Western Sydney pensioner crochets 700 octopus toys for premature babies With materials, time and love, Bernice Joy Luxford has brought comfort to the sick infants and their emotionally and physically exhausted caregivers via over 700 octopus toys.

📣 Friday's Inspiring Story

At three Western Sydney hospitals, premature babies hold onto the tiny tentacles of crocheted octopuses rather than the clinical tubes that surround them in the neonatal intensive care unit

Quantitative assessment of neonatal health using dried blood spot metabolite profiles and deep learning Newborn screen metabolites encapsulate the risk for adverse outcomes of prematurity through a deep learning–based metabolic health index.

By applying #DeepLearning methods to routine blood spot samples from premature infants, researchers develop a metabolic health score that can stratify groups at risk of severe diseases of #prematurity.

34 in ’25 On this November 17, smack in the middle of Prematurity Awareness Month, as we celebrate World Prematurity Day right along with Isaac and Molly’s birthday, I worry for new parents of preemies…

Happy birthday and happy World Prematurity Day to my favorite 24-weekers. It's been quite a ride.

Today is #WorldPrematurityDay. We are sharing Missy Ellison's story with #prematurity with her daughter due to #preeclampsia

"I nearly lost my life to preeclampsia in 2019. My daughter was born at 30 weeks 3 days"

Leaving my preemies in the hospital was excruciating. I wanted my babies to know that we were always connected, even when we were apart. #Preemie #MicroPreemie #PrematureBaby #PrematurityAwarenessMonth #prematurity #NICU #preemiebook #NICUbook www.yourpreemiestory.com

It is often talked about how important bonding is after birth, but in a situation like #preeclampsia and #prematurity, that bonding may be delayed for weeks to months due to the health of the mother and/or baby.

The problem? These methods don’t agree with each other. Like at all.

Compared to ultrasound-based methods, these techniques overestimate the prevalence of #prematurity. This explains the inflated rates reported in routine data, and why we weren’t seeing #preterm births in our cohort.
