Urinary Lactate-To-Creatinine Ratio during the First Days of Life Correlates with the Degree of Brain Damage in Premature Infants
An increased ULCR during the first 3 DOLs in patients with a GBAS moderate + severe suggest an energy catastrophe that may play a role in the development of premature brain injury. Serial measurement of the ULCR during the first DOLs may help in the early identification of premature infants at risk for moderate + severe brain damage.
