Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Assessment of the potential neuroprotective effect of magnesium sulphate and caffeine in improvement of the neurological outcome of hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy in Assuit university hospital.

    Assesment of neuroprotective effect of magnesium sulphate and caffeine by : 1. Determine the benefit of magnesium sulphate and caffeine on perinatal asphyxia. 2. Determine the effect of magnesium sulphate and caffeine on neurological outcome in severe perinatal Asphyxia. 3. Determine the effect of magnesium sulphate and caffeine on reduction of duration of Admission/hospitalization.

Study Population

Neonates with Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy (HIE) .Encephalopathy in neonates is broadly defined brain dysfunction in a newborn manifesting as alteration in mental status and abnormal neurologic examination. Neonatal encephalopathy (NE) may result from acute or chronic hypoxic-ischemic injury, brain malformations, vascular injuries (including stroke), inborn errors of metabolism, and other causes. Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is a specific diagnosis and applies only when a neonate has encephalopathy that is known or highly suspected to be due to a hypoxic-ischemic event.

You may qualify if:

  • Neonates with suspected perinatal asphyxia APGAR score \< 3 at 5 min.
  • Neonates whose mother did not receive MgSO4 or caffeine

You may not qualify if:

  • Neonates with Apgar's score \> 3 at 5 min
  • Neonates with congenital malformations
  • Neonates whose mother had general anasthesia
