Abstract

Neurologic impairment (NI), including CP, is considered to be largely determined by antenatal events. To explore the impact of antenatal and neonatal events and therapies we compared 72 singleton inborn infants born'83-'91 with neurologic impairment (NI) at 20 months corrected age (xbar Bwt 1kg; xbar GA 28 wks, 58% black, 53% male), including 50 with CP (25 di-, 12 hemi-, 13 quadri-plegia); 11 hypotonia, 4 hypertonia and 7 hydrocephalus to the next born neurologically normal (NN) VLBW matched by BWt, GA, and race, and sex.
