    • Effects of tilt on cerebral hemodynamics measured by NeoDoppler in healthy neonates 

      Jarmund, Anders Hagen; Ødegård, Siv Steinsmo; Torp, Hans; Nyrnes, Siri Ann (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Background: Today, there are conflicting descriptions of how neonates respond to tilt. Examining physiologic responses of cerebral blood flow velocities (BFVs) in challenging situations like a tilt requires equipment that ...
    • Incidence of invasive Group B Streptococcal infection and the risk of infant death and cerebral palsy: a Norwegian Cohort Study 

      Mynarek, Maren; Bjellmo, Solveig; Lydersen, Stian; Afset, Jan Egil; Andersen, Guro Lillemoen; Vik, Torstein (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Background Group B Streptococcus (GBS) is the leading cause of invasive neonatal infection worldwide. In high-income countries mortality rates are 4–10%, and among survivors of GBS meningitis 30–50% have neurodevelopmental ...
    • NeoDoppler: New ultrasound technology for continous cerebral circulation monitoring in neonates. 

      Vik, Sigrid Dannheim; Torp, Hans; Follestad, Turid; Støen, Ragnhild; Nyrnes, Siri Ann (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      BACKGROUND: There is a strong need for continuous cerebral circulation monitoring in neonatal care, since suboptimal cerebral blood flow may lead to brain injuries in preterm infants and other critically ill neonates. ...
    • Visuopathy of prematurity: is retinopathy just the tip of the iceberg? 

      Ingvaldsen, Sigrid Hegna; Morken, Tora Sund; Austeng, Dordi; Dammann, Olaf (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Background: Chronic brain pathology and pre-stroke cognitive impairment (PCI) is predictive of post-stroke dementia. The aim of the current study was to measure pre-stroke neurodegenerative and vascular disease burden found ...
