Neonates and infants have been referred to as ‘therapeutic orphans’ due to the overall scarcity of treatments that have been developed and tailored to their needs. However, in recent years there have been increased efforts by researchers and regulatory bodies to focus on the provision of drugs, devices, and treatment modalities tailored for pediatric use. This trend is also being witnessed in neonatology, but a lot more needs to be done.
This Research Topic aims to capture the latest research, reviews, and scientific opinion on new drugs, devices, diagnostics, monitoring modalities, and therapeutic models in neonatology. This includes specific products like drugs and medical devices used in the ‘detection, monitoring or management of various neonatal conditions’ such as;
- Bronchopulmonary dysplasia
- Neonatal seizures
- Malabsorption and poor growth
- Necrotizing enterocolitis
- Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy
- Retinopathy of prematurity
- Pediatric short bowel syndrome
- Respiratory distress syndrome
- Congenital hyperinsulinism
- Neonatal infections and Sepsis
The above is not an all-exhaustive list and we would welcome relevant manuscripts on any aspect of neonatal care which focusses on recent advancements in monitoring, diagnostics and therapeutics in neonatal care. We welcome the following manuscript types Original Research including clinical trials, Reviews, Brief Research Report, Commentary, Opinion, Perspective, Study Protocol, Systematic Review, Technology and Code.
