Louisiana has declared May 17 as NEC Awareness Day!

We're grateful to Michael Melerine & the parents of Rocco, who developed NEC after being born at 31wks & required multiple bowel resections.

We now have #NECawareness in CA, PA & LA with many more states to come! #preventNEC

Just a reminder that the Live Scan now available on NeoCardioLab app and website under TnECHO section and on YouTube youtu.be/Yj_gsBd8h8A?si…

In preemies < 32 weeks we just might be able to save a bit of blood by sampling the cord instead for the CBC. Quite accurate I would say!

I’m proud of this work and want to extend a special thank you to the parents who participated in the study! I hope this helps enhance the communication we provide to moderately preterm infant families.

Get ready for #PAS2025 ! Mark your calendars, and don't miss out on these important dates. It's going to be an event to remember! 📅

Liz Foglia on alternative modes of consent at #PAS2024

My Q to #neotwitter :

Is it more risky for 22-23 weekers to receive whatever local management is, or to be enrolled using a waiver in an RCT to determine the best early intervention?

Brett J. Manley 🤷🏼‍♂️ Pediatric Academic Societies The amount of scientific dialogue shouldn’t be stratified by study design. Would we want a meeting that would have given Watson, Crick et al less than a RCT?

Excited for Dustin Daniel Flannery to lead a session on RSV prevention! I’m happy we have multiple immunologic interventions! Now which to use?

Among neonates undergoing urgent endotracheal intubation, video laryngoscopy resulted in a greater number of successful intubations on the first attempt than direct laryngoscopy. #PAS2024 #neoEBM #neoTwitter

Another blow for high flow! Longer CPAP in preterm infants = better alveolar lung volumes at 6 months. Don't rush babies off CPAP. FEV also better in those babies with better clinical outcomes.
