Introduction
Because advances in preterm neonatal survival have overtaken advances in preterm birth prevention, the impact of long-term problems on these survivors is becoming more well recognised. Extreme prematurity's neurologic implications range from moderate behavioural and cognitive abnormalities to severe impairment. The goal of perinatal neuroprotection is to reduce these effects. Let's discuss about how we can make a difference with new and revolutionary INDIA EBUS (Individual Newborn Developmental Intervention Application – Evidence-based & Ultra SMART).
