Importance: Children born very preterm are at risk for long-term neurodevelopmental sequelae. Prophylactic high-dose recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEpo) shortly after birth has not been shown to improve cognitive, motor, and behavioral development at 2 and 5 years.
Objective: To investigate whether early high-dose rhEpo is associated with better executive functions and processing speed-late-maturing cognitive functions-in school-aged children born very preterm.
Purpose: To investigate the long-term effects of high-dose recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEPO) administered during the perinatal period on retinal and visual function in children born extremely or very preterm.
Design: Randomized, double-blind clinical trial follow-up plus cohort study.
Methods: Setting: Department of Ophthalmology, University Hospital Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland.
Article Synopsis
- Non-invasive cardiac output monitoring using electrical biosensing technology (EBT) allows for continuous monitoring of hemodynamic variables in neonates, helping to identify instability early for potential interventions.
- The use of thoracic (TEBT) and whole body (WBEBT) monitoring methods has grown in neonatology, although TEBT is not a reliable measure of cardiac output, it may track changes in individual patients over time.
- Recommendations suggest avoiding WBEBT for cardiac output monitoring and highlight the need for further research to address variations in technology and methodology before EBT can become routine in clinical practice.
Purpose: To study the long-term effects of perinatal high-dose recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEPO) on macular structural and vascular development in preterm children.
Design: Randomized, double-blind clinical trial follow-up plus cohort study.
Methods: Setting: Department of Ophthalmology, University Hospital Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland.
