Relationship between brain function (aEEG) and brain structure (MRI) and their predictive value for neurodevelopmental outcome of preterm infants
European Journal of Pediatrics Jun 07, 2018
Hüning B, et al. - Researchers studied the connection between brain function, maturation, and brain structure of very preterm infants by combining early postnatal amplitude-integrated electroencephalography (aEEG) monitoring and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at term equivalent age in order to improve prediction of neurodevelopmental outcome at 24 months’ corrected age. This study comprised 38 infants born before 32 weeks of gestation. It was observed in the findings that functional aEEG parameters were correlated with altered brain maturation on MRI. The prediction of outcome at 24 months was contributed by the combination of aEEG and MRI.
