Introduction
ROP
ANEMIA OF PREMATURITY, RETINOPATHY OF PREMATURITY
Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) offers a noninvasive, real-time monitoring method of tissue oxygenation, shedding light on the delicate balance between oxygen delivery and consumption.NIRS monitoring has been useful among preterm neonates with a variety of clinical conditions and has the potential to guide clinical interventions, including packed red blood cell (PRBC) transfusion.The progressive reduction of HbF in preterm neonates with anemia of prematurity has been associated with retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and other unfavorable outcomes.
