Providing very low-birth-weight infants with fast enteral feeding reduced how long they needed a central venous catheter. [PDF]
Abstract Aim To determine the impact of the protocol change from slow to fast enteral feeding progression on duration of central venous catheter placement, and the rates of late‐onset sepsis and necrotising enterocolitis. Methods We compared the evolution of all very low‐birth‐weight infants admitted on their first postnatal day in neonatal intensive ...

Correlation of Transcutaneous pCO<sub>2</sub> and Capillary pCO<sub>2</sub> in Newborn Patients Depending on Gestational Age: A Secondary Data Analysis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Introduction Transcutaneous monitoring of CO2 partial pressure (tcpCO2) provides continuous information about the CO2 partial pressure in the blood (pCO2). However, the deviation of tcpCO2 from pCO2 is variable. Our aim was to assess whether this deviation depends on gestational age in the first postnatal week.

Adverse outcomes after red blood cell transfusion in very low birth weight infants in a resource-restricted hospital. [PDF]
Abstract Background Red blood cell transfusions (RBCTs) in preterm infants are associated with various adverse outcomes including transfusion‐associated necrotizing enterocolitis (TANEC) and transfusion‐related late‐onset sepsis (TR‐LOS). This study aimed to determine the adverse outcomes of RBCTs in very low birth weight infants (VLBWI) at a resource ...
