The country where you are born matters a lot to outcome at 22-23 weeks gestation. Across 11 neonatal networks survival and outcomes vary widely In terms of survival #Japan & #Swedenseem to come out on top. #neotwitter.

I never met a baby I didn't like. I didn't always appreciate how they behaved in the #NICU but with age I learned not to take it too personally. #neotwitter

Put one in the win column for #probiotics. Receipt of probiotics in #preemies may suppress antimicrobial resistance. #IDTwitter #neotwitter.

HIE and acute kidney injury are a bad combination.Follow-up assessments of 33 survivors revealed ⬆️ blood pressure in 12%, hyperfiltration in 18%, & proteinuria in 6%. Not sure how long f/u though but should they be targeted for CKD screening?.#neotwitter

Although darbepoetin for newborns 23-29 weeks increased RBCs and decreased transfusions sadly it didn’t translate into better neurodevelopmental outcome.The silver bullet remains elusive!.#neotwitter .
