Does Placenta Pathology Predict Outcome of Neonates With Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy?"

September 20, 2017 updated by: University Children's Hospital, Zurich
The histology of the placenta of newborn infants with perinatal asphyxia and hypoxic-ischaemic encephalopathy is analysed. There will be an evaluation if placenta could be a biomarker for neurodevelopmental outcome at 18-24 months of age.
