Association between route of furosemide administration and diuretic response in very preterm infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia
Abstracts Furosemide is commonly prescribed in hospitalized infants with grade 2-3 bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). Intravenous (IV), gastric, and duodenal administrations are common, with a 1:2 IV-to-enteral conversion often used despite uncertain bioavailability. Our objective was to compare diuretic responses between routes in infants with BPD. Single-center observational cohort of very preterm infants with grade 2-3 BPD prescribed furosemide.
Health of preterm infants being threatened
As neonatologists, we care for the most fragile newborns, some no larger than the size of their parent’s hand. These preterm newborns face many medical challenges. Their lungs and other organs are not fully developed, including their digestive system. Their skin can be paper thin, more vulnerable to injury and less protective against infection. They often need help breathing, maintaining their body temperature and gaining weight.

Loop Diuretics in Severe Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia: Cumulative Use and Associations with Mortality and Age at Discharge.
Objectives To measure between-center variation in loop diuretic use for infants developing severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in United States children’s hospitals, and to compare mortality and age at discharge among infants from low versus high use centers. Study design We performed a retrospective cohort study of preterm infants <32 weeks gestational age developing severe BPD.

The Maturation of a Proficient Neonatologist: From the Delivery Room to Independent Practice
A critical question for all pediatric fellowship training programs is whether the clinical experiences and education provided prepare trainees for “life after fellowship.” One essential potential exposure gap for fellows in neonatal-perinatal medicine (NPM) is in delivery room resuscitation of extremely preterm infants. These deliveries are rare (∼1% of all deliveries), and numbers vary considerably between training sites.
Diagnosis and Management of Gastroesophageal Reflux in Preterm Infants
Gastroesophageal reflux (GER), generally defined as the passage of gastric contents into the esophagus, is an almost universal phenomenon in preterm infants. It is a common diagnosis in the NICU; however, there is large variation in its treatment across NICU sites. In this clinical report, the physiology, diagnosis, and symptomatology in preterm infants as well as currently used treatment strategies in the NICU are examined.
Gastroesophageal reflux in preterm infants: guidance on diagnosis, management
Your neonatologist colleague is caring for a 3-week-old former 28-week infant on nasal cannula oxygen and caffeine therapy for apnea of prematurity in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). On rounds one morning, a nurse comments that the recurrent apnea episodes appear worse, and the baby is frequently irritable and difficult to settle after a feeding. Discussion ensues as to whether these signs might be attributable to gastroesophageal reflux (GER).
AAP: Gastroesophageal reflux in preterm infants normal, resolves with age
Gastroesophageal reflux, a common and normal condition among preterm neonates, should be diagnosed using signs of the condition such as feeding intolerance and irritability, and treated without the use of pharmacologic agents, according to a clinical report issued by the AAP Committee on Fetus and Newborn. This condition, according to Eric C.
