January 28, 200719 yr comment_328 Hallo. I have a question. Do You use growth charts for preterms on NICUs? How about children 23-26 weeks? Send Sticky Note
January 30, 200719 yr We have a reference curve also for preterm infants, it is integrated in our computerized patient record system. The reference to the growth charts: Acta Paed (suppl) 1994;399:64-70. I attach two examples, one for a girl and one for a boy.
January 30, 200719 yr comment_331 Thank You very much. We use such charts for "older":) preterms (26 and more). For younger we used to notice the weihgt only. But know we're going to notice growth parametters of every preterm infant. Send Sticky Note
