Fantastic piece in @theguardian.com.

Doctors only see part of families' lives after brain injury in childhood, this illuminates a bit more of the other side.

Data on care & outcomes of neonates born at 22-23 weeks’ gestation (Iowa & Japan) #NeonatalUpdate
- Gestational age is not the same as maturity
- Different rates of LtFU across countries looking at neurodevelopment
- Different management, same outcome.

Just came off the phone with an old colleague, a neonatologist who went into Clinical Pharmacology. She told me about one of the best clinical resources for Neonatologists out there, and it’s free?

Why have you kept this to yourselves Down Under?

#Neosky

So much to do, and too little time to get things done…
But, wanted to share from #neomastodon to our neighbouring feed on #neosky that the conference below seems to be a fake / predatory event.

Finally made the leap to Bluesky!

Hoping to connect with fellow #NeoSky members & build a positive, collaborative space away from the chaos of #NeoTwitter.

Let’s keep the focus on learning, sharing, and advancing global neonatal care. 🚀👶 #FOAMneo #Neonatology

Our new video just dropped! Periocardiocentesis under real-time, in-plane ultrasound guidance. Safer, quicker, more convenient. It's boss-level Seldinger-technique, not for the feint of heart, but attainable in the right setting, with the righ plan and right backup.

Disturbing association between UK austerity policies with cuts to social security benefits and services and rise of preterm birth.

Association doesn't prove causation but worrisome
