Lost in Transition: A Systematic Review of Neonatal Electroencephalography in the Delivery Room—Are We Forgetting an Important Biomarker for Newborn …
2017
Background: Electroencephalography (EEG) monitoring is routine in neonatal intensive care units (NICU) for detection of seizures, neurological monitoring of infants following perinatal asphyxia, and increasingly, following preterm delivery. EEG monitoring is not routinely commenced in the delivery room (DR). Objectives: To determine the feasibility of recording neonatal EEG in the DR, and to assess its usefulness as a marker of neurological wellbeing during immediate newborn transition. Methods: We performed a systematic stepwise search of PubMed using the following terms: infant, newborns, neonate, delivery room, afterbirth, transition and electroencephalography. Only human studies describ…
Clinicians in 25 countries prefer to use lower levels of oxygen to resuscitate preterm infants at birth.
2016
Aim This study determined current international clinical practice and opinions regarding initial fractional inspired oxygen (FiO2) and pulse oximetry (SpO2) targets for delivery room resuscitation of preterm infants of less than 29 weeks of gestation. Methods An online survey was disseminated to neonatal clinicians via established professional clinical networks using a web-based survey programme between March 9 and June 30, 2015. Results Of the 630 responses from 25 countries, 60% were from neonatologists. The majority (77%) would target SpO2 between the 10th to 50th percentiles values for full-term infants. The median starting FiO2 was 0.3, with Japan using the highest (0.4) and the UK usi…

Resume Objectif Apprecier le taux d’intubation en salle de naissance des grands prematures nes par cesarienne avant travail, en fonction du type d’anesthesie maternelle (rachianesthesie versus anesthesie generale [AG]). Population et methode Deux cent dix-neuf grands prematures (28–32 semaines d’amenorrhee) nes vivants par cesarienne avant travail dans une des 27 maternites de 2 reseaux perinatals (Poitou-Charentes et Franche-Comte). Cent quatre-vingt-deux sur 219 (83 %) sont nes dans la maternite regionale de reference de type III. Resultats Parmi les grands prematures (73/219), 33,3 % ont beneficie d’une intubation en salle de naissance, quelle qu’en soit l’indication (mauvaise adaptation…
