Question: Is prolonged monitoring of regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rcSO₂) and hemodynamic parameters a feasible approach? Can these measures predict the neurological outcomes in extremely preterm infants?
Finding: We used a neurocritical care bundle from birth to discharge or term-equivalent age. Infants with poor outcomes had significantly lower rcSO₂ values.
Meaning: Understanding rcSO₂ and hemodynamic parameters may help manage cerebral hypoxia and reduce neurological complications in extremely preterm infants.
