There is no consensus on the optimal pCO2 levels in the newborn. We reviewed the effects
of hypercapnia and hypocapnia and existing carbon dioxide thresholds in neonates. A …

Neonatal brain monitoring in the neonatal intensive care units (NICU) requires a continuous
review of the spontaneous cortical activity, ie, the electroencephalograph (EEG) background …

BACKGROUND: Electroencephalogram (EEG) discontinuity can occur at high
concentrations of anesthetic drugs, reflecting suppression of electrocortical activity. This …

Background: Cerebral oxygenation monitored non-invasively by near-infrared spectroscopy
(NIRS) is of increasing interest in neonatal care. Cerebral oxygenation is determined by …

Objectives To evaluate the effects of acute arterial carbon dioxide partial pressure changes
on cerebral oxygenation and electrical activity in infants born preterm. Study design This …

Background: Levels or fluctuations in the partial pressure of CO2 (PCO2) may affect
outcomes for extremely low birth weight infants. Objectives: In an exploratory analysis of a …

Background Non-invasive respiratory ventilation has greatly improved the evolution of
respiratory distress in neonates, especially for preterm infants, but few studies have …

Background Sedatives are essential drugs in every intensive care unit in order to ensure the
patient's optimal level of comfort. Avoiding conditions of over‐and under‐sedation is a …

Early life stress in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) can predispose premature infants
to adverse health outcomes and neurodevelopment delays. Hands-on-care and procedural …
