Abstract

The hemodynamic changes during the first few breaths after birth are probably the most significant and drastic adaptation in the human life. These changes are critical for a smooth transition of fetal to neonatal circulation. With the cord clamping, lungs take over as the source of oxygenation from placenta. A smooth transition of circulation is a complex mechanism and primarily depends upon the drop in pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) and increase in systemic vascular resistance (SVR). Understanding the normal transition physiology and the adverse adaptation is of utmost importance to the clinicians looking after neonates. It may have a significant influence on the presentation of congenital heart defects (CHDs) in infants. Bedside echocardiography may help in understanding the transition physiology, especially the hemodynamic changes and shunting across ductus arteriosus and foramen ovale, and it may play an important role in making judicious clinical decisions based upon the altered physiology.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 07 June 2018.
All research outputs
#13,361,771
of 23,053,613 outputs
Outputs from Frontiers in Pediatrics
#1,666
of 6,114 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#163,836
of 326,931 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Frontiers in Pediatrics
#57
of 113 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,053,613 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 41st percentile – i.e., 41% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 6,114 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.5. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 71% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 326,931 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 48th percentile – i.e., 48% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 113 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 48th percentile – i.e., 48% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
