Neonatal Neurology Assessment and Treatment Education (NeoNATE) has been developed by the BPNA with Consultant Neonatologist colleagues.  The aim is to improve neonatal neurological education and therefore improve the diagnosis and management of neonates with neurological disorders.

NeoNATE is a practical 2-day course for anyone who looks after neonates.  The course consists of lectures and interactive workshops, which are limited to 8 per group.  It is delivered by a faculty of 6-7, both paediatric neurologists and neonatologists, who give a unique perspective on a wide range of conditions and problems specific to neonatal care.

NeoNATE is a good introduction to neurological assessment and condition in neonates.  It covers a wide range of conditions, as well as HIE and pre term birth, to help clinicians manage difficult cases and puzzles on the ground.

NeoNATE has been developed by Consultant Paediatric Neurologists, Neonatologists, Paediatricians with an expertise in neonatal care, Paediatric Radiologists and Consultant Neurophysiologists. It is updated every 3-years.

Topics covered include:

  • The neurological examination in the neonate
  • Recognition of neonatal seizures
  • Interpretation of neonatal cerebral function monitoring and the use of standard EEG
  • Hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy
  • Encephalopathy secondary to metabolic disorders
  • Haemorrhagic lesions
  • Perinatal stroke
  • Hydrocephalus
  • Neural tube defects
  • Neonatal seizures and epilepsies
  • An approach to the floppy and the stiff baby
  • Central and neuromuscular motor disorders

NeoNATE has been developed for:

  • Consultant Neonatologists and trainees
  • Consultant Paediatric Neurologists and trainees
  • Consultant Paediatricians who provide neonatology services in DGHs and trainees
  • Advanced neonatal nurse practitioners / nurse consultants
