I work in a small community hospital as an LDRP nurse and we seem to be seeing more and more pregnant women with uncontrolled diabetes. This was so helpful to explain the “why” of a number of issues we see with these babies. I appreciate your ability to convey information in easy to understand terms.

Hello! We haven’t made a C-section video- I’m assuming you meant from a neonatal standpoint! Honestly when OBs are doing a C-section it’s normally to save the baby or save the mama (or better for either for some reason) and so most of the time we have to deal with it!!!!

Hi Cecile- this is a great idea. It's funny- when I was in residency- we had so many issues with osteopenia (and alkaline phosphatase >1000, with poor little babies getting fractures)- now we're all so much better with nutrition, and we have much better choices, that it's much rarer. But it is a very important topic- especially since we're still on a fluid and electrolyte kick!

OMG I wasn't aware insulin can't cross the placenta. I kept thinking it was maternal insulin that accumulated in the child (baby+ mom's insulin maybe had an added action) and needed a day or two to be used up and then the baby would be okay. Thank you for this really informative video!

Thank you so much for the rich and smooth videos you do on this channel. Back in the late 90s while going through my neonatology training at LLUCH , we were instructed to check G.S q 15 minutes in the first 4 hours , especially in mother with poorly controlled blood sugar . i wonder if you can give standard protocol for such situation ? currently i go with q 1/2 hour in the first 4 hours ! thanks
@TalaTalksNICU Жыл бұрын
Hello! So glad you like the videos. So generally the only babies we check for sugars are the ones at risk (SGA, LGA, IDM and premature). Protocols are pretty much set by different hospitals. Generally, the first sugar is checked soon after birth ~1 hr. Even the threshold for hypoglycemia is different in different hospitals (somewhere around < 45). If sugars are normal then they're checked qAC for 12- 24 hrs. If abnormal- then a different pathway followed- we use glucose gel if needed. Does that help?!

Hi Dr Tala Is it possible to explain the pathophysiology of CHI please.
@TalaTalksNICU2 жыл бұрын
Hello!I'm assuming you're referring to congenital hyperinsulinism? (This used to be called nesidioblastosis)- and it's basically a 'tumor' of the islet cells in the pancreas- that continuously over-secret insulin. (So unlike the normal IDM neonate- the hyperinsulism is transient- with CHI- the high insulin levels never go away). Many of these are genetic in origin. Ultimately they are treated with aggressive feeds (if milder), medications and sometimes surgery- where a large part of the pancreas is removed. (We will cover a video on hypoglycemia at some point!) Thanks foe asking this question :)

Dr Tala, when we monitor BSR in an IDM, do we screen for the first 48 hours at hours 0, 2, 4, 6, 12, 24, and 48? Is this the recommendation? We follow this, but sometimes we also follow 2 hourly monitoring (and then relax to 4 hourly blood sugars if they are satisfactory) so I don't know why we have different approaches? Thank you, Dr Tala
@TalaTalksNICU Жыл бұрын
Hello! Excellent question! Each hospital has slightly different protocols- so there really isn’t a standard. Generally sugars are checked before feedings (so we have the lowest possible sugars). So normally this is ~ q 3 hrs. There is so much controversy about which sugar levels are acceptable and what to do about it that I’m guessing every protocol is within standard of care. I wouldn’t be surprised if we all decrease how often we’re checking sugars in asymptomatic neonates in the near future.
