“…7.5%) which co-relates with the study done by Amato M, Howald H Von Muralt. 19 Abnormal neurosonogram findings in babies who have not received steroids were about 63.6%. It co-relates with studies done by Singh Uma et al (76%).The protective mechanism of it may be due to an increase in neonatal blood pressure which prevents blood pressure fluctuations or may result from enhanced maturation of the cardiopulmonary system and germinal matrix of the premature infant.…”

Background: Incomplete formation and maturation of the central nervous system makes it extremely vulnerable to injury, in the case of premature neonates. This can result in a broad range of neurodevelopmental abnormalities. Cranial ultrasound is a sensitive tool for the early detection of these. Hence the present study was undertaken to assess the prevalence of neurosonological abnormality in preterm infants. The aims of the study were to identify and enumerate the neurosonographic features, to assess the severity of brain injuries by grading the neurosonographic findings and to correlate the clinical presentations with the neurosonographic findings.Methods: The present study was conducted in Department of Radiodiagnosis, Pariyaram Medical College. It consisted of all preterm neonates (less than 37 weeks of gestational age) referred to the Radiology department. The initial scan will be done as soon as possible (within 2 weeks of birth) followed by a repeat scan of the same infants at 36 weeks of corrected age, and at 8weeks post-partum.Results: A total of 100 neonates with gestational age varying from 29 to 37 weeks were studied, with the birth weight varying from 1.5 to 1.9 kg. The most common abnormality found on neurosonogram was germinal-matrix haemorrhage, followed by periventricular leukomalacia.Conclusions: Real time sonography is a sensitive non-invasive initial investigation for the detection of various brain lesions in the preterm neonates.

Introduction: Intraventricular Haemorrhage is the most common forms of brain injury in preterm neonates 1 , more commonly seen in the smallest and most preterm neonates contributing to mortality, morbidity during the time of stay in hospital. IVH among VLBW is common with the incidence of around 20-25% out of which around 2/3 rd are mild to moderate in severity with [grade 1-2]. Objective: To study the incidence of intraventricular hemorrhage in preterm neonates. Methods: This is a hospital based, prospective, observational study. Total 100 inborn preterm neonates fulfilling the inclusion criteria were screened for IVH using USG cranium as modality of choice. Results: Distribution of study subjects as per IVH on USG showed 86% of the preterm neonates did not have Intra ventricular hemorrhage while the rest 14% had Intra ventricular Hemorrhage (IVH). Among those 14 neonates who had IVH, 11 neonates (78.6%) had Grade -I IVH and the remaining 21.4% had Grade-II IVH. Conclusion:On the basis of our present study the prevalence of IVH among preterm neonates in the present study was high (14%). Majority of them had grade I IVH. It was particularly high among those of gestational age ≥ 30 weeks. Apnea has a significant association with presence of IVH.
