Hepatic Failure and Hyperbilirubinemia Secondary to Hemolytic Disease of the Newborn. [PDF]
Anti‐D antibody is the most common cause of hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN). Other antigens have emerged, causing significant damage to the newborn. We report a case of a 31‐week dichorionic diamniotic twin born emergently to a mother with anti‐C and anti‐D antibodies who required multiple percutaneous umbilical cord blood sampling (PUBS) and ...

In Silico Modeling for Ex Vivo Placental Transfer of Morphine
Abstract Morphine may be administered in pregnant women as an analgesic agent. The transplacental pharmacokinetics (PK) of morphine varies during pregnancy because of physiological and metabolic changes. In this work, we use a multi‐compartment model to simulate ex vivo human placental transfer studies of morphine. The computational model is based on a

Abstract Haemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN) can be associated with significant morbidity. Prompt treatment with intensive phototherapy (PT) and exchange transfusions (ETs) can dramatically improve outcomes. ET is invasive and associated with risks. Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) may be an alternative therapy to prevent use of ET.
