Review Meta Analysis
Ventilation devices for neonatal resuscitation at birth: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Initial management of inadequate adaptation to extrauterine life relies on non-invasive respiratory support. Two types of devices are available: fixed pressure devices (FPD; T-pieces or ventilators) and hand driven pressure devices (HDPD; self- or flow-inflating bags). This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to compare clinical outcomes after neonatal resuscitation according to device type. ⋯ Resuscitation at birth with FPD improves respiratory transition and decreases BPD with a very low to moderate certainty of evidence. There is suggestion of decreases in mortality and cPVL. Further studies are still needed to confirm those results.

Growth of machine learning (ML) in healthcare has increased potential for observational data to guide clinical practice systematically. This can create self-fulfilling prophecies (SFPs), which arise when prediction of an outcome increases the chance that the outcome occurs. ⋯ There is a need for broad recognition of SFPs as ML is increasingly applied in resuscitation science and across medicine. Acknowledging this challenge is crucial to inform research and practice that can transform ML from a tool that risks obfuscating and compounding SFPs into one that sheds light on and mitigates SFPs.
