This presentation will review hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). At the end of the presentation, the attendee will be able to describe the pathophysiology of HIE, and apply one strategy to implement cooling for the treatment of HIE.

Fetal Cardiology Case Reviews will discuss pertinent (emergent) topics for fetal cardiology clinicians and highlight interesting features to aid in learning anatomical differences and the pathophysiology of heart defects. The purpose is to improve the communication amongst the perinatology team and delivery teams thereby decreasing emergency interventions, such as anticipating a need for an atrial balloon septostomy as opposed to a high-risk neonatal delivery leading to an emergent situation, en...

Not every neonatologist may be familiar with the clinical approach and the conceptual understanding of neonatal seizures from the neurologist's perspective. Understanding the neurologist's approach will help facilitate teamwork and optimal neurological outcome for the baby. At the conclusion of the activity, participants will appropriately implement at least one new strategy, technique(s) or intervention(s) in seizure management.

This presentation will address why neonatal point-of-care ultrasound should become the standard of care and give tools on how to build a neonatal point-of-care ultrasound program.

More than half of antibiotic use in hospitals does not follow recommended guidelines for selected conditions. Antibiotic-resistant organisms cause almost 3 million infections and over 35,000 deaths annually in the United States.

Surfactant administration is evolving to less invasive approaches, some of which have yet to be incorporated into daily practice in the United States. This presentation will review the practice and application of less-invasive surfactant administration (LISA).

This lecture will address Placenta Accreta Spectrum (PAS) which remains underdiagnosed with associated significant maternal morbidity and mortality.

The United States’ nationwide maternal mortality ratio is increasing despite efforts to improve maternal safety. The increase disproportionately affects Black, American Indian, and Native Alaskan people despite efforts to improve equity in healthcare.

The field of fetal surgery is evolving quickly. Health professionals should update with recent advances for referral the patients to the fetal center. In addition, this will help with better counseling with this patient population and offering fetal surgery for maximizing the outcomes for these patients.
