We have limited experience with EEG in extremely premature infants at 22–24 weeks postmenstrual age (PMA). Strictly speaking, it is difficult to define EEG findings obtained during this period as “normal” because extreme premature birth itself is not a physiological event. Based on our experience, we describe EEG findings in these extremely preterm infants that we assume to be physiological.

摘要

We have limited experience with EEG in extremely premature infants at 22–24 weeks postmenstrual age (PMA). Strictly speaking, it is difficult to define EEG findings obtained during this period as “normal” because extreme premature birth itself is not a physiological event. Based on our experience, we describe EEG findings in these extremely preterm infants that we assume to be physiological.
