Summary

This study looked at whether using a special brain monitor (called cerebral NIRS) along with a treatment guide could help prevent brain injury in very low birth weight preterm babies. About 129 babies born at 32 weeks or earlier, weighing 1500 grams or less, took part. The monitor was used only in the experimental group to guide care. The main goal was to see if it reduced brain injury detected by ultrasound at 72 hours of life.
