What a lovely comment- thank you so.much!!!! Really appreciate your support!

Very good vídeo Dr Tala! Thanks a lot. And have you ever made a video about NIRS monitorization? Do you have experience with this in your unit? Thanks a lot.

[@TalaTalksNICU]

Thank you so much!!! We have been working with the NIRS people trying to get access to their pictures and stuff! I promise will be out eventually! Thanks so much still being here- and for your lovely thoughtful comments :)

Another great video!!! Over the last 20 years, it has been great to see how much better hypotension is managed in neonates, we are getting better at not "over treating " hypotension. NIRS and more focused attention to perfusion markers has helped to decrease putting kids on meds based soley on numbers. Loved the breakdown of the myths that were considered law for so long. The HIP trial was a great try to find more answers. Getting IRB approval for that trial had to be "fun" 😂

[@TalaTalksNICU]

You always get to the heart of everything!!!! Completely agree with everything!!!! And yes the IRB! Dr. Barrington sums up the difficulties they had in that trial in his blog (Neo research). He’s brilliant and hysterical and you’d love it!!!

[@laraeb2514]

@TalaTalksNICU oooh, I'm going to look into that blog!! Thank you. The few times I've been involved in the IRB process for much less controversial trials made me question all of my life choices, lol. Keep up the great work +

[@TalaTalksNICU]

@laraeb2514 ha couldn’t agree more!!!! LOL

[@goelenys7869]

Thank you Dr. Tala! We use dopamine, dobutamine, (nor)adrenaline, milrinone. Greetings from Belgium

Awesome video. I’m from Ottawa Canada. We use epi and norepi the most now it seems.

Another terrific topic Fr. Tala!

[@TalaTalksNICU]

Thank you so much! Always love your encouraging comments :)

[@ericamajernik5705]

Great video, I'm studying to take final exams and boards and this info is presented so easy to understand. When will the next videos in the series come out? I live in Ohio, we use Dopamine to start for low BP and then Epi.

[@TalaTalksNICU]

Oh thank you so much for your lovely comment! And Ohio! I’m not sure if we had that on the map yet! I think that’s what a lot of us do- dopa and then epi. We’re releasing one on recent jaundice guidelines and then the BP ones will be out of that! So 3 weeks!!! Thank you!

Excellent, excellent talk, especially, considering post on-call. Salute.

[@TalaTalksNICU]

Thank you so much! But did you notice how Arianna had to edit vasopressor a couple of times cos I’m so used to saying vasopressin!!!! Ha! Thank you for watching and for being here :)

[@bangaloresatish6600]

@@TalaTalksNICU How I wish you were my teacher………. 25 years ago!!! I have just retired from Neonatal work in UK. I fully understand that feeling of “post on-call” to put it mildly, disorienting. I came across your site from a non-medic and have subscribed, just to keep up. Please persevere in the same passion and spirit. You are a gifted teacher.

[@TalaTalksNICU]

That’s an amazing career/ and I’m so impressed you still find it interesting! What made you leave? Obviously you still love it?! Do you miss it? Thanks so much for being here! Yes! Post call! And older I get the harder it is!!!

[@bangaloresatish6600]

@@TalaTalksNICU Yes, the older we get the harder the on-calls become and for some reason lonelier!!! The use of Vasopressors in Neonatal units is not as judicious as in PICU’s and Adult ICU’s. You have astutely picked upon this and explained it so well. While I have upvoted all your videos, this for me was a gem. You have addressed the pathophysiology, which is often overlooked in NICU’s and tailor the treatment, accordingly. Watching your videos gives a great satisfaction and validation of having completed a good job. Self reflection. Beware that we may get out of NICU but NICU doesn’t get out of our system 😂 If you have not done a video on pulmonary graphics, please, please, please consider this despite the onerous job that you do. Also, on the new/future developments in the frontiers of Neonatology. ? AI Lastly, your explanations are crisp, clear and concise. Pitched perfectly for the purpose. Long may your passion last. Remember that you are doing a great service for the parts of the world that lack teaching. This would be a great motivation (cup of coffee) for “post on-call” videos 😬 The very best in everything that you do, so well.

[@TalaTalksNICU]

Good morning!!!! I’m not sure why I’m just seeing this lovely comment now! Thank you thank you thank you so much!!!! Thank you for all of it!!! I’m setting up a pulmonary graphics video in house with a friend of mine who is an amazing respiratory therapist. It’s all logistics! And yes AI!!! We should all be discussing that more- I’ll try to find more of a techy expert!! Couldn’t agree more about calls being harder and lonelier!!!! Now even if I’ve had a few hours of sleep I need a nap! Something about hospital sleep and being more nervous about stuff!!!! Anyway- thank you so so much for all your lovely comments!!
