Diagnosis can be confirmed by the presence of blood inside the ventricles on CT. Infants In term and preterm infants with<unk> , the amount of bleeding varies.<unk>  is often described in four grades: * Grade I - bleeding occurs just in the germinal matrix * Grade II - bleeding also occurs inside the ventricles, but they are not enlarged * Grade III - ventricles are enlarged by the accumulated blood * Grade IV - bleeding extends into the brain tissue around the ventricles Grades I and II are most common, and often there are no further complications. Grades III and IV are the most serious and may result in long-term brain injury to the infant. After a grade III or IV<unk> , blood clots may form which can block the flow of cerebrospinal fluid, leading to increased fluid in the brain (hydrocephalus).
