Perinatal risk-indicators for long-term respiratory morbidity among preterm or very low birth weight neonates

Objectives: To develop prediction models for long-term respiratory morbidity. To explore if respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) is a risk-indicator for long-term respiratory morbidity and to identify other perinatal risk-indicators for long-term respiratory morbidity. Study design: In the Dutch POPS cohort 1338 live born infants delivered in The...

Perinatal risk indicators for long-term neurological morbidity among preterm neonates

Objective: Many obstetric interventions are performed to improve long-term neonatal outcome. However, long-term neonatal outcome is usually not a primary outcome because it is time-consuming and expensive. The aim of this project was to identify different perinatal risk indicators and to develop prediction models for neurologic morbidity at 2...
