Journal ArticleDOI
An overview of mortality and sequelae of preterm birth from infancy to adulthood.
TL;DR: Because mortality rates have fallen, the focus for perinatal interventions is to develop strategies to reduce long-term morbidity, especially the prevention of brain injury and abnormal brain development.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nasal CPAP or Intubation at Birth for Very Preterm Infants
Colin J Morley,Colin J Morley,Colin J Morley,Peter G Davis,Peter G Davis,Lex W. Doyle,Lex W. Doyle,Luc P. Brion,Jean Michel Hascoët,John B. Carlin +9 more
TL;DR: In infants born at 25-to-28-weeks' gestation, early nasal CPAP did not significantly reduce the rate of death or bronchopulmonary dysplasia, as compared with intubation, and fewer infants received oxygen at 28 days, and they had fewer days of ventilation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Caffeine Therapy for Apnea of Prematurity
Barbara Schmidt,Robin S. Roberts,Peter G Davis,Lex W. Doyle,Keith J. Barrington,Arne Ohlsson,Alfonso Solimano,Win Tin +7 more
TL;DR: Caffeine therapy for apnea of prematurity reduces the rate of bronchopulmonary dysplasia in infants with very low birth weight and reduced weight gain temporarily.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neurobehavioral outcomes of school-age children born extremely low birth weight or very preterm in the 1990s.
TL;DR: School-aged ELBW or very preterm children born in the 1990s continue to display cognitive, educational, and behavioral impairments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Early developmental intervention programmes provided post hospital discharge to prevent motor and cognitive impairment in preterm infants
TL;DR: Meta-analysis led to the conclusion that intervention improved cognitive outcomes at infancy, and effects on motor and cognitive impairment when early developmental interventions are provided within high-quality randomised trials with low risk of bias for sequence generation, allocation concealment, blinding of outcome measures and selective reporting bias.
