    Abstract Nasal or noninvaisve intermittent positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) refers to well-established noninvasive respiratory support strategies combining a continuous distending pressure with intermittent pressure increases. Uncertainty remains regarding the benefits provided by the various devices and techniques used to generate NIPPV. Our included meta-analyses of trials comparing NIPPV with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in preterm infants demonstrate that both primary and postextubation NIPPV are superior to CPAP to prevent respiratory failure leading to additional ventilatory support. This short-term benefit is associated with a reduction in bronchopulmonary dysplasia, but not with mortality. Benefits are greatest when ventilator-generated, synchronized NIPPV is used.

    Abstract Despite advances in neonatal intensive care, more than half of surviving infants born extremely preterm (EP; < 28 weeks' gestation) develop bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). Prevention of BPD is critical because of its associated mortality and morbidity, including adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes and respiratory health in later childhood and beyond. The respiratory care of EP infants begins before birth, then continues in the delivery room and throughout the primary hospitalization. This chapter will review the evidence for interventions after birth that might improve outcomes for infants born EP, including the timing of umbilical cord clamping, strategies to avoid or minimize exposure to mechanical ventilation, modes of mechanical ventilation and non-invasive respiratory support, oxygen saturation targets, postnatal corticosteroids and other adjunct therapies.

    Abstract Introduction: Australia has experienced sustained reductions in hepatitis C testing and treatment and may miss its 2030 elimination targets. Addressing gaps in community-based hepatitis C prescribing in priority settings that did not have, or did not prioritise, hepatitis C testing and treatment care pathways is critical.
    Methods: The Tasmanian Eliminate Hepatitis C Australia Outreach Project delivered a nurse-led outreach model of care servicing hepatitis C priority populations in the community through the Tasmanian Statewide Sexual Health Service, supported by the Eliminating Hepatitis C Australia partnership. Settings included alcohol and other drug services, needle and syringe programs and mental health services. The project provided clients with clinical care across the hepatitis C cascade of care, including testing, treatment, and post-treatment support and hepatitis C education for staff.
    Results: Between July 2020 and July 2022, a total of 43 sites were visited by one Clinical Nurse Consultant. There was a total of 695 interactions with clients across 219 days of service delivery by the Clinical Nurse Consultant. A total of 383 clients were tested for hepatitis C (antibody, RNA, or both). A total of 75 clients were diagnosed with hepatitis C RNA, of which 95% (71/75) commenced treatment, 83% (62/75) completed treatment and 52% (39/75) received a negative hepatitis C RNA test at least 12 weeks after treatment completion.
    Conclusions: Providing outreach hepatitis C services in community-based services was effective in engaging people living with and at-risk of hepatitis C, in education, testing, and care. Nurse-led, person-centred care was critical to the success of the project. Our evaluation underscores the importance of employing a partnership approach when delivering hepatitis C models of care in community settings, and incorporating workforce education and capacity-building activities when working with non-specialist healthcare professionals.

    Abstract Aim: To identify current 'Golden Hour' practices for initial stabilisation of very preterm infants <32 weeks' gestational age (GA) within tertiary neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) in the Australian and New Zealand Neonatal Network (ANZNN).
    Methods: A 76-question survey regarding delivery room (DR) and NICU stabilisation practices was distributed electronically to directors of tertiary perinatal NICUs in the ANZNN in January 2019. Responses were categorised into GA subgroups: 23-24, 25-27 and 28-31 weeks' GA.
    Results: The response rate was 100% (24/24 units). Delayed cord clamping (DCC) was practised 'always' or 'often' by 21 units (88%). All units used oximetry to target oxygen saturations, and 23/24 (96%) commenced resuscitation in <40% oxygen. Ten units (42%) routinely used DR electrocardiography monitoring. CPAP was preferred as primary respiratory support in one-third of units for infants born 23-24 weeks' GA, compared with 19 units (79%) at 25-27 weeks' GA and 23 units (96%) at 28-31 weeks' GA. DR skin-to-skin care was uncommon, particularly at lower GAs. Five units (21%) used minimally invasive surfactant therapy for non-intubated infants at 23-24 weeks' GA, 13 units (54%) at 25-27 weeks' GA and 16 units (67%) at 28-31 weeks' GA.
    Conclusions: Most Golden Hour stabilisation practices align with international guidelines. Consistency exists with respect to DCC, oxygen saturation targeting and primary CPAP use for infants 25 weeks' GA and above. Where evidence is less certain, practices vary across ANZNN NICUs. Time targets for stabilisation measures may help standardise practice for this population.

    Abstract Nasal high flow (nHF) therapy is a commonly used method of providing non-invasive respiratory support for neonates. It has several potential mechanisms of action: continuous distending pressure, nasopharyngeal dead space washout, provision of heated and humidified gases and reduction of work of breathing. nHF is used in a number of clinical scenarios for preterm and term infants, including primary respiratory and post-extubation support. In recent years, large trials have generated evidence pertinent to these indications. Novel applications for nHF in neonates warrant further research: during endotracheal intubation, for initial delivery room stabilisation of preterm infants and in conjunction with minimally invasive surfactant therapy.

    Abstract The majority of newborns transition to extra uterine life without support. However, respiratory emergencies in the delivery room are a common occurrence. Whilst some situations are predictable e.g. the anticipated birth of an extremely preterm infant, others are less so. In this chapter we address the most frequent scenarios that result in delivery room respiratory emergencies and discuss the latest recommendations for their management. We outline the need for a trained resuscitation team and appropriate equipment to provide respiratory support at every birth. We address the basic care that all infants should receive, the detailed application of non-invasive ventilation and the use of advanced airway techniques. We discuss the unique challenges presented by extreme prematurity including umbilical cord management, use of supplemental oxygen, initial modes of respiratory support and surfactant delivery. We will explore optimal techniques in the management of infants with lung hypoplasia, pneumothorax and meconium aspiration.
