Key Points Question Is neonatal hypoglycemia associated with neurocognitive outcomes in otherwise well late preterm and full-term term neonates born at risk of hypoglycemia? Findings In this cohort study of 1197 participants in a randomized clinical trial, the prevalence of neurosensory impairment at 2 years was significantly higher in those who experienced hypoglycemia than in those who did not (23% vs 18%). The risk was greater in children who experienced severe episodes (28%). Meaning The findings of this study suggest that children who experienced neonatal hypoglycemia are at increased risk of neurosensory impairment at corrected age 2 years, even if screened and treated to maintain blood glucose concentrations greater than or equal to 47 mg/dL.
