Cranial ultrasound in preterm infants: long term follow up.
One hundred and twenty nine high risk preterm infants (gestational ages 26-36 weeks, mean 31.2 weeks; birth weights 800-3880 g, mean 1490 g) were studied by cranial ultrasound during the neonatal period, over a period of one week to three months, and at the age of 1 year. Neonatal ultrasound scanning was performed with an ATL Mk III real time echoscope, and follow up ultrasound scans at the age...
متن کاملCranial ultrasound screening in late preterm infants
Late preterm births have enormously increased in the last decades and there is mounting evidence showing that infants born late preterm are less healthy than infants born at term [1] and they are more likely to develop neonatal morbidities (temperature instability, respiratory distress syndrome, excessive weight loss and dehydration requiring intravenous infusion, sepsis, hypoglycemia and jaund...
متن کاملCranial ultrasound and MRI at term age in extremely preterm infants.
OBJECTIVES Conventional MRI at term age has been reported to be superior to cranial ultrasound (cUS) in detecting white matter (WM) abnormalities and predicting outcome in preterm infants. However, in a previous study cUS was performed during the first 6 weeks only and not in parallel to MRI at term age. Therefore, the aim of the present work was to study brain injuries in preterm infants perfo...
متن کاملCranial ultrasound findings in late preterm infants and correlation with perinatal risk factors
BACKGROUND Late preterm infants are the most represented premature babies. They are exposed to a wide spectrum of brain lesions which are often clinically silent, supporting a possible role of cerebral ultrasound screening. Aim of the study is to describe the pattern of cranial ultrasound abnormalities in late preterm infants and to define the need for cranial ultrasound according to perinatal ...
متن کاملCorrelation between Late-onset Neutropenia, Sepsis and Associated Factors in Preterm Infants: A single center study
Background: Late onset neutropenia (neutropenia after 3 weeks of life) may be a physiological condition without need to prescribe antibiotics, G-CSF, or IVIG. We aimed to determine the association between sepsis and late onset neutropenia in very low birth weight (<1500 gm) infants. Methods: This study was a cross-sectional prospective study in VLBW infants that were admitted in Mahdieh ...
