Statement of Need
Approximately 456,000 or 12% of newborns in the United States are
born at preterm gestation every year. Premature infants are at greater
risk for short and long term complications, including feeding problems,
nutritional deficiencies, infections, respiratory problems, disabilities
and impediments in growth and development. This symposium will
present evidence-based, practice-oriented updates and controversies
in neonatal medicine highlighting neonatal nutrition, PRBC neonatal
transfusion and management of necrotizing enterocolitis and late
onset neonatal sepsis.
Educational Objectives
It is intended that this NYHQ CME activity will lead to improved
patient care. At the conclusion of this symposium, the participant
will be able to:

List the components of ideal evidence-based neonatal care.
Develop unit-based guidelines for neonatal care.
Specify how to institute and monitor RBC transfusion guidelines.
Describe the relationship between RBC transfusion to VLBW
neonates, in the first days after birth, and IVH.
Describe the most recent studies examining the subset of
NEC that follows a RBC transfusion.
Identify the risks of iron imbalance in preterm and term
neonates, and specify the brain processes at risk or adversely
affected in iron deficient neonates.
Specify the appropriate iron doses for preterm and term neonates.
Identify issues with current iron status screening methods.
Describe normal physiology of heart rate variability.
Specify the effects of infection on heart rate characteristics.
Discuss neonatal evidence related to heart rate characteristics,
infection and mortality in preterm infants.
