Abstract
The Crescent dual lumen right atrial (RA) cannula has recently been introduced for the support of pediatric patients in need of venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV ECMO) support. We present the first pediatric case series illustrating utility of the Crescent RA cannula in the pediatric patient population at a single institution over a 10 month period. From December 2021 to August 2022, six pediatric patients were adequately supported on seven VV ECMO runs at our institution with the Crescent RA cannula. ECMO cannulation, circuit design, anticoagulation management, ECMO circuit pressures, flow rates, and recirculation were similar to our standard of care for VV ECMO. The Crescent RA cannula can be used safely and effectively to provide adequate support for pediatric patients requiring VV ECMO.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In pediatric and neonatal populations, the carotid artery is commonly cannulated for venoarterial (VA) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). The decision to ligate (carotid artery ligation [CAL]) versus reconstruct (carotid artery reconstruction [CAR]) the artery at decannulation remains controversial as long-term neurologic outcomes remain unknown. The objective of this study was to summarize current literature on clinical outcomes following CAL and CAR after Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (VA-ECMO). METHODS PubMed (MEDLINE), Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane databases were searched using keywords from January 1950 to October 2020. Studies examining clinical outcomes following CAL and CAR for VA-ECMO in patients <18 y of age were included. Prospective and retrospective cohort studies, case series, case-control studies, and case reports were included. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines were performed independently by two reviewers. Assessment of risk of bias was performed. RESULTS Eighty studies were included and classified into four categories: noncomparative clinical outcomes after CAL (n = 23, 28.8%), noncomparative clinical outcomes after CAR (n = 12, 15.0%), comparative clinical outcomes after CAL and/or CAR (n = 28, 35.0%), and case reports of clinical outcomes after CAL and/or CAR (n = 17, 21.3%). Follow-up ranged from 0 to 11 y. CAR patency rates ranged from 44 to 100%. There was no substantial evidence supporting an association between CAL versus CAR and short-term neurologic outcomes. CONCLUSIONS Studies evaluating outcomes after CAL versus CAR for VA-ECMO are heterogeneous with limited generalizability. Further studies are needed to evaluate long-term consequences of CAL versus CAR, especially as the first survivors of pediatric/neonatal ECMO approach an age of increased risk of carotid stenosis and stroke.

Abstract
Persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn, or PPHN, represents a challenging condition associated with high morbidity and mortality. Management is complicated by complex pathophysiology and limited neonatal specific evidence-based literature, leading to a lack of universal contemporary clinical guidelines for the care of these patients. To address this need and to provide consistent high-quality clinical care for this challenging population in our neonatal intensive care unit, we sought to develop a comprehensive clinical guideline for the acute stabilization and management of neonates with PPHN. Utilizing cross-disciplinary expertise and incorporating an extensive literature search to guide best practice, we present an approachable, pragmatic, and clinically relevant guide for the bedside management of acute PPHN. KEY POINTS: · PPHN is associated with several unique diagnoses; the associated pathophysiology is different for each unique diagnosis.. · PPHN is a challenging, dynamic, and labile process for which optimal care requires frequent reassessment.. · Key management goals are adequate tissue oxygen delivery, avoiding harm..

