Listen to this great @nicupodcast session with Prof Brett Manley explaining adaptive platform trials, the new black in trial design.
@Brett - good work, with the Platipus platform you are on to something that will have true impact for the #nicuverse! Looking fw what to come! […]
We have submitted an abstract to #CEPAS , hope to present some really nice results there :)
To all in the #nicuverse - the abstract submission deadline is extended until 15 April, so still ample time to follow our example!

@Iroshini Welcome to the #nicuverse!
Find a #NeoMastodon Starter Pack here: fedidevs.com/s/NTk4/
and always feel free to connect if you need assistance with anything here!
Maybe the #nicuverse is not yet populated enough for a discussion about this, but I still want to share this here.
Hi to @neonatalethics @keithbarrington @Gotped @padkaer
I foresee professional ethical battles (discussions) around preterm infants will take re-surface, similar to the battles […]
. @ESPR_ESN , welcome to the #nicuverse! Looking fw to share about #CEPAS in this space!

The #PREMILOC strategy (low-dose hydrocortisone to prevent BPD) seems to work also in Sweden (no surprise!). An observational study based on national register data out now in JAMA Ped.

Hi @gautham - great to see you in the #nicuverse and let me know of you need any support! Hope more EBNEO-folks will follow!
Start by following some accounts, such as @nicupodcast @99nicu @Kaltirkawi @piatkat @Gotped @padkaer @brar @DrVickyPayne @actapaed @fracardo @aprendizdeprematuros […]
@ilana-abc.bsky.social Hi from the #nicuverse (Mastodon)!
My gut feeling - ProPrems has foremost been introduced in units with complicated case loads, i.e. higher baseline risk. Dutch data reported at ESPGHAN-25 showed that their implementation reduced NEC (any, surgical, fatal) by about 60% […]
Great to see that Prof Gautham Suresh takes over as chair of EBNEO!
Lets hope Gautham and team starts to share #NeoEBM also in the #nicuverse !
The plan is also to register EBNEO as a nonprofit org in the US (and de-reg as a nonprofit org in Sweden), a good […]

Hi all in the #nicuverse , share your practise in the @99nicu forums below! https://nicuverse.org/@99nicu/115769848308549486
#nicuverse alert!
In case you didnt know, alprostadil/prostaglandin E formulations contain ethanol, and always use the 500 mcg/mL formulation.
We published this case report in @actapaed about an infant that got severely intoxicated by ethanol while waiting for corrective surgery, due to that a […]
Interesting paper for the #nicuverse, hot off the press (out yesterday).
Clearly, the FDA warnings regarding probiotics use in 2023, that practically led to that US NICUs stopped using probiotics, resulted in a re-bound in NEC-rates after the decrease seen after probiotics was introduced.
Food […]
Family reflections on HIE - this is read for all in the #nicuverse.
Thank you @HopeforHIE for sharing

Dear all in the #nicuverse - check out this thread! https://nicuverse.org/@Kaltirkawi/115542948201458304
As promised, here’s some bits and pieces from the #N3 Study Day, as a long #NeoMastodon thread. Hope it finds some reads in the #nicuverse! Apologies for the many words! (1/18)
Great to be at the #N3 (Neonatal Nutrition Network, URL below) Study Day and attending the workshop about early exclusive enteral feeding in preterm infants. The FEED1 trial (link below!) showing that exclusive enteral feeding works equally well compared to enteral+iv nutrition, is IMHO my fav […]
@padkaer.bsky.social Great rant BTW, I push it further into the #nicuverse!
Survival has improved in Swedish infants born at 22-26 weeks, while neurodevelopmental outcomes have not, according to this deep dive into national register data. Similar findings have been BTW reported from other contexts, like Au.
Why this, despite all investments (time, effort, money) in […]
While travelling home from #jENS2025 , I was thinking about that/how the neonatal social media feeds feels so... collapsed.
But I believe in the #nicuverse and #NeoMastodon!
Long version ⬇️ in the Dept of Brilliant Ideas […]
And, along those lines, next up in this #jENS2025 session is @DrVickyPayne in our @99nicu team, sharing a wonderful talk about developing neonatal nursing research capacity and capability.
There is such a large unmet need of this, but the opportunities are few […]

Refl to the #nicuverse from #jENS2025 and the talk by Rosemarie Boland about variations in the care of 22week infants - there is IMHO a sound shift in "acceptance" for care at this gest week. It goes without saying that outcomes depend on what/whether care is […]

Am at #JENS2025, great #nicuverse gathering in Belgrade.
Had an interesting conversation today with @DrVickyPayne
Whether we have entered the “post-evidence-based” era.
Analogous to “postmodernism., leading to a paralytic state of things.
Change is hold back because there is always the case that […]
And now, the The Budesonide in Babies (BiB) trial is published too, showing no benefit with regard to BPD risk in extr preterm infants. With the PLUSS trial findings from last year, this concept should be a dead duck now for the #nicuverse (?)
#NeoMastodon […]
Another step towards non-invasive respiratory support among extremely preterm infants: nasal HFOV was clearly better than nasal CPAP in reducing the need of intubation, absolute risks were 16 vs 28% the first 72 hours, and 21 vs 34% the first week of life […]

SmallDog<>BigDogAttitude regards to the #nicuverse from XXXI CONGRESSO NAZIONALE SOCIETÀ ITALIANA DI NEONATOLOGIA, in Montesilvano, am here under my Neobiomics hat.
Big interest in IT around probiotics, and ARA:DHA supplementation too.
Great episode from the ESN Neonatology Now pod, featuring Prof Barbara Schmidt discussing caffeine for apnea of prematuritet.
Super-interesting (if you fly around in the #nicuverse!), and gives food (coffee!) for thoughts, e.g. that more may not be better (far to common misconception!) […]
Re the paracetamol <> autism paper, senior author Prof Brian Lee was recently interviewed by JAMA, a well-balanced discussion with one of their Deputy Editors.
Can recommend for the #nicuverse
