Intraventricular hemorrhage among very low birth weight infants in a South African cohort: a retrospective study of trends & short-term outcomes

Abstract Background Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is one of the critical complications of prematurity with severe forms, associated with irreversible brain damage. We hypothesized that infants born in South Africa may have different modifiable risk factors and outcomes for severe IVH compared to...
