School-age outcomes following a randomized controlled trial of magnesium sulfate for neuroprotection of preterm infants

Clément Chollat et al. J Pediatr. 2014 Aug.

Abstract

In a French randomized trial, children at school-age demonstrated no evidence of harm from fetal exposure to MgSO4 before very preterm birth. Motor dysfunction/death, qualitative behavioral disorders, cognitive difficulties, school grade repetition, and education services were decreased in the children exposed to MgSO4, although the differences were not significant.

Trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT00120588.
