Active clinical trials for "Asphyxia Neonatorum"

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.

The overarching aim of this project is to determine the optimum enteral and parenteral nutrition strategy for newborns with Hypoxic Ischaemic Encephalopathy (HIE) during and after therapeutic hypothermia. To do this the investigators will perform two primary comparisons: ENTERAL: to determine whether any enteral (milk) feeding, when compared to withholding enteral feeding (no milk), during therapeutic hypothermia, is associated with a difference in the incidence of necrotising enterocolitis. PARENTERAL: to determine whether provision of intravenous dextrose, when compared to provision of parenteral nutrition, during therapeutic hypothermia, is associated with a difference in the incidence of blood stream infection. The investigators will use de-identified data held in an established research database called the National Neonatal Research Database (NNRD) and we will use the potential outcomes framework with application of propensity scoring to define matched subgroups for comparison.

This is an historic cohort study based on the birth and delivery register of the HFME maternity ward. This study aim at understanding the evolution of asphyxia at birth, at all gestational ages, identifying causes and describing neonatal outcomes since 2000, when a second line strategy for foetal surveillance (fetal ECG) and systematic umbilical acid-gas cord blood were introduced in our maternity ward. The investigator's hypothesis was that the neonatal asphyxia decrease could be due to 3 main factors including second line strategy introduction, systematic umbilical cord acid-base implementation and improvement in antenatal risk factor screening for asphyxia. The investigator's second hypothesis was that neonatal prognosis in neonates with acidosis was improved with systematic early after birth EEG evaluation, allowing early treatment and surveillance.

Follow-up of participants of AAMBI1 study at age of at least 2 years. AAMBI1(ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT03354208): Verification of biomarkers in a human population for their ability to diagnose the severity of neonatal asphyxia. These biomarkers linked to asphyxia have been identified in animal studies.

Follow-up of participants of BANON1 study at age of at least 2 years. BANON1 (ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT03357250): Validation of biomarkers based on 24 months neuro-developmental outcome data in a human population for their ability to diagnose the severity of neonatal asphyxia. These biomarkers linked to asphyxia have been identified in animal studies and a preliminary human study.
