Neonatal admission hypothermia (HT) is a frequently encountered problem in
neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) and it has been linked to a higher risk of
mortality and morbidity. However, there is a disparity in data in the existing
literature regarding the prevalence and outcomes associated with HT in very low
birth weight (VLBW) infants. This review aimed to provide further summary and

Abstract Background In this study, we assessed the communication strategies used
by neonatologists in antenatal consultations which may influence decision-making
when determining whether to provide resuscitation or comfort measures only in
the care of periviable neonates. Methods This study employed a qualitative study
design using inductive thematic discourse analysis of ‘naturally occurring data... hiện toàn bộ
Addressing ethical issues related to prenatal diagnostic proceduresMaternal Health, Neonatology and Perinatology - Tập 9 Số 1
Dan K. Kaye
Abstract Background For women of advanced maternal age or couples with high risk
of genetic mutations, the ability to screen for embryos free of certain genetic
mutations is reassuring, as it provides opportunity to address age-related
decline in fertility through preimplantation genetic testing. This procedure has
potential to facilitate better embryo selection, improve implantation rates with

Medium-chain Acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (MCADD) is the most common
inherited disorder of fatty acid beta-oxidation. Signs and symptoms of MCADD
typically appear during infancy or early childhood and include vomiting,
lethargy, and hypoglycemia. Pulmonary haemorrhage has previously been described
in patients with MCADD, but has always been considered a pre-terminal
complication caused by hea... hiện toàn bộ
Neuroprotective potential of erythropoietin in neonates; design of a randomized trialMaternal Health, Neonatology and Perinatology - - 2015

In 2013, nearly four million babies were born in the U.S., among whom 447,875
were born preterm. Approximately 30,000 of these infants were born before
28 weeks of gestation. These infants, termed Extremely Low Gestational Age
Neonates (ELGANs), experience high morbidity and mortality despite modern
therapies: approximately 20 % of ELGANs admitted to an NICU die before
discharge, 20 % of survivors... hiện toàn bộ
