The procedure involves extensive anticoagulation in a sick neonate with underlying disease pathology. In addition, the immature hemostatic system in the neonate adds to the complexity of titrating the necessary anticoagulation. This places the infant at greater risk for life threatening hemorrhage and ...
During extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), a delicate balance is required to titrate systemic anticoagulation to prevent thrombotic complications within the circuit and prevent bleeding in the patient. Despite focused efforts to achieve t...

However, ECMO is a highly invasive and risky procedure with devastating complications such as intracranial hemorrhage (ICH). In this study, we aimed to determine the risk factors for ICH in infants with PPHN.doi:10.1186/s40560-015-0071-xSule Doymaz...
* OAE + ABR: When hospitals implement a 2-stage screening procedure, the first stage of screening is an OAE test. If the baby passing this initial screening, no further testing is needed. Newborns who fail the OAE screening, however, receive ABR screening immediately. In some facilities, ...

Assuming a randomisation procedure for allocating patients to these two groups they should be independent. In an economic analysis alongside a trial, patient-level data will be collected for both the costs and effects. Therefore, for each patient in the trial we will have a two-item vector ...
