© 2018 A baby's gestational age determines whether or not they are premature, which helps clinicians decide on suitable post-natal treatment. The most accurate dating methods use Ultrasound Scan (USS) machines, but these are expensive, require traine...

Restricted visiting reduces nosocomial viral respiratory tract infections in high-risk neonates (2018)
Journal Article
Szatkowski, L., McClaughry, R., Clarkson, M., & Sharkey, D. (2019). Restricted visiting reduces nosocomial viral respiratory tract infections in high-risk neonates. European Respiratory Journal, 53(3), Article 1801874. https://doi.org/10.1183/13993003.01874-2018

Restricting visitors on the neonatal intensive care unit to parents only during a worldwide pandemic resulted in a 39% reduction in nosocomial viral respiratory tract infections in neonatal patients. These findings need validating in a prospective tr... Read More about Restricted visiting reduces nosocomial viral respiratory tract infections in high-risk neonates.

The development of a clinical interface for a novel newborn resuscitation device; a Human Factors approach to understand cognitive user requirements (2018)
Working Paper
Pickup, L., Lang, A., Shipley, L., Henry, C., Carpenter, J., McCartney, D., …Sharkey, D. The development of a clinical interface for a novel newborn resuscitation device; a Human Factors approach to understand cognitive user requirements

Background: A novel medical device has been developed to address an unmet need of standardizing and facilitating heart rate recording during neonatal resuscitation. In a time-critical emergency resuscitation, where failure can mean death of an in...

Early life incidence of gastrointestinal and respiratory infections in children with gastroschisis: a cohort study (2018)
Journal Article
Bannister, J., Szatkowski, L., Sharkey, D., Tan, S., Fiaschi, L., & Ban, L. (2018). Early life incidence of gastrointestinal and respiratory infections in children with gastroschisis: a cohort study. Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, 67(5), 580–585. https://doi.org/10.1097/MPG.0000000000002045

Objectives: Survival in infants with gastroschisis is increasing although little is known about early childhood morbidity. In the context of a hypothesised link between the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and immune function, this study explores rates of...
