Abstract:
Improvements in prenatal and neonatal intensive care have raised the premature infants survival rate.Meanwhile,the incidence of premature brain injury is also increased.White matter iniury is one of the most common diseases of brain injury in premature infants and often leads to neurodevelopment delays and cognitive impairment.Early diagnosis and treatment of brain injury in preterm infants are important to improve their quality of life.Recent studies have shown that early detection of brain injure is benefited from some monitoring methods,including the electrophysiology,imaging,biochemical markers and cerebral oxygen metabolism of premature infants.
