Abstract
Presence of funisitis was significantly and independently associated with increased risk of abnormal NHS results, while administration of antenatal corticosteroids was related to a normal NHS result. These findings support the hypothesis that a systemic fetal inflammatory response, manifested as funisitis, might play a role in the pathogenesis of SNHL in preterm neonates.
