I’m pleased to welcome you to this podcast for a crucial topic in the care of preterm babies: the use of surfactant therapy guided by tests of their lung function. Practice is evolving in this area, and we’re here to discuss the latest evidence. Three guests are joining me today, Greta Sibrecht and Franek Borys, authors of the October 2023 Cochrane review, and, later, Anna Lavizzari, lead investigator for one of the ongoing studies.

The Cochr ane Neonatal Group produces and updates Cochrane Reviews to provide comprehensive coverage of the evidence on the care of babies and infants. In this podcast, we present an important topic in neonatal care: the management of pain and discomfort during spinal taps in newborns, for which a new Cochrane review was published in September 2023. In this podcast, two of the authors talk about the findings. Ehsan Hedayati and Sara Pessano, welcome to the podcast. Your browser does not support the audio

Dear Editor,We read with interest the article by Kuitunen and colleagues “Blinding Assessments in Neonatal Ventilation Meta-Analyses: A Systematic Meta-Epidemiological Review” [1]. The authors address a topic relevant to the interpretation of systematic reviews; the application of Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) to the assessment of study bias and the certainty of the evidence [2]. The authors conclude that the role of blinding has been overestimated in reviews addressing the effects of neonatal ventilation strategies, resulting in unjustified downgrading of the certainty of the evidence. Kuitunen and colleagues suggest that objective outcomes, such as mortality and bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), should not to be downgraded due to lack of blinding “as the knowledge of the received intervention does not influence the outcome assessment” [1]. This may not be accurate in all circumstances. Kuitunen and colleagues underestimate the impact of non

The question of whether and how to treat preterm infants with postnatal corticosteroids for the management of bronchopulmonary dysplasia, which is a chronic lung problem due to prematurity, has been a neonatologist’s quandary for decades. In August 2023, Cochrane Neonatal published a network meta-analysis on the use of postnatal corticosteroids for its prevention. In this podcast, Roger Soll of Cochrane Neonatal, talks with the lead author Susanne Hay, an attending neonatologist at Beth Israel Deaconess

Collapse all Expand all Background Infants born preterm are at increased risk of cognitive and motor impairments compared with infants born at term. Early developmental interventions for preterm infants are targeted at the infant or the parent‐infant relationship, or both, and may focus on different aspects of early development. They aim to improve developmental outcomes for these…

Mashup Score: 14Early versus late administration of amino acids in preterm infants receiving parenteral nutrition - Trivedi, A - 2024 | Cochrane Library - 1 year(s) ago
Collapse all Expand all Background Observational studies in preterm newborns suggest that delay in administering amino acids (AA) could result in a protein catabolic state and impact on growth and development. Objectives The objective of this review was to compare the efficacy and safety of early versus late administration of intravenous AA in neonates born at < 37 weeks of gestation. …
