This study aimed to explore the criteria used to assess oxygen requirement after discharge in chronic lung disease
Abstract:
In order to survey current management of oxygen in children with chronic lung disease (CLD) of prematurity in the United Kingdom and Ireland, 260 questionnaires asking about criteria that were considered important when removing supplemental oxygen from a child with CLD were sent to consultant paediatricians identified as being likely to be involved in the follow-up of children with CLD. more...

This study aimed to explore current blood gas monitoring in very low birth weight infants receiving respiratory support
Abstract:
Aim: To determine the frequency with which different methods of blood gas monitoring are used during each phase of neonatal critical care. Method: Data on the modality of monitoring of respiratory gas parameters in very low birth weight (VLBW) infants receiving respiratory support (ventilation or supplemental oxygen) were requested from 101 neonatal units in the United Kingdom (UK) and more...

The aim of this study was to examine if predictive values of high risk markers Apgar, acidosis and others - would be increased if early continuous electroencephalographic monitoring allowed accurate identification of all neonatal seizures
Abstract:
BACKGROUND: After perinatal asphyxia, predicting which infants will develop significant hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy and neonatal seizures remains a difficult task. High-risk markers (Apgar score, acidosis, nucleated red blood cells, and resuscitation) have been used to predict neonatal seizures with varying success. The "3 strikes" of Apgar score of <5 at 5 minutes, pH more...

This study aimed to assess whether increased collagenolysis precedes severe chronic lung disease
Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To assess whether increased collagenolysis precedes severe chronic lung disease (CLD). METHODS: Matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) and MMP-8 (enzymes that degrade type I collagen, the main structural protein of lung extracellular matrix) were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay in 100 bronchoalveolar lavage samples taken during the first 6 postnatal days from 45 more...
