Effect of Indomethacin onCerebral Blood Flow Velocities inVery Low Birth Weight Neonateswith a Patent Ductus Arteriosus
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The effect of repeated doses of indomethacin on mean peak velocity (MPV) and time-averaged mean velocity in the middle cerebral artery was assessed in 10 ventilated neonates with a patent ductus arteriosus using colour/duplex Doppler technique prior to, and 10, 30, and 120 min after the first and the third dose. Velocities were significantly reduced up to 120 min after the first dose. The third dose resulted in a significant reduction in MPV at 10 and 30 min following treatment. This reduction was half of that observed after the first dose. Systemic blood pressure (BP) and heart rate did not change significantly after each separate dose. However, by the third dose, mean and diastolic BP were significantly increased from pretreatment levels. The attenuated response of cerebral blood flow (CBF) velocities to the third dose of indomethacin compared with the first dose is probably related to altered haemodynamics. Indomethacin should be used cautiously in infants with other conditions which are known to decrease CBF such as hypotension, hypocarbia and polycythaemia.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
