Hello Friends 👋
On this week's episode of Journal Club, we review a couple of articles dealing with hyperbilirubinemia to top off the discussion we had two weeks ago after the updated AAP guidance was published. We also look at numerous interesting topics. Should BPD patients attend daycare, at the risk of catching more pulmonary infections? Are semi upright swings in the NICU safe? We also have an interesting conversation about the use of supraglottic airway instead of facemask for neonatal resuscitation. And much more. Thank you once again for supporting our work and for being a loyal member of our community. Best, Ben.
