotional distress and/or a history of anxiety and depression were recruited from a healthcare centre in Reykjavik, between August 2016 and April 2018.

Though several studies have demonstrated that preoperative oral feeding (PO) can be safe in patients with congenital heart disease, they are commonly prohibited from doing so, potentially precluding the development of such skills. We sought to determine whether preoperative oral feeding is associated with freedom from tube feeding at postoperative discharge. Single-center, observational study including patients in the first month of life (≤ 30 days of age) who underwent a single cardiac surgery between 7/1/2017-6/30/2022 and survived to discharge.
