Retinopathy of Prematurity [PDF]

open access: possibleInternational Ophthalmology Clinics, 2010
Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) occurs due to abnormal proliferation of retinal vessels. The most important risk factors which predispose to development of ROP include oxygen therapy, anemia needing blood transfusion, sepsis and apnea. Very low birth weight neonates, those born at ≤ 32 week of gestation and other preterm neonates with risk factors ...

Retinopathy of Prematurity: A Global Perspective and Recent Developments.

Pediatrics, 2022
Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a significant cause of potentially preventable blindness in preterm infants worldwide. It is a disease caused by abnormal retinal vascularization that, if not detected and treated in a timely manner, can lead to ...

Retinopathy of prematurity [PDF]

open access: possibleIntensive Care Medicine, 1995
This review deals with retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), a disease characterized by retinovitreal neovascularization, eventually retinal detachment and blindness. Due to the increasing number of extremely premature newborns, it is becoming more frequent.

Retinopathy of Prematurity

Seminars in Ophthalmology, 2008
Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a rapidly evolving area of pediatric ophthalmology. Over the past decade, a new understanding of the pathophysiology of ROP has emerged. Advances in clinical research have lead to modifications in screening criteria and treatment guidelines for ROP.

Retinopathy of Prematurity

Critical Care Nursing Clinics of North America, 2009
This article briefly reviews the history of ROP followed by a discussion of the pathogenesis of this complex disorder. We describe the International Classification System for ROP and identify risk factors and screening recommendations. Finally, we discuss some of the measures that have been used in an attempt to both prevent and treat ROP.

RETINOPATHY OF PREMATURITY [PDF]

open access: possibleOphthalmology Clinics of North America, 2001
The majority of cases of ROP regress spontaneously, but better treatment methods are needed to prevent retinal detachment and other effects of ROP such as myopia. In the future, molecular mechanisms may be exploited to treat ROP.

Retinopathy of prematurity

Survey of Ophthalmology, 1988
Over the last decade major advances have been made in the understanding of the pathogenesis and evolution of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). The increased survival of very small premature infants in modern neonatal intensive care units has led to the resurgence of this potentially blinding disease.

Retinopathy of prematurity

Angiogenesis, 2007
Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a common blinding disease in children in the developed world despite current treatment, and is becoming increasingly prevalent in the developing world. ROP progresses in two phases. The first phase begins with delayed retinal vascular growth after birth and partial regression of existing vessels, followed by a second