Abstract
Importance Preterm infants with varying degrees of anemia have different tissue oxygen saturation responses to red blood cell (RBC) transfusion, and low cerebral saturation may be associated with adverse outcomes. Objective To determine whether RBC transfusion in preterm infants is associated with increases in cerebral and mesenteric tissue saturation (Csat and Msat, respectively) or decreases in cerebral and mesenteric fractional tissue oxygen extraction (cFTOE and mFTOE, respectively) and whether associations vary based on degree of anemia, and to investigate the association of Csat with death or neurodevelopmental impairment (NDI) at 22 to 26 months corrected age. Design, Setting, and Participants This was a prospective observational secondary study conducted among a subset of infants between August 2015 and April 2017 in the Transfusion of Prematures (TOP) multicenter randomized clinical trial at 16 neonatal intensive care units of the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development Neonatal Research Network. Preterm neonates with gestational age 22 to 28 weeks and birth weight 1000 g or less were randomized to higher or lower hemoglobin thresholds for transfusion. Data were analyzed between October 2020 and May 2022. Interventions Near-infrared spectroscopy monitoring of Csat and Msat. Main Outcomes and Measures Primary outcomes were changes in Csat, Msat, cFTOE, and mFTOE after transfusion between hemoglobin threshold groups, adjusting for age at transfusion, gestational age, birth weight stratum, and center. Secondary outcome at 22 to 26 months was death or NDI defined as cognitive delay (Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development-III score <85), cerebral palsy with Gross Motor Function Classification System level II or greater, or severe vision or hearing impairment. Results A total of 179 infants (45 [44.6%] male) with mean (SD) gestational age 25.9 (1.5) weeks were enrolled, and valid data were captured from 101 infants during 237 transfusion events. Transfusion was associated with a significant increase in mean Csat of 4.8% (95% CI, 2.7%-6.9%) in the lower-hemoglobin threshold group compared to 2.7% (95% CI, 1.2%-4.2%) in the higher-hemoglobin threshold group, while mean Msat increased 6.7% (95% CI, 2.4%-11.0%) vs 5.6% (95% CI, 2.7%-8.5%). Mean cFTOE and mFTOE decreased in both groups to a similar extent. There was no significant change in peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) in either group (0.2% vs -0.2%). NDI or death occurred in 36 infants (37%). Number of transfusions with mean pretransfusion Csat less than 50% was associated with NDI or death (odds ratio, 2.41; 95% CI, 1.08-5.41; P = .03). Conclusions and Relevance In this secondary study of the TOP randomized clinical trial, Csat and Msat were increased after transfusion despite no change in SpO2. Lower pretransfusion Csat may be associated with adverse outcomes, supporting further investigation of targeted tissue saturation monitoring in preterm infants with anemia. Trial Registration ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01702805.

Abstract
Early skin-to-skin contact (SSC), beginning in the delivery room, provides myriad health benefits for mother and baby. Early SSC in the delivery room is the standard of care for healthy neonates following both vaginal and cesarean delivery. However, there is little published evidence on the safety of this practice in infants with congenital anomalies requiring immediate postnatal evaluation, including critical congenital heart disease (CCHD). Currently, the standard practice following delivery of infants with CCHD in many delivery centers has been immediate separation of mother and baby for neonatal stabilization and transfer to a different hospital unit or a different hospital altogether. However, most neonates with prenatally diagnosed congenital heart disease, even those with ductal-dependent lesions, are clinically stable in the immediate newborn period. Therefore, we sought to increase the percentage of newborns with prenatally diagnosed CCHD who are born in our regional level II-III delivery hospitals who receive mother-baby SSC in the delivery room. Using quality improvement methodology, through a series of Plan-Do-Study-Act cycles we successfully increased mother-baby skin-to-skin contact in the delivery room for eligible cardiac patients born across our city-wide delivery hospitals from a baseline 15% to greater than 50%.