Abstract

In preterm neonates we investigated cerebral hypoxia assessed with near-infrared-spectroscopy during immediate transition after birth and general movement optimality score assessed before discharge. General movement optimality score decreased with increasing cerebral hypoxia. Burden of cerebral hypoxia during immediate transition might be associated with impaired short-term neurological outcome in preterm neonates.
