RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate variations in management of therapeutic hypothermia (TH) for neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) among international clinical sites and to identify areas for harmonization. STUDY DESIGN: An electronic survey was sent to Children's Hospitals Neonatal Consortium site sponsors, Canadian Neonatal Network site investigators, members of the Newborn Brain Society, and American Academy of Pediatrics Neonatology chiefs. RESULTS: One hundred five sites responded, with most from high-income regions (n = 95). Groupings were adapted from the United Nations regional groups: US (n = 52 sites); Canada (n = 20); Western Europe and other states excluding Canada and US Group (WEOG, n = 18); and non-WEOG (central and eastern Europe, Asia, Africa, Latin America, and Caribbean, n = 15). Regional variations were seen in the eligibility criteria for TH, such as the minimum gestational age, grading of HIE severity, use of electroencephalography, and the frequency of providing TH for mild HIE. Active TH during transport varied among regions and was less likely in smaller volume sites. Amplitude-integrated electroencephalogram and/or continuous electroencephalogram to determine eligibility for TH was used by most sites in WEOG and non-WEOG but infrequently by the US and Canada Groups. For sedation during TH, morphine was most frequently used as first choice but there was relatively high (33%) use of dexmedetomidine in the US Group. Timing of brain magnetic resonance imaging and neurodevelopmental follow-up were variable. Neurodevelopmental follow occurred earlier and more frequently, although for a shorter duration, in the non-WEOG. CONCLUSIONS: We found significant variations in practices for TH for HIE across regions internationally. Future guidelines should incorporate resource availability in a global perspective.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To assess among a cohort of neonates with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) the association of pretreatment maximal hourly seizure burden and total seizure duration with successful response to initial antiseizure medication (ASM). STUDY DESIGN: This was a retrospective review of data collected from infants enrolled in the HEAL Trial (NCT02811263) between January 25, 2017, and October 9, 2019. We evaluated a cohort of neonates born at ≥36 weeks of gestation with moderate-to-severe HIE who underwent continuous electroencephalogram monitoring and had acute symptomatic seizures. Poisson regression analyzed associations between (1) pretreatment maximal hourly seizure burden, (2) pretreatment total seizure duration, (3) time from first seizure to initial ASM, and (4) successful response to initial ASM. RESULTS: Among 39 neonates meeting inclusion criteria, greater pretreatment maximal hourly seizure burden was associated with lower chance of successful response to initial ASM (adjusted relative risk for each 5-minute increase in seizure burden 0.83, 95% CI 0.69-0.99). There was no association between pretreatment total seizure duration and chance of successful response. Shorter time-to-treatment was paradoxically associated with lower chance of successful response to treatment, although this difference was small in magnitude (relative risk 1.007, 95% CI 1.003-1.010). CONCLUSIONS: Maximal seizure burden may be more important than other, more commonly used measures in predicting response to acute seizure treatments.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To compare the short- and long-term outcomes of infants with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) treated with whole-body therapeutic hypothermia (TH), monitored by esophageal vs rectal temperature. STUDY DESIGN: We conducted a secondary analysis of the multicenter High-Dose Erythropoietin for Asphyxia and Encephalopathy (HEAL) trial. All infants had moderate or severe HIE and were treated with whole-body TH. The primary outcome was death or neurodevelopmental impairment (NDI) at 22-36 months of age. Secondary outcomes included seizures, evidence of brain injury on magnetic resonance imaging, and complications of hypothermia. Logistic regression was used with adjustment for disease severity and site as clustering variable because cooling modality differed by site. RESULTS: Of the 500 infants who underwent TH, 294 (59%) and 206 (41%) had esophageal and rectal temperature monitoring, respectively. There were no differences in death or NDI, seizures, or evidence of injury on magnetic resonance imaging between the 2 groups. Infants treated with TH and rectal temperature monitoring had lower odds of overcooling (OR 0.52, 95% CI 0.34-0.80) and lower odds of hypotension (OR 0.57, 95% CI 0.39-0.84) compared with those with esophageal temperature monitoring. CONCLUSIONS: Although infants undergoing TH with esophageal monitoring were more likely to experience overcooling and hypotension, the rate of death or NDI was similar whether esophageal monitoring or rectal temperature monitoring was used. Further studies are needed to investigate whether esophageal temperature monitoring during TH is associated with an increased risk of overcooling and hypotension.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To determine if time to reaching target temperature (TT) is associated with death or neurodevelopmental impairment (NDI) at 2 years of age in infants with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). STUDY DESIGN: Newborn infants ≥36 weeks of gestation diagnosed with moderate or severe HIE and treated with therapeutic hypothermia were stratified based on time at which TT was reached, defined as early (ie, ≤4 hours of age) or late (>4 hours of age). Primary outcomes were death or NDI. Secondary outcomes included neurodevelopmental assessment with Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development, third edition (BSID-III) at age 2. RESULTS: Among 500 infants, the median time to reaching TT was 4.3 hours (IWR, 3.2-5.7 hours). Infants in early TT group (n = 211 [42%]) compared with the late TT group (n = 289 [58%]) were more likely to be inborn (23% vs 13%; P < .001) and have severe HIE (28% vs 19%; P = .03). The early and late TT groups did not differ in the primary outcome of death or any NDI (adjusted RR, 1.05; 95% CI, 0.85-0.30; P = .62). Among survivors, neurodevelopmental outcomes did not differ significantly in the 2 groups (adjusted mean difference in Bayley Scales of Infant Development-III scores: cognitive, -2.8 [95% CI, -6.1 to 0.5], language -3.3 [95% CI, -7.4 to 0.8], and motor -3.5 [95% CI, -7.3 to 0.3]). CONCLUSIONS: In infants with HIE, time to reach TT is not independently associated with risk of death or NDI at age 2 years. Among survivors, developmental outcomes are similar between those who reached TT at <4 and ≥4 hours of age.