A commonly used classification system of germinal matrix hemorrhage is the sonographic grading system proposed by Papile: [3] [citation needed] grade I - hemorrhage is confined to the germinal matrix. grade II - intraventricular hemorrhage without ventricular dilatation; grade III - intraventricular hemorrhage with ventricular dilatation
772.11 Intraventricular hemorrhage grade I; 772.12 Intraventricular hemorrhage grade II; 772.13 Intraventricular hemorrhage grade III; 772.14 Intraventricular hemorrhage grade IV; 772.2 Subarachnoid hemorrhage of newborn; 772.3 Umbilical hemorrhage after birth; 772.4 Gastrointestinal hemorrhage of fetus or newborn; 772.5 Adrenal hemorrhage of ...
In infants, germinal matrix hemorrhage is associated with cerebral palsy, problems with cognition, and hydrocephalus. [7] With improved technological advances in science and medicine, survival for preterm infants with this type of neurological disorder has improved and less preterm infants with germinal matrix hemorrhage have severe cerebral ...
The germinal matrix is the source of both neurons and glial cells and is most active between 8 and 28 weeks gestation. It is a fragile portion of the brain that may be damaged leading to a germinal matrix hemorrhage (grade 1 intraventricular hemorrhage). Location/anatomy: The germinal matrix is next to the lateral ventricles (the "inside" of ...
A germinal matrix hemorrhage is bleeding into the brain of premature infants caused by the rupture of fragile blood vessels within the germinal matrix of premature babies. [18] The germinal matrix is a highly vascularized area within an unborn infant's brain from which brain cells, including neurons and glial cells, originate.
Forrest's classification is instrumental when stratifying patients with upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage into high and low risk categories for mortality.It is also a significant method of prediction of the risk of rebleeding and very often is used for evaluation of the endoscopic intervention modalities.

In Grade I, widespread axonal damage is present but no focal abnormalities are seen. In Grade II, damage found in Grade I is present in addition to focal abnormalities, especially in the corpus callosum. Grade III damage encompasses both Grades I and II plus rostral brain stem injury and often tears in the tissue. [36]
