Jessica O’Logbon: Maternal Hemoglobin and Early Neonatal Outcomes

Jessica O’Logbon, Academic Foundation Doctor at Guy’s and St Thomas’​ NHS Foundation Trust, shared a post on LinkedIn:

“I’m pleased to share that my abstract, “Maternal Hemoglobin and Early Neonatal Outcomes in Sierra Leone,” has been accepted for a poster presentation at the American Academy of Pediatrics 2026 National Conference and Exhibition, in the Section on Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine.

The study sits at the maternal-infant interface:

how a mother’s haemoglobin in pregnancy relates to her newborn’s outcomes in the first days of life.

In a setting like Sierra Leone, where maternal anaemia is common and neonatal risk is high, our work asks if one predicts the other…

It is also the thread that has run through my research and clinical work for years:

treating the mother and baby as one system rather than two separate patients.

A neonatal-perinatal forum is exactly where that idea has to earn its place at the cot side!

Grateful to the study team behind this work.”
