Neonatal hypoglycemia algorithms improve hospital outcomes
Neonatal hypoglycemia is a common diagnosis for which management strategies vary. Our goal was to implement hypoglycemia algorithms (HGA) to streamline management of neonatal hypoglycemia within our hospital system and improve outcomes related to promoting the mother-infant dyad and decreasing … Continue reading
Of pregnancies complicated by small for gestational age babies at term, what proportions have placental findings with implications for future pregnancies or neonatal outcomes?
Abstract Background: Small for gestational age (SGA) is a term to define any baby born with birth weight <10th centile. SGA can be associated with a number of placental pathology findings, which may influence maternal outcomes, neonatal neurodevelopment, and future … Continue reading
Parental perceptions of neonatal therapeutic hypothermia; emotional and healing experiences
Abstract Introduction: Parents of infants who undergo therapeutic hypothermia experience emotional challenges that have not been fully characterized. Comprehensive understanding of the parental experience of hypothermia is needed to provide better care to the family of the infant. This study … Continue reading
Maternal and neonatal outcomes among scheduled versus unscheduled deliveries in women with prenatally diagnosed, pathologically proven placenta accreta
Abstract Objective: To evaluate maternal and neonatal outcomes among scheduled versus unscheduled deliveries in cases of prenatally diagnosed, pathologically proven placenta accreta. Study design: Retrospective cohort of placenta accreta cases delivered in five University of California hospitals. Results: Of 151 … Continue reading
Continuous glucose monitoring as a screening tool for neonatal hypoglycemia in infants of diabetic mothers
Abstract Objective: To assess the plausibility of using the continuous glucose monitoring as a sole source of data for the screening of the neonatal hypoglycemia. Study design: Infants of mothers with diabetes were screened for neonatal hypoglycemia (less than 2.5 mmol/l … Continue reading
Neonatal acute liver failure due to enteroviruses: a 14 years single NICU experience
Abstract Background: Neonatal acute liver failure (ALF) is a severe condition with a mortality rate up to 70%. Human enterovirus (HEV) infections are associated with serious diseases in newborns, including myocarditis, meningoencephalitis and, more rarely, ALF with a fulminant course. … Continue reading
