Electroencephalography and brain injury in preterm infants
Electroencephalography (EEG) is a sensitive method for detection of brain injury in preterm infants. Although the acute and chronic EEG changes are mainly non-specific regarding type of injury, they correlate with later neurological and cognitive function. In infants developing periventricular hemorrhagic or ischemic brain injury, acute EEG findings include depression of background activity and...
متن کاملBrain damage in preterm infants: etiological pathways.
Preterm newborns represent a high-risk population for brain damage, primarily affecting the white matter, and for related neurodevelopmental disabilities. Determinants of brain damage have been extensively investigated, but there are still many controversies on how these factors can influence the developing brain and provoke damage. The concept of etiological pathway, instead of a single determ...
متن کاملIschemia-Related Brain Damage in Preterm and Term Infants
The maturational stage of the brain at the time of injury plays a key role in the pattern of brain damage in humans, including regional and cell-type–specific susceptibility. In this minireview, we will summarize available models of preterm and at-term ischemic brain injury in rodents and in larger species and discuss how maturation stage of the brain at the time of an insult affects the underl...
متن کاملEarly amplitude-integrated electroencephalography predicts brain injury and neurological outcome in very preterm infants
Early amplitude-integrated electroencephalography (aEEG) has been widely used in term infants with brain injury to predict neurodevelopmental outcomes; however, the prognostic value of early aEEG in preterm infants is unclear. We evaluated how well early aEEG could predict brain damage and long-term neurodevelopmental outcomes in very preterm infants compared with brain imaging assessments. We ...
