I am a many degrees of crazy mum, coupled with long hours at work and the guilt feelings that accompany the hours away. I have these on my wall at work to remind me; as if I can ever forget. Pls stay home and be safe. Wash your hands too.

@Chima_Obi1234 Oh my goodness!😢🥹

“We were in Lagos for Christmas. Nkanu had what we first thought was just a cold, but soon turned into a very serious infection and he was admitted to Atlantis hospital. He was to travel to the US the next day, January 7th, accompanied by Travelling Doctors. A team at Johns Hopkins was waiting to receive him in Baltimore. The Hopkins team had asked for a lumbar puncture test and an MRI. The Nigerian team had also decided to put in a 'central line' (used to administer iv medications) in preparation for Nkanu's flight. Atlantis hospital referred us to Euracare Hospital, which was said to be the best place to have the procedures done. The morning of the 6th, we left Atlantis hospital for Euracare, Nkanu carried in his father's arms. We were told he would need to be sedated to prevent him from moving during the MRI and the 'central line' procedure. I was waiting just outside the theater. I saw people, including Dr M, rushing into the theater and immediately knew something had happened. A short time later, Dr M came out and told me Nkanu had been given too much propofol by the anesthesiologist, had become unresponsive and was quickly resuscitated. But suddenly Nkanu was on a ventilator, he was intubated and placed in the ICU. The next thing I heard was that he had seizures. Cardiac arrest. All these had never happened before. Some hours later, Nkanu was gone It turns out that Nkanu was NEVER monitored after being given too much propofol. The anesthesiologist had just casually carried Nkanu on his shoulder to the theater, so nobody knows when exactly Nkanu became unresponsive. How can you sedate a sick child and neglect to monitor him? Later, after the 'central line' procedure, the anesthesiologist casually switched off Nkanu's oxygen and again decided to carry him on his shoulder to the ICU! The anesthesiologist was CRIMINALLY negligent. He was fatally casual and careless with the precious life of a child. No proper protocol was followed. We brought in a child who was unwell but stable and scheduled to travel the next day. We came to conduct basic procedures. And suddenly, our beautiful little boy was gone forever. It is like living your worst nightmare. I will never survive the loss of my child. We have now heard about two previous cases of this same anesthesiologist overdosing children. Why did Euracare allow him to keep working? This must never happen to another child”. CNA

The importance of stupidity in scientific research

With the publication of the NICHD PDA Trial, we revisit PDA in Prematurity: Rethinking a Decades-Old Debate (2025). In 482 infants (22–28 wks), expectant management showed no difference in death/BPD vs treatment and higher survival. neocardiolab.com/tnecho-and-neo…

My 13 year old Daughter died from #BrainCancer 4,679 days ago. 💔 I would LOVE to see my Ashley’s name 4,679 times in comments for all the days she’s been missing. When you lose a Child, the most beautiful word you can hear is their name. ❤️ A Repost & Follow would mean the world to us to keep our Ashley’s story alive. 💜 𝒜𝓈𝒽𝓁𝑒𝓎 💜

Neurodevelopmental outcomes at 2 year olds of infants born at 22–26 weeks gestation across two epochs in Sweden Despite increased survival from 2004–2007 to 2014–2016, neurodevelopmental outcomes have not improved. Low gestational age and maternal country of birth outside the Nordic region were strongest predictors of neurodevelopmental impairment and cognitive delay

FEED 1 trial results out in @LancetChildAdol: In infants born at 30+0 weeks to 32+6 weeks of gestation, full milk feeds from day 1 did not alter length of hospital stay. Paper: buff.ly/Hu8KKsv Comment: buff.ly/umR4JG7 #EBNEOAlerts #neoEBM
