Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is a major cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality. Electroencephalography (EEG) and brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are frequently performed in these infants, but the prognostic value of the combined use of EEG and MRI needs additional exploration. The purpose of this study was to investigate, in neonates with HIE, the role of early EEG and conventional MRI in the prediction of infants at risk for persistent encephalopathy at 18 months of age. Thirty-four term infants with HIE were enrolled in this prospective study. EEG was recorded within the first 72 hours after birth and a brain MRI scan was done between 1 and 4 weeks of age. Denver Developmental Screening Test II was performed at 6, 12, and 18 months of age. Three infants (9%) had mild HIE, 21 infants (62%) had moderate HIE, and 10 infants (29%) had severe HIE. The EEG background was normal, moderately, severely, and extremely discontinuous in eight (24%), three (9%), sixteen (47%), and seven (20%) neonates, respectively. EEG background activities correlated significantly with HIE severity (p = 0.0001). MRI findings significantly correlated with EEG background (p = 0.001). Normal MRI scans and minimal basal ganglia lesions were always associated with normal EEG background. Patients with severe basal ganglia and thalamic lesions in MRI (n = 2) had extreme discontinuous EEG background. For the prediction of poor outcomes, abnormal EEG background activity had a sensitivity (Sn) = 100%, a specificity (Sp) = 100%, positive predictive value (PPV) = 100%, and negative predictive value (NPV) = 100%, whereas values of abnormal MRI scans were Sn of 100%, Sp = 43%, PPV = 82%, and NPV=100%. EEG background activity is the best element to predict abnormal outcomes. Severe basal ganglia and thalamic injuries on MRI scans are associated with poor outcomes. Otherwise, MRI does not contribute to the prediction of outcomes at 18 months of age. 相似文献

AIM: To assess whether plasma creatine kinase brain isoenzyme (CKBB) levels or Sarnat scores are more accurate for prediction of poor neurological outcome in babies with suspected birth asphyxia. METHODS: In a retrospective study of 97 babies CKBB levels were compared to the presence of severe hypoxic ischaemic encephalopathy (HIE) as a predictive test for these outcomes: developmental delay, cerebral palsy, visual problems, deafness or death from perinatal asphyxia. The tests were compared using positive predictive values (PPV) and likelihood ratios (LR) with confidence intervals (CI). RESULTS: 3 babies had died from perinatal asphyxia and 14 survivors were found to have neurological or developmental problems. CKBB was elevated in babies with severe HIE (p = 0.0004). A receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve showed the optimal discriminating value for CKBB to be 21 IU/L but the CKBB was a poor predictive test. For prediction of adverse outcome: CKBB > 21 sensitivity 76%, specificity 40%, PPV 21% and LR 1.3 (95% CI 0.8-1.7). Severe HIE sensitivity 53%, specificity 95%, PPV 69% and LR 10.6 (95% CI 3.8-29.2). CONCLUSION: CKBB is elevated following birth asphyxia but is a poor predictor of adverse neurological outcome. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES: To compare the predictive value of pH, base deficit and lactate for the occurrence of moderate-to-severe hypoxic ischaemic encephalopathy (HIE) and systemic complications of asphyxia in term infants with intrapartum asphyxia. STUDY DESIGN: We retrospectively reviewed the records of 61 full-term neonates (> or =37 weeks gestation) suspected of having suffered from a significant degree of intrapartum asphyxia from a period of January 1997 to December 2001.The clinical signs of HIE, if any, were categorized using Sarnat and Sarnat classification as mild (stage 1), moderate (stage 2) or severe (stage 3). Base deficit, pH and plasma lactate levels were measured from indwelling arterial catheters within 1 hour after birth and thereafter alongwith every blood gas measurement. The results were correlated with the subsequent presence or absence of moderate-to-severe HIE by computing receiver operating characteristic curves. RESULTS: The initial lactate levels were significantly higher (p=0.001) in neonates with moderate-to-severe HIE (mean+/-SD=11.09+/-4.6) as compared to those with mild or no HIE (mean+/-SD=7.1+/-4.7). Also, the lactate levels took longer to normalize in these babies. A plasma lactate concentration >7.5+/-mmol/l was associated with moderate-or-severe HIE with a sensitivity of 94% and specificity of 67%. The sensitivity and negative predictive value of lactate was greater than that of the pH or base deficit. CONCLUSIONS: The highest recorded lactate level in the first hour of life and serial measurements of lactate are important predictors of moderate-to-severe HIE. 相似文献

