I have struggggeled with ROP and finally feel confident in explaining it simply. THANK YOU. Could you do one on IVIG?

@TalaTalksNICU 3 года назад

Fantastic! (Although I still struggle with how many details the parents truly want!) Thanks so much for watching and letting us know. We are planning a series of lectures on hyperbili (and role of IVIG in immune hemolysis- as that's most common place we use it). Is that what you were thinking? Or just general uses IVIG? Thanks again Vickie!

Fantastic lecture. I am a proud student of these lectures now. You made it ridiculously simple Dr. Tala.

@TalaTalksNICU 2 года назад

Oh yay! That makes us so happy- we wanted to use that line in the beginning- 'made ridiculously simple'-!- but as we're sure you know- it was already taken! Ha! But that's what we're aiming for every day! Thank you!!

@deebutler9813 2 года назад

You have explained this the best out of any video I've found. I was born at 25 weeks and had ROP - I had surgery and now am only nearsighted fortunately, but wanted to understand what ROP is. Thank you!

@TalaTalksNICU 2 года назад

Hi Molly! Love hearing from ex-preemies- thank you! About ten years ago, I rounded with a medical student who told me she had surgery for ROP too, and I was so impressed she didn't even need glasses. She looked at me like I was a 100 years old and said, "I'm wearing contacts." So glad you're doing so well now, and that this video helped :)

@rolandschweiger8678 4 месяца назад

thank you very much for the detailed explaination. I was born 1970 (Vienna, Austria, Europe) and at that time there was unfortunately no standardized retina screening in premature babys. i was a 6 month baby with about 900g of birth weight und do suppose the medical staff had to fight for my life. they say i was in the incubator for approx 4 weeks and a total of 3 months in hospital. Developed almost all the stages of ROP (which at that time had i different name "retrolental fibroplasia"); in early childhood i do remember having eye sight in both eyes because i found it funny to squint on purpose. at about the age of 5 i developed a severe cateract on the right eye almost overnight and from that moment on they could no longer see the retina and made no mor echography, finally i lost total eye sight there, due to neo-vascularisation. on the left eye up to date i have remaining eye sight of about 1% and go to check up regularily and until now what remains of the retina there, is stable. i did also develop cateract here and since 1991 i have an artificial lense and still a slightly translucent capsule and "things floating around" in the vitrious, they did offer me some laser treatment to get rid of the rest of the capsule enclosing the lense but i find it for the moment too risky. as long as my eye sight stays like it is, i am somewhat content. IT IS NICE TO HEAR that today babys are well screened to prevent blindness or loss of eyesight. again tnx for the video. greetings from Vienna! (Roland Schweiger)

WOW that is such an amazing story! It is absolutely crazy how much everything has changed- but it is super strong babies like yourself who survived with an excellent outcome who showed the world whats going with the eyes. Thank you so much for sharing it. Would you be OK if I alluded to it in future talks? Thanks so much for watching our video and for taking the time to write!!!!

Love and enjoy your videos! You're a natural educator👏👏👏. Also I have enjoyed your interview on The incubator Podcast.

Hi! I had 31 week prem twins 1.5 years ago, I have a Hosptial eye routine appt coming up. Will they be testing for ROP again this time?- already had twice since being born and nothing found. Or is this likely just to be a standard eye test. Unable to get through to the Hosptial for info

@TalaTalksNICU 2 года назад

hello- congratulations on your twins! The eyes at this point would be fully vascularized (i.e. the blood vessels are fully developed at the back of the eyes)- so not really checking for ROP. BUT- babies born earlier are at risk of having other eye issues- like short-sightendness- so they're likely following up with this. Good luck!!

@sydneyharris4457 2 года назад

Awesome! Can you let us know why prolonged oxygen therapy can effect ROP? Thanks!

@TalaTalksNICU 2 года назад

Hello Sydney- great question- it is thought to be related to the effect of Oxygen on vascular endothelial growth factor (remember avastin targets this). High or low Oxygen at critical periods may up or down regulate this protein. I'm not sure beyond this!!!

I am y0 hears old and have ROP. I had many surgeries for retinal detachments…. I wasgiven oxygen to save my life.

@TalaTalksNICU 2 дня назад

Oh wow/ I’m so sorry for all the surgeries you’ve had- I hope you have reasonable vision now. You hit the point exactly/ more important to save a life than save full vision- so I’m sure your medical team did what they had to do. Wishing you health!

@rasverixxyleighraq1509 Год назад

Excessive Oxygen Exposure in the Preterm neonatal period is a major factor in capilary atrophy and can lead to ROP. But One though I have was: If a Pregnant woman was kept in a state of Hyperbaria for the the last 3-4m of pregnancy then could this have a similar effect on retinal vascular growth and at birth when Oxygen blood levels drop suddenly, could vascular overgrowth like ROP occur?

@TalaTalksNICU Год назад

That's a great question! I don't know! Logically, I would expect it to though!

Can you tell symptoms and there resions ?

@TalaTalksNICU 2 года назад

Hello! There aren't really signs ROP- by looking at the baby- we can't tell what stage or zone the retinal vessels are at (which is why the ophthalmologist needs to dilute the eyes and look directly at the retina).If the ROP reached the stage of detachment- which obviously should never happen-the infant would lose his red reflex.

@NaumanRashid74 Год назад

My Nephew was born pre-mature and was admitted to NICU for 3 days, he survived but later was diagnosed with Stage 5 ROP, the doctors suggested us that there is no cure for it now as both eyes dont have light

@NaumanRashid74 Год назад

Would there be any chance to get his vision restored? He is around 5 1/2 Months old now.

@TalaTalksNICU Год назад

Im so sorry about your nephew. This sounds very unusual- and definitely a question for an ophthalmologist. I wish you luck.

@angieespinoza4197 3 года назад

What does it mean by corrected age?

@TalaTalksNICU 3 года назад

Great question. Normally we use corrected gestational age (or cGA) to refer to the baby's age as if the baby were still in utero. So a an ex-28 week preemie who is now 4 weeks old, has a corrected gestational age of 32 weeks. When ex premies are older, we use it similarly, to evaluate developmental milestones. So for example for a baby who was born at 24 weeks GA (40-24= 16 weeks. 16 weeks ~ 4 months early) who just turned 12 months old, we would say his corrected age is 8 months. So even though technically the baby is one, we would expect him to have the developmental milestones of an 8 month old. We stop accounting for the prematurity of babies when they reach 3 years old. Hope this helps!!!

Can it be rop in one eye

@TalaTalksNICU 2 года назад

Hello! Excellent question! You can have much worse ROP in one eye compared to the other. (This is less likely because obviously the infant has the same genes and has been exposed to the same environment). Usually if there is a difference, it is only one stage difference between the eyes. (Which may sometimes mean one eye needs treatment but the other doesn't). Thank you
