• Fluid Balance and Tight Glycaemic Control Trade-offs for Extremely Low Birth Weight Infants 

  Gunn, C.A.; Dickson, J.L.; Lynn, A.; Benyo, B.; Shaw, Geoff; Chase, Geoff (University of Canterbury. Mechanical Engineering, 2013)

  Tight glycaemic control (TGC) has shown benefits for extremely pre-term infants in intensive care. Some glycaemic control protocols for these infants are constrained by strict fluid balance goals, possibly at the expense ...

• Development of Blood Glucose Control for Extremely Premature Infants 

  Le Compte, A.J.; Chase, Geoff; Lynn, A.; Hann, C.E.; Shaw, Geoff; Lin, J. (University of Canterbury. Mechanical Engineering, 2011)

  Extremely premature neonates often experience hyperglycaemia, which has been linked to increased mortality and worsened outcomes. Insulin therapy can assist in controlling blood glucose levels and promoting needed growth. ...

• Modeling the glucose regulatory system in extreme preterm infants 

  Le Compte, A.J.; Chase, Geoff; Russell, G.; Lynn, A.; Hann, C.E.; Shaw, Geoff; Wong, X-W.; Blakemore, A.; Lin, J. (University of Canterbury. Electrical and Computer EngineeringUniversity of Canterbury. Mechanical Engineering, 2011)

  BACKGROUND: Premature infants represent a significant proportion of the neonatal intensive care population. Blood glucose homeostasis in this group is often disturbed by immaturity of endogenous regulatory systems and the ...
