In Utero Magnesium Sulfate Exposure: Effects on Extremely-Low-Birth-Weight (ELBW) Infants
This study examined the effect of magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) exposure on adverse outcome in
extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants. For infants included in the NICHD Neonatal
Research Network Generic Database whose mothers were given prenatal MgSO4, data were
prospectively collected on maternal/infant conditions and magnesium exposure (including
indications, timing and duration of exposure).
extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants. For infants included in the NICHD Neonatal
Research Network Generic Database whose mothers were given prenatal MgSO4, data were
prospectively collected on maternal/infant conditions and magnesium exposure (including
indications, timing and duration of exposure).
Retrospective studies suggested that the risk of cerebral palsy and intraventricular
hemorrhage (IVH) in extremely premature infants of mothers given magnesium sulfate (MgSO4)
may be reduced. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of MgSO4 exposure on
adverse outcomes in extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants. For infants included in the
NICHD Neonatal Research Network Generic Database, data were prospectively collected on
maternal/infant conditions and MgSO4 exposure (including indications, timing and duration of
exposure).
