BAPM Andrew Ewer We Imperial NHS 💙 have been routinely doing pulse oximetry as part of NIPE over the last 7/8 years or so. So far we have identified a few TA/PAPVD, coarctation and only last week a case of HLHS not detected antenatally. Delighted that BAPM will support this.


The Newborn Foundation had its first meetings with #NewbornScreening officials in the UK in 2011, 2012, 2013. A dozen years later, there is still no required newborn pulse oximetry screening in the UK. 😞Kudos to Andrew Ewer, Ngozi Edi-Osagie et al, for shining💡on this. #ItsDueTime

Editorial published in The Lancet calls for UK to screen newborn babies using pulse oximetry which could spot congenital heart defects: birmingham.ac.uk/news/2024/univ… Read the editorial: sciencedirect.com/science/articl… Ngozi Edi-Osagie RCPCH Andrew Ewer #congenitalheartdefects

Congratulations Ela Ela Chakkarapani Fantastic news


Unbelievably disappointed to see you promoting such a naive & reckless policy, The Green Party. Every year in Britain women & babies die who cld have been saved with medical intervention. So why push a dangerous ideology? Cancer is “natural” too - doesn’t mean it’s desirable 🤷♀️
