Tereshchenko A.V., Trifanenkova I.G., Sidorova Y.A., Panamareva S.V. PATTERN RETINAL PHOTOCOAGULATION FOR ACTIVE STAGES OF RETINOPATHY OF PREMATURITYThe article is aimed to develop a differentiated approach to laser treatment for active stages of retinopathy of prematurity using pattern retinal photocoagulation and evaluate its effectiveness. The study was conducted at 1158 eyes 613 premature infants. In the main group pattern retinal photocoagulation (Pascal) was performed, in the control — in single pulse regime. Pattern photocoagulation advantages as compared with standard are the significant reduction in the duration of the intervention (not less than 2 times) and high dosage of impact.Key words: retinopathy of prematurity, aggressive posterior retinopathy of prematurity, pattern retinal photocoagulation, differentiated approach.
