Journal ArticleDOI
Moderate hypothermia in neonatal encephalopathy: efficacy outcomes.
Dorothea J. Eicher,Carol L. Wagner,Lakshmi P. Katikaneni,Thomas C. Hulsey,W. Thomas Bass,David A. Kaufman,Michael J. Horgan,Sheila Languani,Jatinder Bhatia,Lawrence M. Givelichian,Koravangatta Sankaran,Jerome Y. Yager +11 more
TL;DR: Although these results need to be validated in a large clinical trial, this pilot trial provides important data for clinical trial design of hypothermia treatment in neonatal hypoxic-ischemic injury.
Journal ArticleDOI
Serum cytokines in a clinical trial of hypothermia for neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy.
Dorothea Jenkins,Laura Grace Rollins,Jessica K. Perkel,Carol L. Wagner,Lakshmi P. Katikaneni,W. Thomas Bass,David A. Kaufman,Michael J. Horgan,Sheela Languani,Lawrence M. Givelichian,Koravangattu Sankaran,Jerome Y. Yager,Renee H Martin +12 more
TL;DR: Modulation of serum cytokines after HI injury may be another mechanism of improved outcomes in neonates treated with induced hypothermia, and uniform down modulation of IL-6, IL-8, and IL-10 from their peak levels at 24 hours to their nadir at 36 hours was observed.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comparative effectiveness study of continuous positive airway pressure-related skin breakdown when using different nasal interfaces in the extremely low birth weight neonate.
Katherine M. Newnam,Jacqueline M. McGrath,Jeanne Salyer,Tracy Estes,Nancy Jallo,W. Thomas Bass +5 more
TL;DR: Reduced nasal injury was demonstrated using rotating mask/prong nasal interfaces and future best practices must include precise selection of device size, developmental and CPAP device positioning with focused skin assessment including rapid intervention for skin injury.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Integrative Review of Skin Breakdown in the Preterm Infant Associated with Nasal Continuous Positive Airway Pressure
Katherine M. Newnam,Jacqueline M. McGrath,Tracy Estes,Nancy Jallo,Jeanne Salyer,W. Thomas Bass +5 more
TL;DR: Identifying strategies to reduce skin breakdown will support noninvasive treatment success, reduce reintubation rates, reduce sepsis, reduce patient discomfort, and improve developmental outcomes during NCPAP use.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultrasonographic differential diagnosis and neurodevelopmental outcome of cerebral white matter lesions in premature infants.
W. Thomas Bass,Martha A Jones,Larry E White,Thomas R. Montgomery,Frank Aiello,M. Gary Karlowicz +5 more
TL;DR: The majority of white matter lesions can be differentiated as either PHVI or PVL by ultrasonographic criteria, with coexisting features in only 11% of patients.
