PEDI-REAVASC Resonance Imaging of Infants With Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy After Hypothermia Treatment. (PEDI-REAVASC)

Quantitative Assessment of Cerebral Vascular Reactivity by Resting Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Infants With Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy After Hypothermia Treatment: Diagnostic and Prognostic Implications.

This study is a prospective, observational, single-center study to assess the correlation between rs-fMRI measures and clinical measures of standard MRI, NIRS, EEG and clinical scores.

The target population was neonates with HIE referred to MRI after hypothermia treatment, which was initiated within 6 hours of birth, continued for 72 hours and followed by a slow rewarming period of 6-12 hours.

A one-year clinical and imaging follow-up is planned. As the aim of the present study is to assess the predictiveness of the outcome one year after the HIE event, no follow-up is planned.
