BEDSIDE VS CONVENTIONAL OPERATING ROOM SURGERY IN CRITICALLY ILL NEWBORNS: SYSTEMATIC REVIEW AND META-ANALYSIS

Abstract

Surgical procedures in critically ill neonates are typically performed in the operating room, though transferring unstable patients from the NICU carries risks such as hypothermia and clinical deterioration. Bedside surgery in the NICU has emerged as an alternative for patients unfit for transport. This systematic review and meta-analysis compared perioperative outcomes of bedside versus operating room surgery in neonates.
