Article Abstract
Creation of a small baby program requires special resources and multidisciplinary engagement. Such a program has the potential to improve patient care, parent and staff satisfaction, collaboration and communication. We have described benefits, challenges, and practical approaches to creating and maintaining a small baby program that could be a model for the development of special programs for other sub-populations within in the NICU.

Perinatal Institute, Division of Neonatology and Pulmonary Biology, Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center, Cincinnati, Ohio, USA.
Objective: To wean respiratory support, preterm infants with severe respiratory failure are often administered systemic corticosteroids. We sought to evaluate if postnatal age or clinical characteristics predicted death or tracheostomy following systemic dexamethasone in evolving bronchopulmonary dysplasia.
Study Design: We performed a retrospective study of infants born at ≤ 30 weeks' gestational age cared for at a Level IV referral center from 2009 to 2019 who received a complete course of systemic dexamethasone beyond 4 weeks of age for the indication of preventing death and/or liberating from positive pressure ventilation.

Size and Growth After NICU Discharge in Extremely Low-Birth-Weight or Extremely Preterm Infants.
Pediatrics
September 2025
Vermont Oxford Network, Burlington, Vermont.
Objective: Among extremely low-birth-weight (ELBW; <1000 g) or extremely preterm (EPT; <28 + 0 weeks) infants, we aimed to describe size indicators at 18 to 24 months of corrected age and growth from neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) discharge to follow-up and to examine infant and maternal determinants of those outcomes.
Methods: We studied 7301 ELBW/EPT children from 77 Vermont Oxford Network member hospitals. Continuous size indicators at 18 to 24 months were z scores of weight, length, head circumference, and body mass index based on World Health Organization standards.
