There is a need for neonatologists in the 🇺🇸, now more than ever!
Interesting data shows that preterm birth rate rose 12% from 2014 to 2022, this trend appears to be due in part to advanced maternal age and increased complications during pregnancy. #neotwitter #medtwitter #nicuverse #nicu #neonatology #prematurity #preemies https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/08/well/family/premature-births-maternal-age.html

Nov 17: Today is World #Prematurity Day! http://www.cute-calendar.com/42050 #WorldPrematurityDay #holiday #event #observance

By sifting through #electronic #health records of moms and babies using a machine-learning #algorithm, #scientists can predict how at-risk #newborns will fare in their first two months of life. The new method allows #physicians to classify, at or before #birth, which #infants are likely to develop complications of #prematurity.

Living in an area with high police presence increases the odds of a premature birth for both Black and white residents. Greater police presence in Black vs white neighborhoods may contribute to the persistent Black-White preterm birth disparity.

My post from #WorldPrematurityDay2022 18/11 was lost in transfer, so here is a repeat. The highest recedential building in #Denmark, the #Lighthouse in #Aarhus lit up in glorious purple to raise awareness of #prematurity.

#Outliers cohort. I was very young when I was born. 1182g, nearly 2 1/2 months premature. The mortality ratio back then with those stats was ~80%. #prematurity

US-born Black Minnesotans who experienced greater segregation, & wider inequalities in education, income, employment, and incarceration were more likely to have #premature or low birthweight babies
Improving birth outcomes requires multisectoral approach
