For those celebrating today, and to the many families and care teams spending today with little ones in medical settings, happy #Thanksgiving. Swift healing and love to you and yours. ❤️🍁 #BloomStandard

How do you decide exactly where the treatment threshold should be? Dr. Alex Kemper — lead author of the 2022 AAP Hyperbilirubinemia Guidelines — explains why determining phototherapy thresholds took years of debate, evidence review, and committee discussion. With babies of different gestational ages, varying risk factors, and complex neurotoxicity considerations, there’s no single formula that solves it. Guideline writing meant balancing imperfect data, diverse perspectives, and the goal of protecting infants while avoiding unnecessary treatment.

Today at @LUTHofficial, we celebrated #WorldPrematurityDay with two sets of thriving 4-year-old quadruplets born here using #NEST360 equipment, & two sets of preterm babies currently in care. 💜 Every baby, no matter how small, deserves a fighting chance. #WPD2025 #NewbornCare

Together, we can ensure every preterm baby has a chance to survive and thrive. 💜 Join us in building systems that save lives & shape futures. 🔗 Donate: every.org/nest360/f/a-tiny-b… #InvestInNewborns #HopefulFutures #WPD2025 #BornTooSoon #WorldPrematurityDay #NICUBabies #Preemie

“I’ve had the privilege to work in some amazing innovation ecosystems - Medical Alley in Minneapolis, in the Asia-Pacific region and in Europe. But Wales is a really special place. I’ve really not seen anything like it”. 💬@BloomStandard 🔗tradeandinvest.wales/inside-… #WalesInvested

In Silicon Valley last week, with a couple hundred amazing medtech colleagues for #MedTechInnovator #Summit. Bloom was honored to be there as alumni - and to our pediatric ultrasound system in the spotlight! ❤️👏

Happening TODAY!

Our co-founder @asaarinen was the leading advocate in getting #CCHD screening added to the RUSP in the U.S. An amazing legacy that has saved thousands of lives in the years since her baby daughter’s diagnosis with asymptomatic heart defects. 🫀

Pulse oximetry screening for critical congenital heart disease (CCHD) in newborns has decreased early infant deaths by 33%—a landmark improvement in newborn care. This simple, painless test helps neonatologists catch serious heart defects before babies leave the hospital. Learn more about the impact and latest updates on newborn screening by listening to this episode: buff.ly/UCRXbyO.

It’s been an important week for those impacted by CHD! For Bloom Standard, it’s year round, 24/7. Our founders are heart parents, driven. ❤️‍🩹 A privilege to be working every day to improve the lives of ALL children with congenital and pediatric heart diseases! #CHDawarenessweek

Happy Holidays! To all our partners, collaborators and supporters around the globe, thank you for all you do for vulnerable patients around the world. Here’s to all that 2024 delivered…and to peace, hope and joy in 2025.

Double the Love for #GivingTuesday! 💕 All contributions are DOUBLED up to $5,000 thanks to a generous member of our advisory board clinical research network! Connect twice as many little lives with the medical care they need. ❤️🤱🏽 2X impact ——> goo.gl/yj83L5!

So thrilled to participate in this #GlobalHealth partnerships symposium @SwanseaUni in Wales. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Congrats @DrEmmaRees on organizing a spectacular program including #Mongolian visiting clinicians. 👏👏

Q2 First need to increase #pulseoximetry so hypoxemic children don't fall through cracks. Excited about new #AI-enabled tools like #lungultrasound #coughsound & also new risk stratification tools to identify kids at greatest risk of death #WorldPneumoniaDay #PneumoniaAwareness

Happy Birthday, Bloom Standard! 🎂🎉 We even hid a secret 11 in our logo, easier to spot it the reverse out logo versions. :) In the world of #Pediatric #Medtech, it’s extra special to be celebrating a 5th bday. Here’s to the next 5 years of innovation! #11/11

Over 800 women and more than 6,000 newborns die each day from complications related to birth. That's why @rice360glht convened experts to tackle this pressing global issue at the inaugural “Innovation for Day One” conference hosted at @RiceUniversity. news.rice.edu/news/2024/rice…

We recently released our State of Parenting Report, revealing the immense pressure new parents face. The study brings attention to the public health issue of parental mental health and challenges of stress, anxiety, and exhaustion. Read the report here: cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/10…
