Cincinnati Children’s Research
As one of the largest pediatric research teams in the United States, our @cincychildrens.bsky.social discoveries and innovations have changed modern medicine.
- Researchers at Cincinnati Children’s developed a novel artificial amniotic fluid that supports fetal development, reduces inflammation, and may improve outcomes in fetoscopic surgery. Read more about this exciting advancement in our Perinatal Institute Impact Report: ow.ly/hMa250YatyU
- An innovative Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocol is helping children recover faster after major bladder reconstructive surgery. The pilot study found hospital stays dropped from 11 days to 6, without increasing readmissions. Read more: ow.ly/uEHy50Y9pmQ
- On #WorldCancerDay, we’re reminded that cancer research is vital. Our top-ranked Cancer and Blood Diseases Institute drives discoveries improving outcomes for children. Learn more about our latest cancer research: scienceblog.cincinnatichildrens.org/area/cancer/
- Proud to see Cincinnati Children’s Child Health-Law Partnership (Child HeLP) highlighted. By integrating legal support into pediatric care, research shows clinicians can better address social determinants of health and advance equity for children and families.
