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...

Confirmatory testing and clinical care and management are inconsistent for newborn infants at risk for a treatable inborn error of metabolism identified through newborn screening.

With more recent improvements in the survival of extremely preterm infants in the 22-25 weeks range, the optimal approaches to initial respiratory support will be reviewed to minimize gaps that may exist in current knowledge or existing practice.

During this activity, pediatric obesity evaluation and management will be reviewed. Additionally, metabolic and bariatric surgery in the pediatric population will be reviewed.

Renal failure in the NICU is increasingly more common yet research regarding its treatment is less commonly known.  During this presentation, common approaches to renal failure will be reviewed.

Kernicterus and severe hyperbilirubinemia are two conditions that have historically not been well explored from a health disparities standpoint. Lack of awareness of the paradox between hyperbilirubinemia severity and kernicterus disparity have led to adverse health outcomes for black infants in the United States. This activity is designed to educate clinicians on the existence of the disparity and offer reasonable approaches to reducing the health disparity and improving care.

Effective quality improvement projects create measurable improvements in patient outcomes. This presentation will address the ability to successfully design and conduct quality improvement and highlights the importance of demonstrating project value to motivate change in behavior.
