NCT03550612

Brief Summary

Perinatal asphyxia is common cause of acquired neonatal brain injury in neonates associated with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, leading to long-term neurologic complication or death. In 2000, the neonatal mortality rate in Egypt was found to be 25 per 1000 live birth. In this survey, hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy accounts for 18% of neonatal mortality and is the second most common cause of neonatal death.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Compare results of cranial ultrasound with Magnetic resonant imaging to improve quality of cranial ultrasound to early diagnosis of hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy

    Cranial ultrasound results will be analysed regards (periventricular - interventricular haemorrhage-Ventricular size-basal ganglia, thalamus and cerebellum affection) and Doppler (peak systolic flow velocity-end diastolic peak flow velocity-mean velocity and resistance index).magnetic resonant imaging performed at term gestation results will be analysed in details and classified according to global score of magnetic resonant imaging injury (mild, moderate and severe injury) and compare it with results of cranial ultrasound

    3 weeks age.

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Detect incidence of intracranial haemorrhage in asphyxiated newborn treated by therapeutic hypothermia.

    12 month

  • Detection of associated infection in asphyxiated newborn treated by therapeutic hypothermia.

    1 month

  • Ability of cranial ultrasound in early diagnosis of intracranial haemorrhage.

    1 month age

  • Compare results of diagnostic methods of hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy with neurodevelopmental study of the baby at 12 month

    12 month age

Study Arms (1)

Neonates with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy

Cranial ultrasound,Magnetic resonant imaging and amplitude integrated encephalogram performed to All neonates with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy in period between January 2010 to December 2015.

Diagnostic Test: magnetic resonant imaging,cranial ultrasound.Diagnostic Test: Amplitude integrated electroencephalogram

Interventions

Magnetic resonant image performed at term gestation neonate suffer of hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy and its results will be analysed in details and classified according to global score of magnetic resonant image injury.Cranial ultrasound results will be analysed regards (periventricular - interventricular haemorrhage-Ventricular size-basal ganglia, thalamus and cerebellum affection) and Doppler (peak systolic flow velocity-end diastolic peak flow velocity-mean velocity and resistance index).Cerebral bleeding will be diagnosed be cranial ultrasound and confirmed be standard magnetic resonant image in term equivalent age.

Neonates with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy

Amplitude integrated electroencephalogram before and during cooling will be assessed and classified according to Hellstrom Westas et al 2006 and it will be compared with the results of cranial ultrasound and magnetic resonant imaging. Neurodevelopment study at 12 and 14 month age using Bayley ɪɪɪ score will be compared with the results of cranial ultrasound,magnetic resonant imaging and Amplitude integrated electroencephalogram.

Sampling MethodProbability Sample
Study Population

all neonates with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy treated by therapeutic hypothermia 6 hours after birth in period between January 2010 to December 2015.One hundred cases will be included in the study as fifteen to twenty case of HIE admitted for therapeutic hypothermia treatment at the hospital every year.

You may qualify if:

  • \>36 weeks gestational age babies undergoes therapeutic hypothermia within 6 hours after birth after fulfilling the cooling criteria:
  • Apgar score ≤ 5 at 10 minutes after birth.
  • Need resuscitation 10 minutes after birth.
  • Acidosis PH≤7 at 60 minutes.
  • Base deficit ≥16 mmoL ∕ L at 60 minutes.

You may not qualify if:

  • Birth weight ≤1.8kg.
  • Congenital and genetic conditions affect neurodevelopment.
