Ha! I'm sure that's not true- but I appreciate the lovely compliments! Comments like yours really eep us going! Are you in med school? Hope you're enjoying your studies!
Great lecture! I do not think it was too long. You have made looking at CSF results easy to understand and when to be concerned for meningitis. Thank you. Boston, Ma
Incredibly important and succinct medical vedios from Dr.Tala,thank you very much for taking your precious time to make these for other medical professionals.
Thank you for making these videos. The way you teach these topics make it easy to understand and you make very interesting points about them too. The visuals you have in your videos are very helpful too ❤
Oh thank you so much Angelica! For watching and for taking the time to write to us. Arianna is all about the visuals- wish I could take credit for that!!!
Thank you SO much! We try to hard to make them interesting- sometimes that’s more difficult because the material can be super dry! We’re so happy you’re finding them helpful and that you’re watching from Pakistan :)
Hi Dr. Tala. Thank you so much for these amazing videos. Fun. Concise& up to date. I'd love to learn more on IUGR and NAS. We have a lot of them lately in the unit. Thanks again. Viewing from Canada:)
Hello!!! Thank you so much for watching- so glad you’re enjoying them!!!! Urgh we’ve been planning both those videos for ages and somehow haven’t gotten around to them! Thanks for the reminder and thanks for being here :)
Hahah! Great question! Honestly- I read a lot- medicine and fiction and non-fiction. So a lot of the books out of view are non medical. We're thinking od doing a video on helpful NICU books though!
Thank you so much Marie! We've written the video on CPAP, we need to film and edit it soon! We have a couple of videos on xrays first, then we're going to get back to respiratory support. Sorry! all very fluid!!!
Hi guys another amazing video and so easy to understand, you have the gift of teaching, thanks again so much for you and your team and all the hard work you do for these videos, loving this series on sepsis and all the info you have so nicely condensed. 😊
Great question Andromeda- I guess the answer is that you need to repeat culture at SOME point if it is positive. When exactly may depend on the antibiotics you're on. So if you're on none- and you think it's a contaminant- you'd repeat before starting antibiotics. If it's positive and you're on a set of antibiotics, you may want to repeat before you add additional antibiotics. If baby is getting better, then maybe you don't want to repeat immediately. Does this make sense?
This is a great plan for a video. Actually, I (Tala) just did a clinical study with a few people on congenital syphilis, so would love to cover some of those results too!!! Thanks for being here!
Hey Dr.Tala, I love your video, I am a respiratory therapist that just started orientation in my hospital's NICU. I was wondering if you could possibly made a future video on respiratory therapist role in the NICU and your expectations for them?
Hello! Congratulations on your new role :) I was chatting to a friend of mine- an RT in the NICU, and I'm trying to convince him to do a video with me covering this. It's a fantastic idea, and so helpful I think!
Hello Dr. Adegoke- so happy you're here! Honestly the three of us don't really watch pediatric youtube channels- let me ask other viewers! Thank you for being here!!
Great question- if the RBCs are elevated then the protein will also go up significantly (1.1 for every 1000 RBCs). Sometimes we see and inflammatory response in the CSF- so even though there isn’t an infection- the whole body has increased proteins. Generally though the younger the neonate, the higher the proteins we accept (even up to 150-200). Hope this is in any way helpful?
Thanks, great video. Another topic suggestion would be neonatal resusitation including moments after a set algorithm. Thanks again. P.s. I'm watching from Toronto Canada.
That is a great suggestion- like the resuscitation and then debriefing? Maybe we should do this separately? Love Toronto- such a great city! Thank you for taking the time to comment :)
This is a great review- if you can get access to it. We also filmed a video on TTN if you want to check it out?publications.aap.org/neoreviews/article-abstract/18/3/e141/88456/Transient-Tachypnea-of-the-Newborn?redirectedFrom=fulltext

Great lecture as always!! Can you kindly make a quick video on IUGR / SGA - symmterical vs asymmetrical and TORCH infection
Yes! Def need to do this soon- IUGR and SGA v straight forward- and really need to cover TORCH infections- such a big part of practice!
Thank you, insightful presentation. From Zambia

Brilliant videos. So easy to understand. I'd love to see one on nCPAP please

OH THANK YOU SO MUCH Dr. Singh. Thank you so much for watching all of these :)
Hello Dr Tala, thanks for teaching ❤❤, just want to know why need to repeat blood culture ASAP if results are positive?
Usually we repeat blood culture after 48h from start of treatment or we decide to change selected antibiotics
Great question Andromeda- I guess the answer is that you need to repeat culture at SOME point if it is positive. When exactly may depend on the antibiotics you're on.
So if you're on none- and you think it's a contaminant- you'd repeat before starting antibiotics.
If it's positive and you're on a set of antibiotics, you may want to repeat before you add additional antibiotics.
If baby is getting better, then maybe you don't want to repeat immediately. Does this make sense?
yes! Really depends on the situation!
Thank you so much 😊
Thank you for watching all of these! Such a loyal viewer!!
Super video as usual Dr.Tala
Thank you so much- we love your support!
Please do a video on herpes screening, sypilis and hep b etc . Some of the labs all mothers get and treatment guidelines
This is a great plan for a video. Actually, I (Tala) just did a clinical study with a few people on congenital syphilis, so would love to cover some of those results too!!! Thanks for being here!

Thanks dr tala very helpful
I have aquestion what if csf cells and sugar normal only elevated protein like 250 what could be the explanation
Great question- if the RBCs are elevated then the protein will also go up significantly (1.1 for every 1000 RBCs).

How can parents of babies with blood sepsis and meningitis caused by E. Coli receive more information to understand this?
Use pubmed as a medical google and search for review articles. Wishing you lots of luck XX
