Abstract

Hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) in newborn infants is one of the causes of later serious brain damage. In recent years, hypothermia therapy has attracted attention as an effective means of for preventing HIE-induced brain damage and has been used clinically 1, 2,3. However, the problem of which newborn infants should be selected for hypothermia therapy remains unsolved. Currently, selection is based on results of various tests such as neurological tests, blood biochemical tests and electroencephalography (EEG) 4. However, there is no definitive evaluation method.