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants are at risk for end-organ hypoxia and ischemia. Regional tissue oxygenation of the brain and gut as monitored with near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) may change with postnatal age, but normal ranges are not well defined. METHODS A prospective study of ELBW preterm infants utilized NIRS monitoring to assess changes in cerebral and mesenteric saturation (Csat and Msat) over the first week after birth. This secondary study of a multicenter trial comparing hemoglobin transfusion thresholds assessed cerebral and mesenteric fractional tissue oxygen extraction (cFTOE and mFTOE) and relationships with perinatal variables. RESULTS In 124 infants, both Csat and Msat declined over the first week, with a corresponding increase in oxygen extraction. With lower gestational age, lower birth weight, and 5-min Apgar score ≤5, there was a greater increase in oxygen extraction in the brain compared to the gut. Infants managed with a lower hemoglobin transfusion threshold receiving ≥2 transfusions in the first week had the lowest Csat and highest cFTOE (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION Brain oxygen extraction preferentially increased in more immature and anemic preterm infants. NIRS monitoring may enhance understanding of cerebral and mesenteric oxygenation patterns and inform future protective strategies in the preterm ELBW population. IMPACT Simultaneous monitoring of cerebral and mesenteric tissue saturation demonstrates the balance of oxygenation between preterm brain and gut and may inform protective strategies. Over the first week, oxygen saturation of the brain and gut declines as oxygen extraction increases. A low hemoglobin transfusion threshold is associated with lower cerebral saturation and higher cerebral oxygen extraction compared to a high hemoglobin transfusion threshold, although this did not translate into clinically relevant differences in the TOP trial primary outcome. Greater oxygen extraction by the brain compared to the gut occurs with lower gestational age, lower birth weight, and 5-min Apgar score ≤5.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Our hypothesis was that among infants with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), venoarterial (VA), compared to venovenous (VV), extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is associated with an increased risk of mortality or intracranial hemorrhage (ICH). DESIGN/METHODS Retrospective cohort analysis of infants in the Children's Hospitals Neonatal Database from 2010 to 2016 with moderate or severe HIE, gestational age ≥36 weeks, and ECMO initiation <7 days of age. The primary outcome was mortality or ICH. RESULTS Severe HIE was more common in the VA ECMO group (n = 57), compared to the VV ECMO group (n = 53) (47.4% vs. 26.4%, P = 0.02). VA ECMO was associated with a significantly higher risk of death or ICH [57.9% vs. 34.0%, aOR 2.39 (1.08-5.28)] and mortality [31.6% vs. 11.3%, aOR 3.06 (1.08-8.68)], after adjusting for HIE severity. CONCLUSIONS In HIE, VA ECMO was associated with a higher incidence of mortality or ICH. VV ECMO may be beneficial in this population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Describe inpatient pulmonary hypertension (PH) treatment and factors associated with therapy at discharge in a multicenter cohort of infants with CDH. METHODS Six years linked records from Children's Hospitals Neonatal Database and Pediatric Health Information System were used to describe associations between prenatal/perinatal factors, clinical outcomes, echocardiographic findings and PH medications (PHM), during hospitalization and at discharge. RESULTS Of 1106 CDH infants from 23 centers, 62.8% of infants received PHM, and 11.6% of survivors were discharged on PHM. Survivors discharged on PHM more frequently had intrathoracic liver, small for gestational age, and low 5 min APGARs compared with those discharged without PHM (p < 0.0001). Nearly one-third of infants discharged without PHM had PH on last inpatient echo. CONCLUSIONS PH medication use is common in CDH. Identification of infants at risk for persistent PH may impact ongoing management. Post-discharge follow-up of all CDH infants with echocardiographic evidence of PH is warranted.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We pursued the use of regional analgesia (RA) to minimize the use of postoperative opioids. Our aim was to increase the use of postoperative RA for eligible surgical procedures in the NICU from 0% to 80% by June 30, 2019. METHODS A multidisciplinary team determined the eligibility criteria, developed an extensive process map, implemented comprehensive education, and a structured process for communication of postoperative pain management plans. Daily pain team rounds provided an opportunity for collaborative comanagement. An additional 30 minutes for catheter placement was added in operating room (OR) scheduling so that it would not affect the surgeon OR time. RESULTS There were 21 eligible surgeries in the baseline period and 34 in the intervention period. In total, 30 of 34 infants in eligible surgeries (88%) received RA. The average total opioid exposure in intravenous morphine milligram equivalents decreased from 5.0 to 1.1 mg/kg in the intervention group. The average time to extubation was 45 hours in the baseline period and 19.9 hours in the intervention group. After interventions, 75% of infants were extubated in the OR, as compared with 10.5% in the baseline period. No difference was seen in postoperative pain scores or postoperative hypothermia between the baseline and intervention groups. CONCLUSIONS We used quality improvement methodology to develop a structured RA program. We demonstrated a significant reduction in opioid requirements and need for mechanical ventilation postoperatively for those infants who received RA. Our findings support safe and effective use of RA, and provide a framework for implementation of a similar program.
