OBJECTIVE Motor development is frequently reported to be impaired in very low birth weight (VLBW) infants, but little is known about the moderately low birth weight (MLBW) infants. The aim of this study was to investigate whether MLBW preterm infants present developmental delay. METHODS In a historical cohort study, 18±2 month-old infants with a history of low birth weight (LBW) were identifi...
The aim of this study was to evaluate KL-6 and CC16 levels and their correlation with neurodevelopmental outcome among very low birth weight pre-term infants at 12 months corrected age. This prospective cohort study was performed from 2011 to 2013 by enrolling pre-term neonates of gestational age ≤ 32 weeks and birth weight ≤ 1500 g. Serum KL-6 and CC16 levels were determined 7 days after birth...
OBJECTIVE The neonatal mortality rate (NMR) continues to remain quite high, one important cause being preterm deliveries. The main obstacle in the pathway towards decreasing NMR is identification of babies in need of extra care. To analyze the utility of newborn foot length as a proxy measure for birth weight and gestational age. METHODS A cross-sectional study done in a hospital of eastern I...
Objectives: This study compares the prevalence of high neonatal risk among very-low-birth-weight babies (VLBW) referred to North Carolina’s Infant/Toddler Program and those VLBW babies not referred to the program. The study also compares demographic and socioeconomic characteristics of mothers with VLBW babies referred and not referred to the program. Methods: The sample for this study was obta...

Prevention of protein deprivation in the extremely low birth weight infant: a nutritional emergency.
Insufficient nutrient supply in preterm infants and protein deprivation in particular can represent a nutritional emergency. It can cause many of the features of the starvation response, including insulin resistance and hyperglycemia, as well as growth failure and neurological injury. At Baylor University Medical Center, we began providing intravenous protein on the first day of life to extreme...
OBJECTIVE Despite increased knowledge and improving technology, chronic lung disease (CLD) rates in extremely low birth weight infants have remained constant for 20 years. One reason for this is an ineffective translation of research-proven improvements into practice. The Neonatal Intensive Care Quality Improvement Collaborative Year 2000 (NIC/Q 2000) was created to provide participating nurser...
Neonatal gastric perforation is an uncommon but life-threatening condition, which is mainly encountered in premature infants. Primary surgical repair is the principal mode of the treatment.
