Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1. Identify the causes and etiologies associated with neurological insults in the brain resulting in stillbirths and neonatal deaths using the MITS approach 2. Identify patterns of brain injury in preterm versus neonates with special reference to pathogenetic pathways in white matter injury in preterm babies using immunohistochemical markers. Timepoint: Death—
