Confidence in the prediction of neurodevelopmental outcome by cranial ultrasound and MRI in preterm infants.
Arch Dis Child Fetal Neonatal Ed November 2010 Vol 95 No 6 F388 Confi dence in the prediction of neurodevelopmental outcome by cranial ultrasound and MRI in preterm infants Phumza Nongena,1,2 Ash Ederies,1,2 Denis V Azzopardi,1,2 A David Edwards1,2 together with 95% CIs for the estimates. These data should indicate to clinicians how much confi dence can be placed in a prognosis assigned after n...
متن کاملNeonatal MRI to predict neurodevelopmental outcomes in preterm infants.
BACKGROUND Very preterm infants are at high risk for adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been proposed as a means of predicting neurodevelopmental outcomes in this population. METHODS We studied 167 very preterm infants (gestational age at birth, 30 weeks or less) to assess the associations between qualitatively defined white-matter and gray-matter abnorm...
متن کاملPeriventricular leucomalacia and neurodevelopmental outcome in preterm infants.
During an 18 month period, 120 preterm infants of 34 weeks' gestation or less were prospectively examined for periventricular leucomalacia (PVL) by cerebral ultrasound. Neurological and developmental assessment was carried out at 18 months of age corrected for prematurity in 82 surviving neonates. The developmental outcome (Griffiths development quotient) was above 80 and similar in infants wit...
متن کاملNeuroimaging and neurodevelopmental outcome in extremely preterm infants.
BACKGROUND Extremely preterm infants are at risk for neurodevelopmental impairment (NDI). Early cranial ultrasound (CUS) is usual practice, but near-term brain MRI has been reported to better predict outcomes. We prospectively evaluated MRI white matter abnormality (WMA) and cerebellar lesions, and serial CUS adverse findings as predictors of outcomes at 18 to 22 months' corrected age. METHOD...
متن کاملVisual performance in preterm infants with brain injuries compared with low-risk preterm infants.
BACKGROUND Neonatal brain injuries are the main cause of visual deficit produced by damage to posterior visual pathways. While there are several studies of visual function in low-risk preterm infants or older children with brain injuries, research in children of early age is lacking. AIM To assess several aspects of visual function in preterm infants with brain injuries and to compare them wi...
