Abstract:
The perinatal period is the key period for the development of brain and central nervous system, and different events in this period will have a profound influence on brain development. Glucocorticoids, antibiotics, magnesium sulfate, caffeine, pulmonary surfactant, and mild hypothermia treatment are commonly used drugs or treatment methods in the perinatal period and are closely associated with the prognosis of neonatal neurodevelopment. This article reviews the latest research on the effect of perinatal treatments on neonatal neurodevelopment, so as to provide a reference for clinical decision making.
