Cerebral NIRS oximetry vs no cerebral NIRS oximetry

Retinopathy of prematurity, any or severe (stage ≥ III) · patients with preventing morbidity and mortality in very preterm infants

It is very uncertain whether cerebral NIRS oximetry changes retinopathy of prematurity, any or severe (stage ≥ III) compared with no cerebral NIRS oximetry (very low certainty).
