elizabethwang+FollowCaffeine Isn’t the Magic Ticket for PreemiesTurns out, giving preemie babies extra caffeine doesn’t actually get them home from the hospital any faster! A big JAMA study found that while caffeine helps these little ones stop having apnea sooner, it doesn’t shorten their hospital stay. Docs might want to rethink the whole ‘more caffeine = quicker discharge’ idea. Feeding readiness is just as key for getting those tiny patients home. Interesting twist for anyone following NICU care! #PreemieCare #NICU #CaffeineStudy #ParentingNews #MedicalResearch #Health70Share
Sarah Bennett+FollowAir Pollution’s Secret Impact on NewbornsDid you know where you live could impact your baby’s first days? New research found that moms exposed to high air pollution, especially nitrogen dioxide from cars and factories, are way more likely to have newborns needing intensive care. Babies exposed in the last month of pregnancy had a 30% higher risk of NICU admission! And it’s not just about location—season and income matter too. Cleaner air isn’t just about blue skies; it’s about giving every baby a fighting chance from day one. #AirPollution #NeonatalHealth #NICU #EnvironmentalJustice #CleanAir #Health90Share
