One hundred and forty-six infants of 34 weeks' gestation or less were repeatedly scanned by
means of real-time ultrasound to diagnose the presence of intraventricular haemorrhage …

Real-time ultrasound scans were performed on 66 low-birth-weight infants within the first six
hours of life (mean, two hours), and then at 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours, and thereafter at …

Background Previous reports describe a statistical association, among very‐low‐birthweight
(VLBW,< 1500 g) neonates, between red blood cell (RBC) transfusion in the first days after …

Intraventricular hemorrhage is a frequent postmortem finding in the preterm infant with
severe perinatal problems, often with respiratory distress. It is a late event, most probably …

Computerised tomography has revealed that more than 40% of premature neonates (birth-
weight< 1500 g) have cerebral bleeds in the first 3 or 4 days of extrauterine life. Injection …

• Sixty-four infants with birth weights of 500 to 1,500 g were studied to determine the
incidence and outcome of intracranial hemorrhage. Thirty-seven (58%) had hemorrhage …

Many reports of the occurrence of periventricular-intraventricular hemorrhage (PVH-IVH) are
biased by the inclusion of both inborn and outborn infants. To obviate this selection bias we …

Comparisons were made in 69 newborn infants of the appearance of the brain as visualised
by linear-array real-time ultrasound, computerised tomography and at autopsy, in order to …

The detection of the onset of intraventricular haemorrhage (IVH) during life is a necessary
preliminary to understanding the cause of this condition. In 10 infants of very low birthweight …

Understanding the unique problems of bleeding in the tiny baby depends on a working
knowledge of various hemostatic mechanisms. Clinical syndromes often associated with …
