Today is #NECAwarenessDay and we at the NPEU CTU are raising awareness of NEC and the devastating impact it can have on babies and their families. Our research is dedicated to improving evidence-based care and outcomes for newborn babies. 💜 @npeu-oxford.bsky.social @oxfordwomenshealth.bsky.social

This weekend on #NECawarenessday we thank all the 7,427 babies enrolled in the neoGASTRIC trial. These babies and their families are helping neonatal teams better understand whether routine gastric residual volume measurement is beneficial and how we can improve care and prevent NEC
