Respiratory management and outcomes in high-risk preterm infants with development of a population outcome dashboard (2023)
Journal Article
Kwok, T. C., Poulter, C., Algarni, S., Szatkowski, L., & Sharkey, D. (2023). Respiratory management and outcomes in high-risk preterm infants with development of a population outcome dashboard. Thorax, 78(12), 1215–1222. https://doi.org/10.1136/thorax-2023-220174

Introduction: Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is associated with adverse long-term respiratory and neurodevelopmental outcomes. No recent studies examined the changing respiratory management and outcomes, particularly severe BPD, across a whole popu...

Impact of postnatal dexamethasone timing on preterm mortality and bronchopulmonary dysplasia: a propensity score analysis (2023)
Journal Article
Kwok, T. C., Szatkowski, L., & Sharkey, D. (in press). Impact of postnatal dexamethasone timing on preterm mortality and bronchopulmonary dysplasia: a propensity score analysis. European Respiratory Journal, https://doi.org/10.1183/13993003.00825-2023

Introduction Postnatal dexamethasone (PND) is used in high-risk preterm infants after the first week of life to facilitate extubation and prevent bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) but the optimal treatment timing remains unclear. Objective Explore... Read More about Impact of postnatal dexamethasone timing on preterm mortality and bronchopulmonary dysplasia: a propensity score analysis.

Forehead monitoring of heart rate in neonatal intensive care (2023)
Journal Article
Stockwell, S. J., Kwok, T. C., Morgan, S. P., Sharkey, D., & Hayes-Gill, B. R. (2023). Forehead monitoring of heart rate in neonatal intensive care. Frontiers in Physiology, 14, Article 1127419. https://doi.org/10.3389/fphys.2023.1127419

Heart rate is an extremely important physiological parameter to measure in critically unwell infants, as it is the main physiological marker that changes in response to a change in infant condition. Heart rate is routinely measured peripherally on a... Read More about Forehead monitoring of heart rate in neonatal intensive care.

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia prediction models: a systematic review and meta-analysis with validation (2023)
Journal Article
Kwok, T. C., Batey, N., Luu, K. L., Prayle, A., & Sharkey, D. (2023). Bronchopulmonary dysplasia prediction models: a systematic review and meta-analysis with validation. Pediatric Research, 94, 43–54. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41390-022-02451-8

Abstract: Prediction models could identify infants at the greatest risk of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) and allow targeted preventative strategies. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis with external validation of identified models....
