Immediate complications of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy in term neonates with resistive index as prognostic factor

Background: Hypoxemia, a decreased arterial concentration of oxygen, frequently results in hypoxia, or oxygenation to cells organs. Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is leading cause neonatal brain injury, morbidity, and mortality globally. In the developed world, incidence estimated at 1-8 per 1,000 live births, developing estimates are as high 26 1,000. The objective study use resistive index prognostic factor for immediate outcome by Doppler ultrasound birth asphyxia.Methods: 50 babies were subjected neurosonogram between 12-24 hours life admitted tertiary care centre. Resistive (RI) was measured all enrolled neonates within 24 using pulse wave ultrasound. RI calculated as: , where S=peak systolic velocity D=end diastolic velocity. with 3.5 MHz transducer. . A 0.56 0.90 considered normal classified having either abnormal RI.Results: conducted states that mean age taken 17.12 p value 0.82 cord pH 6.88 0.70 which suggestive adverse outcomes asphyxiated while cerebral arteries renal 0.66 0.115 statistically significant. lesser indices more severe outcome.Conclusions: consequences HIE like death, seizures, acute kidney injury parameters my has positive co relation measures respectively.
