The neonatal ICU graduate: Part I. Common problems
Abstract
Premature infants often have serious problems, such as anemia, retinopathy, hearing loss and apnea, before and after discharge from the neonatal intensive care unit. Many of these complications can have serious health consequences, including developmental abnormalities. Awareness of these problems is a primary step in follow-up care for these infants.
