Evaluation of Systemic Hypothermia Initiated After 6 Hours of Age in Infants ≥36 Weeks Gestation With Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy: A Bayesian Evaluation. A Protocol for the NICHD Neonatal Research Network
Inclusion Criteria:
- Infants born at 36 0/7ths weeks gestational age or greater (by best obstetrical
estimate)
- Postnatal age between 6 and 24 hours following birth
- Infants with a high probability of acute hemodynamic compromise, such as those with:
- An acute perinatal event (abruptio placenta, cord prolapse, severe FHR
abnormality)
- An Apgar score ≤ 5 at 10 minutes
- Continued need for ventilation initiated at birth for at least 10 minutes
- Cord pH or first postnatal blood gas pH at ≤ 1 hour of ≤ 7.0
- Base deficit on cord gas or first postnatal blood gas at ≤ 1 hour of ≥ 16 mEq/L
- Infants matching the above criteria who also have an abnormal neurological exam
showing the presence of moderate or severe encephalopathy
- Infants whose parents/legal guardians have provided consent for enrollment.
NOTE: These inclusion criteria are identical to the NICHD Neonatal Research Network's 2005
Hypothermia study (see links below), except for the time of entry (6-24 hours vs. < 6 hours
of age).
Exclusion Criteria:
- Any infant with a core body temperature (axilla, rectal) less than 34.0°C for greater
than 1 hour
- Presence of a known anomaly or chromosomal aberration
- Birth weight < 1,800 grams
- Infant in extremis
- Infants whose parents/legal guardians or attending physician refuse consent
