Any class action lawsuit filed (period) says "everything".<br />The fact the case was thrown out means nothing!!! but another person in a position of trust failing the precious boo-boo's and their <br />parents all over again. Surely brilliant minds will figure this out sooner than later, if not - but meanwhile inform, inform inform! <br />I know firsthand about not being informed of the risk of a procedure and the price from that was my mothers precious life. Because <br />the very risk that could happen, did happen. <br />Carolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02916598876575236275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32053362.post-79750566183072396162015-11-18T10:49:51.380-05:002015-11-18T10:49:51.380-05:00The reason studies are still being conducted is be...The reason studies are still being conducted is because it's complicated. The standard O2 saturation of preemie air has been lower than 100% for a long time, but finding the sweet spot for retinal protection vs brain development is tricky. In utero, a fetus is perpetually hypoxic, but once delivered preterm, the organ development is altered, so just maintaining placental levels would not be appropriate.Dr.Theresa Willetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14508424041237572491noreply@blogger.com
