Survivors following very premature birth (i.e., ≤ 32 weeks gestational age) remain at high risk for neurodevelopmental impairments. Recent advances in deep learning techniques have made it possible to aid the early diagnosis and prognosis of neurodev...

Photoplethysmography imaging (PPGI) for non-contact monitoring of preterm infants in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) is a promising technology, as it could reduce medical adhesive-related skin injuries and associated complications. For practi...
EEG is the gold standard for seizure detection in the newborn infant, but EEG interpretation in the preterm group is particularly challenging; trained experts are scarce and the task of interpreting EEG in real-time is arduous. Preterm infants are re...
To train, evaluate, and validate the application of a deep learning framework in three-dimensional ultrasound (3D US) for the automatic segmentation of ventricular volume in preterm infants with post haemorrhagic ventricular dilatation (PHVD). We tra...
To describe a database of longitudinally graded telemedicine retinal images to be used as a comparator for future studies assessing grader recall bias and ability to detect typical progression (e.g. International Classification of Retinopathy of Prem...
IMPORTANCE: A retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) diagnosis currently relies on indirect ophthalmoscopy assessed by experienced ophthalmologists. A deep learning algorithm based on retinal images may facilitate early detection and timely treatment of RO...
Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a potentially blinding disorder seen in low birth weight preterm infants. In India, the burden of ROP is high, with nearly 200,000 premature infants at risk. Early detection through screening and treatment can prev...
Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) of fetal brain is challenged by frequent fetal motion and signal to noise ratio that is much lower than non-fetal imaging. As a result, accurate and robust parameter estimation in fetal DW-MRI re...
Despite the many comorbidities and high mortality rate in preterm infants with patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), therapeutic strategies vary depending on the clinical setting, and most studies of the related risk factors are based on small sample popul...

This study was designed to test if heart rate variability (HRV) data from preterm and full-term infants could be used to estimate their functional maturational age (FMA), using a machine learning model. We propose that the FMA, and its deviation from...
