Hello Friends 👋
We have an exciting episode of Journal Club scheduled for you this week. Daphna and I are eager to review the two-year outcomes of the PlaNeT2 MATISSE trial. If you recall, this trial published in NEJM (2019) showed that infants randomly assigned to receive platelet transfusions at a platelet-count threshold of 50,000 per cubic millimeter had a significantly higher rate of death or major bleeding within 28 days after randomization than those who received platelet transfusions at a platelet-count threshold of 25,000 per cubic millimeter. So we were eager to see the outcomes at 2 years CA. We also review studies looking at hindmilk in infants with suboptimal growth, a survey of NEC pain management in Europe and so much more. We hope you enjoy listening to this episode. Have a good sunday!
