Session
Description: This symposium is presented in honor of the late Dr. Taeun Chang, a major contributor to the field of neonatal neurology. The symposium will cover a topic she championed during her career, with speakers whose work was deeply influenced by her wisdom, collegiality, and mentorship. Speakers will address the latest knowledge regarding indications for and utility of neuromonitoring tools used in the neonatal intensive care unit for the care of newborns at risk for brain injury, including continuous electroencephalography (EEG), amplitude-integrated EEG (aEEG), and near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). Controversies regarding the use of these tools will be discussed.
