Adjustment for population, maternal and infant factors resulted in a small reduction in the overall variation (ranging from 0.65 to 1.30).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Conclusion:<\/strong> There is wide variation in the rates of moderate to severe neurodevelopmental impairment for VPT cohorts across Europe, much of which persists following adjustment for known population, maternal and infant factors. Further work is needed to investigate whether other factors including quality of care and evidence-based practice have an effect on neurodevelopmental outcomes for these children.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Arch Dis Child Fetal Neonatal Ed. 2020 Jul;105(4):350-356. doi: 10.1136\/archdischild-2019-317418.
