Cerebral oxygenation is not always reflected by systemic arterial oxygenation. Therefore,
regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rScO2) monitoring with near-infrared spectroscopy …

The cardiovascular care of critically ill preterm infants, particularly around the periviable
period, remains a significant challenge in the neonatal intensive care unit for a multitude of …

A widely accepted concept in perinatal medicine is that boys are more susceptible than girls
to complications of prematurity. However, whether this 'male disadvantage of …

The optimal management strategy for patent ductus arteriosus in preterm infants remains a
topic of debate. Available evidence for a treatment strategy might be biased by the delayed …

Assessment and management of a patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in premature infants
remains problematic. The more immature the infant, the more likely a PDA is to be present …

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) allows for continuous, non-invasive monitoring of end-
organ tissue oxygenation. The use of NIRS, cerebral NIRS (cNIRS) in particular, in neonatal …

Infants requiring admission to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) are particularly
vulnerable to developing brain injury. The severity of the underlying clinical conditions and …

Neurological morbidities such as peri/intraventricular hemorrhage and periventricular
leukomalacia largely determine the neurodevelopmental outcome of vulnerable preterm …

Aim To assess uptake and applications of near‐infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) by neonatal
intensive care units (NICUs). Methods A pre‐piloted online questionnaire was distributed in …

Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is a serious concern for preterm infants and can
predispose such infants to brain injury and poor neurodevelopmental outcomes. IVH is …
