Abstract
This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (Intervention). The objectives are as follows: To review and summarise the existing evidence of the relationship between maternal methylxanthine (including caffeine) consumption (or by any other method of administration) versus no intervention, placebo or a different methylxanthine, before birth with the intention to influence outcomes in preterm newborns, with particular focus on cardiorespiratory adaptation at birth and long-term neurodevelopmental outcomes.
