Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) is more than a bonding practice—it’s a life-saving intervention.

At INAC 2025, join Harish Chellani on Sunday, 9 November | 11:00–11:30, as he presents powerful findings from the iKMC Study, which investigated the impact of immediate KMC on preterm survival.

🍼 Why it matters:
According to WHO’s 2023 guideline update, immediate KMC reduces neonatal mortality by 25% in low-birthweight infants when started before stabilisation—especially in low-resource settings.

Speaker Spotlight: Neil Marlow | Session: 5-year follow-up after intravitreal ranibizumab

Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) doesn’t end at discharge—and neither does our responsibility.

On Sunday 9 November | 11:30–12:00, world-renowned neonatologist Neil Marlow presents 5-year follow-up data after intravitreal ranibizumab, offering long-term insights. With anti-VEGF therapies like ranibizumab increasingly used in ROP management, questions about sustained efficacy, recurrence, and systemic safety are more urgent than ever.

This session brings critical evidence that may shape the global guidelines and counselling provided to families whose infants undergo ROP treatment.

This Neonatal Nurses Day, we honour the dedicated hands, hearts, and minds behind the bedside—the neonatal nurses who are often the first to touch, comfort, and advocate for our most fragile patients.

From NICUs in high-resource centres to neonatal corners in rural hospitals, nurses lead the charge in evidence-based care, family support, infection control, thermoregulation, and feeding readiness.

💡 A 2022 global review in BMJ Global Health confirmed what many already know: trained neonatal nurses are directly linked to improved survival in both low- and high-resource settings, with measurable reductions in mortality, hypothermia, and sepsis rates.

Join us 6–9 November in Porto as we elevate, educate, and celebrate neonatal nursing on a global stage.

Tag a neonatal nurse who inspires you—and let them know they are seen, valued, and essential.

Celebrating the Next Generation of Neonatal Innovators

Younger paediatric and neonatal doctors aren’t just tomorrow’s workforce—they’re today’s engine of discovery. A 2023 Nature analysis found that early-career researchers drive a disproportionate share of high-impact biomedical papers and that their first-author work strongly predicts future breakthroughs.

💨 Optimizing Ventilation After Extubation: What PEEP Level Works Best?

When it comes to preterm infant extubation, PEEP matters. Join us at INAC 2025 for a deep dive into one of neonatology’s most debated questions:
Should we use high or low PEEP post-extubation?

Brett Manley (Australia) — a global authority in neonatal respiratory care and lead investigator of several high-impact trials — presents the latest trial evidence in his session: High vs. low PEEP after extubation
🗓 Date: Friday, 7 November 2025
🕘 Time: 09:15–09:45
📍 Location: Renaissance Porto Lapa Hotel, Porto, Portugal

💡 Why it matters:
Optimizing post-extubation PEEP can reduce reintubation, minimize lung injury, and improve survival without disability. This session will equip NICU teams with actionable insights based on the latest clinical trial data.
