This book analyzes the transformation of newborn screening (NBS), examining its impact on parenting, policy making, and critical issues in health and medicine. It explores how diagnostic procedures affect parents' encounters with disease, specifically addressing parenting in the shadow of conditions like Cystic Fibrosis, and the relationship between parents and healthcare professionals.
A comprehensive medical textbook or lecture notes focused on the diagnosis and management of conditions affecting newborns, likely prepared for the 2024-2025 academic period.
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) in newborns is a critical condition requiring early and accurate detection. This work presents an explainable multi-view video-based deep learning approach to predict and classify the severity of PH in a cohort of 270 newborns using echocardiograms. The model showed strong performance (e.g., F1-score of 0.84 for severity prediction via cross-validation) and uses saliency maps to confirm focus on clinically relevant cardiac structures, offering the first automated assessment method for PH in this population.
A comprehensive review book covering essential concepts and subject matter in Pediatrics and Neonatology, designed for medical students and practitioners.
Detailed clinical notes covering crucial topics in neonatology, including the management and preparation of blood products for exchange transfusion in Rh and ABO incompatibility, and the diagnosis, differential diagnosis, and management of Meconium Ileus in newborns, emphasizing its association with Cystic Fibrosis.
Trainer's handbook providing detailed instructions and background information for training units 10-12, focusing on essential clinical communication skills in German medicine, specifically patient history (Anamnese), physical examination, and diagnostic procedures/diagnosis discussion.
