38% of babies with mild HIE have special educational needs at School age. Can cooling prevent this? World’s first RCT of Cooling in Mild HIE (COMET) opens recruitment – 426 babies from 50 NHS hospitals. https://t.co/CAUglm9v4w @PeepsHie @Atul_Monash @BAPM_Official @ImperialPaeCH

Best COMET site initiation ever! Huge thanks to Mel and the team at Plymouth – even the foundation officers got trained on expanded modified Sarnat staging. Excited to open COMET at Derriford Hospital soon! @NewbornBrains @PeepsHie @HopeforHIE @ImperialPaeCH @Atul_Monash

Congratulations to Dr. Vaisakh Krishnan on successfully defending his PhD Viva! 🎉 His in-depth research on the timing and origin of brain injury in HIE in LMIC is truly outstanding. @ImperialBrains @PeepsHie @HopeforHIE @ImperialPaeCH

Fantastic opportunity to learn & engage with health professionals in Hisar, Haryana, India this week running @onesimeducation workshops to improve obstetric & newborn emergency management. #IPE #SimEd #MedEd Courtesy Dr Reema Garegrat @SudhinThayyil @CPN_NeoNeuro @ImperialPaeCH

Congratulations to Dr Pallavi Muraleedharan on successful PhD defence on systemic factors and a prediction tool for HIE using AI @PeepsHie @HopeforHIE @Atul_Monash @ImperialBrains @ImperialPaeCH @OBSevidence @DameTina1

Is Quantitative research from Mars and Qualitative from Venus? We need to both to make sense of the data and to improve health outcomes – and that is all what matters ! @ImperialMed @ImperialBrains @ImperialPaeCH @PeepsHie @HopeforHIE @NeonatalSociety @OBSevidence @DameTina1

One more Super PhD without any corrections – Congrats to Dr Stuti Pant PhD. @ImperialBrains @ImperialPaeCH @PeepsHie @HopeforHIE @Atul_Monash @OBSevidence @Blisscharity

National Neonatology Forum (India) should be commended for their thoughtful position statement for de-implementation of cooling in LMIC – "primum non nocere" https://t.co/iIGGGKjZ5p @Nnfindia1 @PeepsHie @HopeforHIE @ImperialPaeCH @Atul_Monash @Dr_KS_Gautham @NewbornBrains

Congrats to Constance Burgod on an outstanding PhD on gene expression in HIE. Finally, there is scope for HIE disease stratification. Start of an illustrious academic career (No head-hunters please)@ImperialPaeCH @PeepsHie @HopeforHIE @ImperialBrains @ImperialInfect

Erythropoietin monotherapy given within 6h for 9 days, halved neonatal death in this multicentre pilot RCT from South Asia. Timing looks key to neuroprotection in HIE? https://t.co/3xm4OUt8AM @Atul_Monash @PeepsHie @HopeforHIE @ImperialPaeCH @ela_chak @OBSevidence

COMET pilot trial out (JAMA N) – highest [NAA] level in normothermia, followed by 48 h and lowest with 72 h cooling. Suggest caution on cooling babies with mild HIE outside a clinical trial @Atul_Monash @ImperialBrains @ImperialPaeCH @HopeforHIE @PeepsHie https://t.co/0obe64h4G5

Super proud of my "Early Neurodevelopment Clinic" team. We were early adopters of international guidelines: https://t.co/o6i0t1h6f1 Read about sensitivity & accuracy of early assessments in new 📃 by @DrAbdulRazak_MD in @JAMANetworkOpen: https://t.co/PR1Hk57n7j @EBNEO @ESPR_ESN

Levetiracetam not controlling electrographic seizures but are we giving it too late? https://t.co/ysOcNsNIlM @ImperialPaeCH @Atul_Monash @NeonatalUpdate @EBNEO @youngepilepsy @IlaeWeb @ILAEBRITISH @CPN_NeoNeuro

Gene expression shed lights into the high occurrence of HIE in South Asia and lack of hypothermic neuroprotection. https://t.co/azf8jcNtwG https://t.co/yFZY5jbDoR @Atul_Monash @ImperialPaeCH @NIHRglobal @OBSevidence @NeonatalUpdate @EBNEO @acunningID @MARCH_LSHTM @Azeem_Majeed
