简要总结
The primary purpose of this study is to serve as a pilot study of the EFIL device treatment feasibility of IVH grades 3,4 to guide development of a larger trial. Primary outcomes will assess the following: safety of intervention, recruitment and consent process, acceptability of intervention by parents, retention rates, selection of most appropriate outcome measures, provide sample size estimates for a larger trial, increase the researchers' experience with the study intervention. A complete list of objectives and aims are listed under "Objectives". This study hopes to treat 12-24 neonates using 650nm light of irradiance 10mW/cm2 for 5 minutes twice a day each day for 12 days. We will also call the parents at 6 months and 12 months to track developmental milestones.

研究组 & 干预措施
Non-blinded, open label experimental arm
The experimental arm will be administered treated with the study device. It will be 10 mW/cm^2 of 650nm laser through use of a novel laser device given for 5 minutes twice daily for 12 days.
干预措施: Low Level Laser Therapy for Intraventricular Hemorrhage of Prematurity (Device)
结局指标
主要结局
Hemorrhage Resorption Rate
时间窗: Hemorrhage resorption rate tracking starts from date of identified intraventricular hemorrhage on head ultrasound (usually within 1 week of life) and head ultrasounds weekly up to 4 months old
Measure rate at which neonate intraventricular hemorrhage is resorbed via serial head ultrasounds
Neurosurgical Interventions
时间窗: Number of neurosurgical interventions starts at birth and continues up to 4 months old
number of patients requiring neurosurgical intervention
Anterior Horn Width
时间窗: Ventricle volume tracking starts from date of identified intraventricular hemorrhage on head ultrasound (within 1 week of life) performed through weekly head ultrasounds up to 4 months old
Measure rate at which neonate intracranial pressure changes using anterior horn width (mm) derived from serial head ultrasounds.
Neurodevelopmental Outcomes at 6 months and 12 months of age
时间窗: Two time points at 6 months of age and 12 months of age
A phone survey will be conducted inquiring which developmental milestones have been met at 6 months (i.e., sitting independently, reaching to grab toys, knows familiar people, takes turns making sounds with care giver) and 12 months (plays interactive games, says mama/dada, looks for hidden objects, cruises, pincer grasp)
Ventricular Index
时间窗: Ventricle volume tracking starts from date of identified intraventricular hemorrhage on head ultrasound (within 1 week of life); and subsequent weekly head ultrasounds performed up to 4 months old
Measure rate at which neonate intracranial pressure changes using ventricular index (mm) derived from serial head ultrasounds.
Head Circumference
时间窗: Head Circumference tracking starts from birth and is performed daily up to 4 months old
Measure rate at which neonate intracranial pressure changes via head circumference (cm).
