Mechanical Ventilation, Retinal Avascularity and Rate of Vascularisation: A Triad of Predictors for Retinopathy of Prematurity Treatment.

Published in: Journal of personalized medicine (2024)

A greater DMV, a broad avascular area of the temporal retina at the first binocular screening and slow retinal vascularisation strongly predict the need for ROP treatment. The predictive model we describe must be validated externally in other centres.
