Impact of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy on neonatal outcomes among infants born at 24⁺⁰-31⁺⁶ weeks' gestation in China: A multicenter cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To describe the rate of hypertensive disorder of pregnancy (HDP) among mothers of very preterm infants (VPIs) admitted to Chinese neonatal intensive care units (NICUs), and to investigate the relationship between HDP and the outcomes of VPIs.

Study design

Cohort study of all VPIs born at a gestational age of 24⁺⁰-31⁺⁶ weeks and admitted to 57 tertiary NICUs of the Chinese Neonatal Network (CHNN) in 2019. Infants with severe congenital anomalies or missing maternal HDP information were excluded.
