AIM The aim of the study was to determine whether regional cerebral tissue oxygen saturation (rcSO2) and fractional tissue oxygen extraction (FTOE), using near-infrared spectroscopy, are associated with neurodevelopmental outcome of preterm infants. METHOD We measured rcSO2 on days 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, and 15 after birth in 83 preterm infants (