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To determine cerebral glucose concentration and its relationship with glucose infusion rate (GIR) and blood glucose concentration in neonatal encephalopathy during therapeutic hypothermia (TH). METHODS: This was an observational study in which cerebral glucose during TH was quantified by magnetic resonance (MR) spectroscopy and compared with mean blood glucose at the time of scan. Clinical data (gestational age, birth weight, GIR, sedative use) that could affect glucose use were collected. The severity and pattern of brain injury on MR imaging were scored by a neuroradiologist. Student t test, Pearson correlation, repeated measures ANOVA, and multiple regression analysis were performed. RESULTS: Three-hundred-sixty blood glucose values and 402 MR spectra from 54 infants (30 female infants; mean gestational age 38.6 ± 1.9 weeks) were analyzed. In total, 41 infants had normal-mild and 13 had moderate-severe injury. Median GIR and blood glucose during TH were 6.0 mg/kg/min (IQR 5-7) and 90 mg/dL (IQR 80-102), respectively. GIR did not correlate with blood or cerebral glucose. Cerebral glucose was significantly greater during than after TH (65.9 ± 22.9 vs 60.0 ± 25.2 mg/dL, P < .01), and there was a significant correlation between blood glucose and cerebral glucose during TH (basal ganglia: r = 0.42, thalamus: r = 0.42, cortical gray matter: r = 0.39, white matter: r = 0.39, all P < .01). There was no significant difference in cerebral glucose concentration in relation to injury severity or pattern. CONCLUSIONS: During TH, cerebral glucose concentration is partly dependent on blood glucose concentration. Further studies to understand brain glucose use and optimal glucose concentrations during hypothermic neuroprotection are needed.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To characterize the presentation and evaluation of infants with neonatal encephalopathy (NE) not due to hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (non-HIE NE) and to describe the genetic abnormalities identified. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study of 193 non-HIE NE neonates admitted to a level IV NICU from 2015 through 2019. For changes in testing over time, Cochrane-Armitage test for trend was used with a Bonferroni-corrected P-value, and comparison between groups was performed using Fisher exact test. RESULT: The most common symptom of non-HIE NE was abnormal tone in 47% (90/193). Ten percent (19/193) died prior to discharge, and 48% of survivors (83/174) required medical equipment at discharge. Forty percent (77/193) underwent genetic testing as an inpatient. Of 52 chromosomal studies, 54 targeted tests, and 16 exome sequences, 10%, 41%, and 69% were diagnostic, respectively, with no difference in diagnostic rates between infants with and without an associated congenital anomaly and/or dysmorphic feature. Twenty-eight genetic diagnoses were identified. CONCLUSIONS: Neonates with non-HIE NE have high rates of morbidity and mortality and may benefit from early genetic testing, even in the absence of other exam findings. This study broadens our knowledge of genetic conditions underlying non-HIE NE, which may enable families and care teams to anticipate the needs of the individual, allow early initiation of targeted therapies, and facilitate decisions surrounding goals of care.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To examine the frequency of placental abnormalities in a multicenter cohort of newborn infants with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) and to determine the association between acuity of placental abnormalities and clinical characteristics of HIE. STUDY DESIGN: Infants born at ≥36 weeks of gestation (n = 500) with moderate or severe HIE were enrolled in the High-dose Erythropoietin for Asphyxia and Encephalopathy Trial. A placental pathologist blinded to clinical information reviewed clinical pathology reports to determine the presence of acute and chronic placental abnormalities using a standard classification system. RESULTS: Complete placental pathologic examination was available for 321 of 500 (64%) trial participants. Placental abnormalities were identified in 273 of 321 (85%) and were more common in infants ≥40 weeks of gestation (93% vs 81%, P = .01). A combination of acute and chronic placental abnormalities (43%) was more common than either acute (20%) or chronic (21%) abnormalities alone. Acute abnormalities included meconium staining of the placenta (41%) and histologic chorioamnionitis (39%). Chronic abnormalities included maternal vascular malperfusion (25%), villitis of unknown etiology (8%), and fetal vascular malperfusion (6%). Infants with chronic placental abnormalities exhibited a greater mean base deficit at birth (-15.9 vs -14.3, P = .049) than those without such abnormalities. Patients with HIE and acute placental lesions had older mean gestational ages (39.1 vs 38.0, P < .001) and greater rates of clinically diagnosed chorioamnionitis (25% vs 2%, P < .001) than those without acute abnormalities. CONCLUSIONS: Combined acute and chronic placental abnormalities were common in this cohort of infants with HIE, underscoring the complex causal pathways of HIE. TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT02811263.
