Neonatal Hypoglycaemia Explained: When to Screen and How to Treat (video) ?
A 90-minute-old, asymptomatic baby reads 1.9 mmol/L — and three clinicians cite three different guidelines, all correct. This deep-dive unpacks why neonatal hypoglycaemia has no single validated number, who to screen, how to treat progressively, and why the thresholds diverge. Treat the baby, not the number.
Karyotype, Microarray, Exome or Genome : Newborn Genetics Explained
Karyotype, microarray, panel, exome or genome — each genetic test looks at a different scale and each has a blind spot. In this discussion, our experts break down what every test actually sees, where it falls short, and how to choose the right one for a sick newborn.
Genetic Testing in the Neonate: A practical Framework
A baby is born dysmorphic and the team asks: does this need a genetic test, and which one? Here is the diagnostic pathway from cot-side assessment to genome sequencing — and how to choose well.
