Effect of Neonatal Unit Interventions Designed to Increase Breastfeeding in Preterm Infants: An Overview of Systematic Reviews
CONCLUSION: There is ample evidence to support investment in KMC, avoidance of bottles during breastfeed establishment, cup feeding, and QI bundles targeted at better supporting breastfeeding in neonatal units to increase prevalence of breastfeeding in preterm infants and promote equal access to breastmilk. Stratifying effects by relevant subgroups is a research priority.PMID:38513630 | DOI:10.1159/000536660 (Source: Neonatology)

Less Invasive Surfactant Administration Compared to Intubation, Surfactant, Rapid Extubation Method in Preterm Neonates: An Umbrella Review
CONCLUSIONS: All the included systematic reviews and meta-analyses reported LISA to be more effective than INSURE in terms of need for mechanical ventilation and death or BPD. However, the quality of the published systematic reviews has been mostly deficient. Future systematic reviews should focus on reporting quality.PMID:38503270 | DOI:10.1159/000537903 (Source: Neonatology)

Elevated Urine Hyaluronan Concentrations Are Associated with an Unfavorable Respiratory Outcome in Preterm Neonates at 40 Weeks Postmenstrual Age
CONCLUSION: Neonatal urine screening for HA could identify infants at risk for death or need for respiratory support at term-corrected age (40 weeks PMA). The relationship between elevated HA at 1 week and an unfavorable 40 week outcome was stronger in infants with lower GA.PMID:38484718 | DOI:10.1159/000535185 (Source: Neonatology)

Temporal Trends in Severe Brain Injury and Associated Outcomes in Very Preterm Infants
CONCLUSION: Neither the rates of SBI nor its associated composite outcome of death or NDI improved over time. A notable proportion of preterm infants with SBI faced redirection of care and subsequent mortality, while most survivors exhibited adverse neurodevelopmental challenges. The development of better therapeutic interventions is imperative to improve outcomes for these vulnerable infants.PMID:38471459 | DOI:10.1159/000537801 (Source: Neonatology)

Positive Pressure Ventilation in Preterm Infants in the Delivery Room: A Review of Current Practices, Challenges, and Emerging Technologies
Neonatology. 2024 Mar 11:1-10. doi: 10.1159/000537800. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBACKGROUND: A major proportion of preterm neonates require positive pressure ventilation (PPV) immediately after delivery. PPV may be administered through a face mask (FM) or nasal prongs. Current literature indicates that either of these are associated with similar outcomes.SUMMARY: Nonetheless, FM remains the most utilized and the best choice. However, most available FM sizes are too large for extremely preterm infants, which leads to mask leak and ineffective PPV. Challenges to providing effective PPV include poor respiratory drive, com...
