Whole-body hypothermia within hours of birth failed to improve outcomes in preterm infants less than 36 weeks' gestational age with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, a randomized clinical trial found.

Results: The incidence of HIE was 1.088 per 1000 live births, and 0.49 per 1000 for moderate and severe HIE. The incidence showed a downward linear trend throughout the study period (s=-5.37 ...

Inclusion criteria, method of cooling as well as target temperatures, and method and timing of warming have now been established and adopted as the standard treatment of HIE (see Table 3).

Perinatal asphyxia, also known as hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), affects roughly 2-3 per 1,000 live births in the ...
