            • In the preterm group, mean time to initiate aEEG monitoring was 5.2 (±1.2) h of life, and pathological trace or DLVP were associated with higher rates of poor early outcome (p=0.03, PPV 90.9%, NPV 75%, RR=3.63). - Jornal de Pediatra by
            • However, there are several challenges that delay the translation of aEEG monitoring into clinical practice in preterm infants. A major obstacle when comparing results from different studies is due to the differences in study populations, evaluated time periods, aEEG parameters, outcome assessments, and statistical reporting (7,19,20,21). - nature by
