Although many perinatal factors have been linked to adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes in very premature infants, much of the variation outcome remains unexplained. The impact on brain development 1 potential factor, exposure stressors neonatal intensive care unit, has not yet studied a systematic, prospective manner.In this cohort study infants born at <30 weeks gestation, nurses were trained recording procedures and cares. These recordings used derive Neonatal Infant Stressor Scale...
Background: Fentanyl is commonly used in preterm infants. Relatively little known regarding the neurodevelopmental outcomes of infants exposed to fentanyl. Objective: To investigate association between cumulative fentanyl dose and brain injury diameters a cohort Methods: Data on demographics, perinatal course, neonatal including total exposure prior term equivalent age, were retrospectively evaluated for 103 born at ≤30 weeks gestational age (mean 26.9 ± 1.8 weeks) who underwent magnetic...
