@BrianKingNeo @neosatyan @natetexsun @CardioNeo @vkakkilaya Correct!

[Dr Anna Kidman @AnnaKidman3]

@BrianKingNeo @neosatyan @natetexsun @CardioNeo @vkakkilaya The ÉCLAT infants would likely have a slightly different lung pathology at this stage. Very thought provoking!

Personally I do wonder if there is a mechanical element to higher CPAP levels assisting in narrowing/ closing PDAs but that is just me musing 💭 🤷‍♀️ 🫁

[Dr Anna Kidman @AnnaKidman3]

@BrianKingNeo @neosatyan @natetexsun @CardioNeo @vkakkilaya Oooooo interesting questions! Brian is correct- ÉCLAT population was a little different… keep in mind most of our infants had surfactant at birth (or very soon after), were mechanically ventilated and then extubated on (median) day 3 to CPAP level of either 8 or 10cmH2O.

[Dr Anna Kidman @AnnaKidman3]

Thank you for reviewing our trial!!

[The Incubator Podcast @nicupodcast]

Extubation failure occurs in over half of extremely preterm infants extubated to standard CPAP levels but drops to about one-third when using higher CPAP levels of 10 cm H2O. This simple adjustment could substantially reduce reintubation and improve respiratory outcomes in these vulnerable babies.

@docfortots @nicupodcast It is true, but not impossible 🫁

@natetexsun @docfortots @nicupodcast The truest of true memes!

[Dr Anna Kidman @AnnaKidman3]

@jose_river1978 @nicupodcast I love this idea!

[Dr Anna Kidman @AnnaKidman3]

Wow! What a way to start the new year after a break from social media!

The ÈCLAT trial took a village! The work supporting respiratory support for preterm infants isn’t over yet! We only scratched the surface 🫁 🌟

For a 22 week 400g infant intubated in the delivery room, with minimal oxygen requirement, normal blood gases, spontaneous respiratory effort and no other major contraindications, I would attempt extubation:

@TheAnondroid3 @drbretty @ccroehr @neonataldoc @drpaulclarke @amitguptabliss A “non-superior support” whilst not technically incorrect, Im not sure I like this tone Sir… #nCPAP4Ever also, condolences for the cricket… 😬

[Dr Anna Kidman @AnnaKidman3]

@drbretty @BrianKingNeo @LindseyKnake @guisantanna @PlussTrial And how what their CPAP level was 🙈

[Dr Anna Kidman @AnnaKidman3]

@BrianKingNeo @LindseyKnake @guisantanna In ÉCLAT we had some extubation success in a couple of infants 23&24 weeks in first week of life… whilst growth is important, I think these infants have to be approached case by case, individual basis and then look at optimising their post extubation support… it is possible….

[Dr Anna Kidman @AnnaKidman3]

@docfortots @NICU_Musings So well said

[Dr Anna Kidman @AnnaKidman3]

@ivanaculic @NICU_Musings Asking for my learning… is this an indication for a scope?

[Dr Anna Kidman @AnnaKidman3]

Important ‼️

I’m obviously very biased as respiratory care is my flavour of choice but… FANTASTIC start to an exciting series 🫁 👶

[The Incubator Podcast @nicupodcast]

🎙️ Exciting News! 🌟 The Incubator Podcast is thrilled to announce our new mini-series: "Managing Respiratory Distress: Flow and Pressure." Where we discuss the new evidence in the management of respiratory distress in critically ill newborns 🫁

A huge shoutout to @fphcare for their generous sponsorship, making this series possible! 👏
