Therapeutic hypothermia in neonatal asphyxia
Hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy is a serious condition affecting newborn infants which can result in death and disability. There is now strong clinical evidence that moderate post-asphyxial total body cooling or hypothermia in full term neonates results in long-term neuroprotection, allowing us to proclaim this innovative therapy as "standard of care." The treatment is a time-critical emergency...
متن کاملNeonatal encephalopathy: treatment with hypothermia.
In this article, the role of hypothermia and neuroprotection for neonatal encephalopathy will be discussed. The incidence of encephalopathy due to hypoxia ischemia as well as the pathophysiology will be presented. The diagnosis of encephalopathy in full-term neonates will be discussed. The current management of brain injury that occurs with hypoxia ischemia and the role of hypothermia in preven...
متن کاملModerate hypothermia in neonatal encephalopathy: efficacy outcomes.
Therapeutic hypothermia holds promise as a rescue neuroprotective strategy for hypoxic-ischemic injury, but the incidence of severe neurologic sequelae with hypothermia is unknown in encephalopathic neonates who present shortly after birth. This study reports a multicenter, randomized, controlled, pilot trial of moderate systemic hypothermia (33 degrees C) vs normothermia (37 degrees C) for 48 ...
متن کاملHypothermia in neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE).
Neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) significantly affects neurodevelopment in infants and is also considered as an important cause of neonatal deaths worldwide. Medical research is being focused worldwide for the development of therapeutic avenues but it is still managed by supportive care. The latest studies in the above field have shown the efficacy of prolonged cooling of neonate'...
متن کاملNeonatal hypothermia in low-resource settings.
Hypothermia among newborns is considered an important contributor to neonatal morbidity and mortality in low-resource settings. However, in these settings only limited progress has been made towards understanding the risk of mortality after hypothermia, describing how this relationship is dependent on both the degree or severity of exposure and the gestational age and weight status of the baby,...
