Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Primary end point(s): Primary Endpoints To investigate cortical hemodynamic responses, measured with near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), in relation to validated pain scores in newborn infants requiring intensive care treatment. Secondary Endpoints 1. To investigate cortical hemodynamic responses (NIRS) in relation to blood levels of stress hormones. 2. To investigate the feasibility of the pilot study protocol in preparation for the main clinical study. ;Main Objective: Evaluate cortical and hormonal responses to pain management with morphine ;Secondary Objective: to perform a feasibility study as preparation for the main clinical study in this EU funded programme.