Objectives.?Hypoxic-ischemic cerebral injury due to perinatal asphyxia is an important cause of neonatal mortality and morbidity. To predict who will survive or die due to this disorder still remains obscure. The aim of this study is to evaluate the predictive value of myocardial involvement in the assessment of mortality for the neonates with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE).Patients and methods.?The study included 34 term newborns fulfilling the diagnostic criteria for HIE and staged according to Sarnat and Sarnat classification. To assess the myocardial involvement, electrocardiogram (ECG) and echocardiogram (Echo) were performed in the first 24–48 h of life. In addition, serum Troponin I and creatine kinase-myocardial band (CK-MB) were measured at delivery and postnatal day 3.Results.?Of the 34 cases, 19 (55.9%) were stage in 1, 9 were in (26.4%) stage 2 and 6 (17.6%) were in stage 3 HIE. Nine (26.4%) patients died of the disease. Thirteen patients (38.2%) showed ECG findings related to perinatal asphyxia. Only one patient had mild Echo changes. Higher Troponin I level was a significant predictor of mortality, whereas CK-MB did not show any significant predicting value. Troponin I test showed 33% sensitivity and 80% specificity in predicting mortality. In addition, the sensitivity and specificity of ECG as a predictor of mortality were 77 and 76%, respectively.Conclusion.?This study highlights the significance of monitoring cardiac functions in newborns with HIE. ECG changes and serum Troponin I level at 72 h after birth are likely to have significant predictive value in the assessment of mortality in HIE. Further studies will provide additional data for the long-term prognostic value of cardiac functions in this disorder. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to determine the efficacy of mild hypothermia via selective head cooling as a neuroprotective therapy in term infants with perinatal asphyxia. STUDY DESIGN: Full-term newborns who had 5 min Apgar scores <6, first arterial blood gas pH<7.10 or BD>15 mEq/l, and with the clinical signs of encephalopathy were enrolled within 6 h after birth. Patients were randomized to receive mild hypothermia treatment via selective head cooling for a total of 72 h or receive routine treatment as a control. Brain hypoxic-ischemic injury was quantified based on the head computed tomographic scan (CT scan) at postnatal age 5-7 days and a Neonatal Behavioral Neurological Assessment (NBNA) score at 7-10 days of life. RESULTS: A total of 58 patients (30 hypothermia, 28 control) completed the study. Hypothermia was well tolerated in this study and attenuated the hypoxic-ischemic brain injury due to perinatal asphyxia. Head CT scan demonstrated moderate to severe hypoxic-ischemic changes in only 4/30 cases from the hypothermic group. In contrast, 18/28 cases in the control group showed moderate to severe hypoxic-ischemic changes (chi (2)=15.97, P<0.01). Brain hypothermia also significantly improved the NBNA score (32+/-2 in the hypothermic group vs 28+/-3 in the control group, P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that selective head cooling may be used as a neuroprotective therapy in term neonates with perinatal asphyxia. A long-term follow-up study is needed to further validate the results of this study. 相似文献

Objective: Nucleated-red-blood-cells (NRBC) count in umbilical cord of newborns is been suggested as a sign of birth asphyxia. The present study was conducted to explore the value of NRBC count in prognosis of asphyxiated neonates.Methods: Sixty-three neonates with asphyxia were followed up for two years. Maternal and neonatal information was recorded follow by clinical and laboratory evaluation. NRBC-level was determined per 100 white-blood-cells (WBC). After discharge, follow-up of asphyxiated infants was performed using Denver II test at 6, 12, 18 and 24 months. Neonates were divided into two groups, with favorable and unfavorable outcome based on developmental delay or death.Results: We observed that NRBC count with more than 11 per 100 WBC, had sensitivity of 85% and specificity of 90% in predicting complications of asphyxia, while in absolute NRBC count with more than 1554, the sensitivity and specificity were 85% and of 87%, respectively. Combination of NRBC?+?HIE (hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy) grade had a high-predictive power for determining the prognosis of asphyxia in neonates.Conclusion: We demonstrate that NRBC/100 WBC and absolute NRCB count can be used as prognostic marker for neonatal asphyxia, which in combination with the severity of asphyxia could indicate high infant mortality, and complications of asphyxia. Further studies in a larger and multi center setting trail are warranted to investigate the value of NRBC and HIE in asphyxiate term infants. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: Amplitude-integrated electroencephalography (aEEG) has been used adjunctively to identify infants suitable for hypothermic neuroprotection following severe intrapartum asphyxia. To determine whether an early aEEG predicts short-term adverse outcome in infants with significant hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) evaluated for hypothermic neuroprotection. STUDY DESIGN: The aEEG recordings were obtained within 6 h of birth in infants >or=36 weeks' gestational age during evaluation for possible selective head or whole-body cooling. Recordings were subsequently re-evaluated for both background pattern and voltage abnormalities by a certified reader masked to clinical history and brain-oriented interventions. All infants with moderate or severe HIE evaluated for hypothermic neuroprotection also underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain at a median postnatal age of 7 days. The predictive value using the aEEG for determining short-term dichotomous outcomes, defined as early death related to HIE, or a characteristic pattern of abnormalities consistent with hypoxic-ischemic injury on the MRI brain scans was assessed. RESULT: Fifty-four infants with moderate or severe HIE were evaluated with aEEG for hypothermic neuroprotection; 34 infants received selective head cooling, 12 infants underwent total body cooling and 8 infants were not cooled. Outcome data, available for 46 of the 54 infants, revealed a poor correlation between the early aEEG and short-term adverse outcomes, with a sensitivity of 54.8% and negative predictive value (NPV) of only 44%. CONCLUSION: Because of the poor NPV of an early aEEG for a short-term adverse outcome, its use as an 'additional selection criterion' for hypothermic neuroprotection may not be appropriate. 相似文献
