What is your first line vasoactive agent to treat hypotension/hypoperfusion in the #NICU ? Are you a #dopamine fan? A review article in @JPerinatology by @CardioNeo @HebertAudrey3 @SBhombalK3 @ShiranSMoore @StephFordNeoPH and Rios - full text at rdcu.be/eD0jX

@HebertAudrey3 @NeoHemodynamics Thank you Audrey for being amazing and making this paper happen!

Happy to see our paper “Physiology-guided vasoactive therapy in neonates: rethinking dopamine as first-line” in the Journal of Perinatology. We enjoyed writing it and hope you’ll enjoy reading it. Thank you to my amazing co-authors @NeoHemodynamics nature.com/articles/s4137…

@HebertAudrey3 @PASMeeting @NeoHeartSociety I absolutely cannot stop laughing ☠️

Forever associated with breaking-up with dopamine 😂 @PASMeeting @NeoHeartSociety

Our article "Optimizing management of chronic pulmonary hypertension in preterm infants: strategies for a complex population" is out in Current Opinion in Pediatrics. With @CMichelK, @HebertAudrey3 journals.lww.com/co-pediatrics/… @neo_twiter @EBNEO @NeoToday @NeoHemodynamics

If you wonder how and why the @CleGuardians organization wins, check out this example, as the Columbus clubhouse watches their just-called-up teammate, Jhonkensy Noel, homers in his first MLB at-bat.

@CardioNeo @mcgillu @McGillMed What?!? I thought I was going to get expelled for “skipping” a group session when my grandmother was dying. And that was after I called my dean to tell him why I wouldn’t be there. This is craziness.

Was moderating a small group PBL learning at faculty of medicine. Only half attendance because apparently weather is nice and they are allowed to skip 3 small groups. Might be for other reasons but if true - @mcgillu @McGillMed a bit disappointing and disheartening

The next NHRC Site Presentation is May 15th @ 2pm ET on Precision in the Care of Infants with HIE. Drs. Marjorie Makoni and Pearl Chatmethakul will be joined by panelists Drs. Khorshid Mohammad, Pia Wintermark and Phil Levy! us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regist… #neotwitter #neohemodynamics

It’s almost the end of @pasmeeting Now listening to our Rainbow fellow Nadine-stella Achenchang @RBCNeoFellows @UHRainbowBabies #PAS2024

Shout-out to @ritarneo for being an extraordinary mentor. She works incredibly hard to make @PASMeeting an amazing experience year after year, and she connects more people than anyone I have ever met. #PAS2024 #HerSuperPowerIsNetworking @UHRainbowBabies @UH_RE_Institute

Dr. Stephanie Martinez, one of our 3rd yr fellows presenting her work on intermittent hypoxemia and systemic hypertension in preterm infants @PASMeeting #PAS2024

Rainbow Babies strong at #PAS2024! @PASMeeting

Dr. Alicia Cousins, one of our 3rd year fellows presenting her work on ethanol and lipid raft metabolism! Congrats on the great work, Alicia! @PASMeeting #PAS2024

Dr. Anantha Harijith, one of @UHRainbowBabies NICU attendings presenting his group's work on NADPH oxidase 4 in BPD. @PASMeeting #PAS2024

Dr. Shannon McAllister, 2nd year NICU fellow @UHRainbowBabies presenting her work on role of Piezo1 in CPAP-induced airway injury. @PASMeeting #PAS2024

Fantastic talk on the end of era of dopamine use in the NICU by @HebertAudrey3 at @PASMeeting #PAS2024

The good thing about going to medical school in your 20s is that you don’t see your connection to youth and pop culture slowly slip away, you just go in the box and come out 8-10 years later like Captain America coming out of the ice.

@CardioNeo @Imuthay @rehman_naveed @souvik_neo @neo_twiter @TapasKNeo 10 days is a bit early for us. We have been using Dr. Harmon’s paper (shout out to Heidi Harmon and her awesome work pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32020038/). But I’m always open to new data.

@Imuthay @rehman_naveed @souvik_neo @neo_twiter @TapasKNeo We follow results from recent meta-regression outlining that higher chance of developing BPD => steroids favourable in terms of NeuroDev outcomes. We tend to start Dexamethasone (DART or higher mg/kg if needed...) starting day 10 if intubated with at least M>=10, FiO2 >=30%

@neo_twiter @souvik_neo @TapasKNeo 25 weeks neonate, closed PDA, treated for E.Coli sepsis, failed extubation in 3rd week now 4 weeks old on invasive (conventional) ventilation MAP around 11-12, Fio2-0.3; on diuretics for last one week. What would you do ?
