Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim was to assess health care providers' (HCPs) visual attention (VA) by using eye-tracking glasses during a simulated neonatal intubation. METHODS HCPs from three pediatric and neonatal departments (Feldkirch and Vienna, Austria, and Edmonton, Canada) completed a simulated neonatal intubation scenario while wearing eye-tracking glasses (Tobii Pro Glasses 2®, Tobii, Stockholm, Sweden) to record their VA. Main outcomes included duration of intubation, success rate, and VA. We further compared orotracheal and nasotracheal intubations. RESULTS 30 participants were included. 50% completed the intubation within 30 s (M = 35.40, SD = 16.01). Mostly nasotracheal intubations exceeded the limit. Experience was an important factor in reducing intubation time. VA differed between more and less experienced HCPs as well as between orotracheal and nasotracheal intubations. Participants also focused on different areas of interest (AOIs) depending on the intubator's experience. More experience was associated with a higher situational awareness (SA) and fewer distractions, which, however, did not transfer to significantly better intubation performance. CONCLUSION Half of the intubations exceeded the recommended time limit. Differences in intubation duration depending on type of intubation were revealed. VA differed between HCPs with different levels of experience and depended on duration and type of intubation. IMPACT Simulated neonatal intubation duration differs between orotracheal and nasotracheal intubation. Visual attention during simulated neonatal intubation shows differences depending on intubation duration, intubator experience, type of intubation, and level of distraction. Intubator experience is a vital parameter for reducing intubation duration and improving intubator focus on task-relevant stimuli.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Moving an ICU to a new location is a challenge. The objective of this study was to use in situ simulation to identify potential problems and solutions with the new environment before commencing patient care. DESIGN Planned, observational video-recorded simulation study using four scenarios: delivery room management of term-neonate; delivery room management of extremely low-birth-weight infant; management and transfer of an infant with respiratory syncytial virus bronchiolitis and apnea; and management and transfer of an adolescent with septic shock. SETTING Academic tertiary neonatal and combined neonatal ICU/PICU. PARTICIPANTS Sixteen volunteers (eight physicians, eight nurses). INTERVENTIONS Standardized briefing introduction, with before versus after survey of thoughts about each scenario, and after 8 weeks, debriefing at least 60 minutes and additional video recording. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS A total of 91 potential problem areas were identified and included issues related to technical aspects ( n = 29), infrastructure ( n = 27), administration ( n = 19), and structure ( n = 16). Fifty-three (58%) of these potential issues could be resolved before the move, including: 15 of 29 technical, 15 of 27 infrastructure, nine of 19 administration, and 14 of 16 structural. The video analysis revealed an additional 13 problem areas (six technical, three infrastructure, two administration, and two structural). Participants felt more confident 8 weeks after the simulations (χ 2 = 12.125; p < 0.002). All 16 participants confirmed the usefulness of the in situ simulation, the majority wanted further introductions to the new ward ( n = 13) and noted a positive impact of the changes on the new ward ( n = 12). CONCLUSIONS In situ simulation before moving into a new facility identifies numerousness potential problem areas. Survey shows that providers feel better prepared and are more confident. Video recording reveals additional difficulties not addressed in conventional verbal debriefing.

Abstract
Many factors determine the performance and success of delivery room management of newborn babies. Improving the quality of care in this challenging surrounding has an important impact on patient safety and on perinatal morbidity and mortality. Video recording (VR) offers the advantage to record and store work as done rather than work as recalled. It provides information about adherence to algorithms and guidelines, and technical, cognitive and behavioural skills. VR is feasible for education and training, improves team performance and results of research led to changes of international guidelines. However, studies thus far have not provided data regarding whether delivery room video recording affects long-term team performance or clinical outcomes. Privacy is a concern because data can be stored and individuals can be identified. We describe the current state of clinical practice in high- and low-resource settings, discuss ethical and medical-legal issues and give recommendations for implementation with the aim of improving the quality of care and outcome of vulnerable babies. IMPACT: VR improves performance by health caregivers providing neonatal resuscitation, teaching and research related to delivery room management, both in high as well low resource settings. VR enables information about adherence to guidelines, technical, behavioural and communication skills within the resuscitation team. VR has ethical and medical-legal implications for healthcare, especially recommendations for implementation of VR in routine clinical care in the delivery room. VR will increase the awareness that short- and long-term outcomes of babies depend on the quality of care in the delivery room.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Precursors of peptide hormones undergo posttranslational modifications within the trans-Golgi network (TGN). Dysfunction of proteins involved at different steps of this process cause several complex syndromes affecting the central nervous system (CNS). We aimed to clarify the genetic cause in a group of patients characterized by hypopituitarism in combination with brain atrophy, thin corpus callosum, severe developmental delay, visual impairment, and epilepsy. METHODS Whole exome sequencing was performed in seven individuals of six unrelated families with these features. Postmortem histopathological and HID1 expression analysis of brain tissue and pituitary gland were conducted in one patient. Functional consequences of the homozygous HID1 variant p.R433W were investigated by Seahorse XF Assay in fibroblasts of two patients. RESULTS Bi-allelic variants in the gene HID1 domain-containing protein 1 (HID1) were identified in all patients. Postmortem examination confirmed cerebral atrophy with enlarged lateral ventricles. Markedly reduced expression of pituitary hormones was found in pituitary gland tissue. Colocalization of HID1 protein with the TGN was not altered in fibroblasts of patients compared to controls, while the extracellular acidification rate upon stimulation with potassium chloride was significantly reduced in patient fibroblasts compared to controls. INTERPRETATION Our findings indicate that mutations in HID1 cause an early infantile encephalopathy with hypopituitarism as the leading presentation, and expand the list of syndromic CNS diseases caused by interference of TGN function.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to assess the utility of tissue Doppler echocardiography in the setting of repaired transposition of the great arteries when the right ventricle (RV) functions as the systemic ventricle. BACKGROUND Myocardial acceleration during isovolumic contraction, "isovolumic myocardial acceleration" (IVA), has been validated as a sensitive non-invasive method of assessing RV contractility. Although traditional indexes may be less valid for the abnormal RV, the relative insensitivity of IVA to an abnormal load makes it a potentially powerful clinical tool for the assessment of RV disease. METHODS We examined 55 controls and 80 patients (mean age 22 years) with transposition, who had undergone atrial repair at age 8 (0.3 to 72) months. A subgroup of 12 underwent cardiac catheterization. The RV systolic function was derived by analysis of pressure-volume relationships and IVA both at rest and during dobutamine stress. In all 80, myocardial velocities were sampled in the RV free wall. RESULTS During dobutamine (10 microg/kg/min for 10 min), the increase of IVA mirrored the increase in end-systolic elastance (r = 0.69, p < 0.02). In the group as a whole, IVA was reduced compared with the subpulmonary RV and the systemic left ventricle of controls. There was abnormal wall motion in 44 patients, which was associated with reduced IVA. Diastolic myocardial velocities were also abnormal but unrelated to the presence of wall motion abnormalities. CONCLUSIONS The IVA can accurately assess changes in RV contractile function in patients with an RV as the systemic ventricle. Global long-axis RV function is reduced in patients with transposition, and this is associated with abnormal regional function.
