Thanks to my colleagues, we have finally answered a recurrent question from clinicians taking care of severest neonatal RDS. When should we go for an ultrasound-guided surfactant re-treatment? It was very complex to answer as we needed many patients given the low prevalence of retreatment with optimal resoiratory care. Thus we needed a multi center design with centers having exactly the same respiratory care policy and the right timing for a second poractant-alpha dose (see our paper in Intensive Care Medicine 2011, back in another era!)… but we did it! Lung ultrasound aeration score indicates the need for retreatment with the same accuracy and same threshold of the first dose but only if performed about 12h from the first dose! 705 extremely preterm patients, in three academic NICUs in 🇪🇺(🇫🇷🇮🇹🇪🇸) published on The Lancet EBiomedicine, open access available at:

Lung Ultrasound in NICU/PICU Course

Lung ultrasound is an increasingly used technique with several advantages. For the last three years, ESPNIC members have been organizing a successful two-day course on lung ultrasound in PICU and NICU in Paris. The course has been attended by medical professions from many European countries, Canada, South Africa, and China. The same course is given in English, French or Italian in different editions and consists of both theoretical, practical and interactive sessions. Didactic material is given and attendees have the possibility to do practical exercises on volunteers and neonates. The course, directed by Nadya Yousef (MD) and Daniele De Luca (MD, PhD, - ESPNIC Secretary) has also been reformatted to be offered in other hosting institutions. Additionally, instructors are available to follow trainees and give advice after the course.

Lung ultrasound in PICU/NICU Course is ESPNIC (European Society of Paediatric and Neonatal Intensive Care) endorsed.
