Figure 1

Flow diagram of eligible (total 193), excluded (total 66), and included (total 127) infants in the EA (A) and the LA (B) groups, and subsequent division of infants within the EA and LA groups based on intervention requirement. Type of first and subsequent interventions is also shown. *A ventricular reservoir was placed after VP shunt as temporary measure in case of shunt dysfunction. EA = early approach; LA = late approach; LP = lumbar puncture; VP = ventriculoperitoneal.
