Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

In this study workers are trying to test the correlation between Hammersmith Infant Neurological Examination and MRI brain/cranial ultrasound with early prediction of neurological developmental outcome of preterm neonates. This study is prospective cross-sectional collecting the data of patients according to daily standard medical practice

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the neurobehavioural performance of infants born preterm using the Hammersmith Infant Neurological Examination (HINE) in standard medical practice and compare it with the gold standard MRI and ultrasound imagings. It would be possible to check do we need to use all the 3 examinations or Hammersmith examination would be enough reliable predictor. Secondary aim is to explore the relationships between MRI brain /cranial us abnormalities and HINE at term-equivalent age in infants born preterm in prediction of neurological outcome at 1 year of chronological age.

This study will be only single arm/single group. This group would receive the regular practice of MRI, Ultrasound (US) and Hammersmith assessments. The 3 assessments would be compared in relationships with the neonatal developmental outcomes (developmental milestones).
