This week, on Journal Club we wrap up 2023 with several interesting articles. From the POPART trial's insights into noninvasive surfactant delivery to the controversial use of saline boluses in preterm infants, this episode promises to give you things to think about during the holiday season. As we bid farewell to 2023, join us for a journey through the latest advancements that have challenged and enlightened us. We scrutinize the outcomes of administering oropharyngeal surfactant and examine the physiological effects of normal saline boluses on the tiniest patients. Each segment unveils critical takeaways, urging a reevaluation of established practices and spotlighting the synergy of interdisciplinary collaboration for enhancing neonatal health care.Looking ahead, we're excited to share a glimpse of the upcoming podcast series that will further our mission of education and support for both practitioners and families. From "At the Bench" with its focus on the nitty-gritty of basic science research to the NICU Family Podcast aimed at deciphering medical jargon for parents, we're expanding our network to bring diverse perspectives under one roof. Stay tuned as we recharge during our brief hiatus, and prepare to return with more episodes that promise to inspire, challenge, and evolve the world of neonatology.
