Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: All Very preterm neonates born before 30 weeks of gestation, requiring non-invasive respiratory support and hemodynamically stable

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Neonates born with major congenital anomaly, pre-existing neurological morbidities and hydrops

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To estimate the changes in cerebral hemodynamics in very preterm neonates on non-invasive respiratory support during KMC using transcranial doppler ultrasonography in the first 3 days of its initiation.Timepoint: From the starting of the initiation of KMC to the 2 consecutive days

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. To assess the changes in vital physiological parameters like heart rate, saturations and mean blood pressure before and after KMC during the first 3 days of initiation. 2) To analyze the regional cerebral oxygenation changes as measured by Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) during the first 3 days of its initiation.Timepoint: From the starting of the initiation of KMC to the 2 consecutive days
