متن کاملAcute bilirubin encephalopathy in healthy term neonates requiring exchange transfusion
Intruduction: There is a growing concern about an increasing bilirubin-induced neurological dysfunction (BIND) in healthy term neonates with no evidence of hemolytic disease or other risk factors. This study was done to determine the incidence of BIND in otherwise healthy, breast-fed newborn term infants without hemolysis who underwent exchange transfusion. Methods: This study was conducted i...
متن کامل[Predictive value of color Doppler neuro-sonography for the development of neurological sequels in newborn infants with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy].
BACKGROUND/AIM The use of color Doppler neurosonography (cD-US) allows simultaneous examination of parenchymal and vascular cerebral structures. Evaluation of cerebral blood flow velocities (CBFV) and vascular resistance are important in assessment of cerebral circulation in neonates with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). The aim of this study was to evaluate the predictive value of cD-US ...
متن کاملSerum copeptin and neuron specific enolase are markers of neonatal distress and long-term neurodevelopmental outcome
The objective of this study was to evaluate the early changes in serial serum levels of copeptin and neuron-specific enolase (NSE) in neonates diagnosed with birth asphyxia, and to determine whether these biomarkers measured in the first 168 hours after birth are predictive of long-term neurodevelopmental outcome. Copeptin and NSE levels were measured from serum samples collected 6, 12, 24, 48,...
