Filter by:The NSR-DEV study is a longitudinal cohort study of around 280 Neonatal Seizure Registry participants that aims to evaluate childhood outcomes after acute symptomatic neonatal seizures, as well as examine risk factors for developmental disabilities and whether these are modified by parent well-being.
The main purpose of this study will be to evaluate the prognostic value at 3 months of life of brain perfusion MRI determined by Arterial Spin Labeling technique in the first week of life of term newborns with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy requiring management in neonatal intensive care unit.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and the tolerability of CL2020 cells in hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy neonates with hypothermia therapy. In addition, we will evaluate the efficacy of CL2020 cells for infant development.
Neonatal anoxia-ischemia causes significant neurodevelopmental disorders. In this study the investigators want to better understand the interactions between the nervous and the hemodynamic cerebral systems during the adaptation of the neonate to ectopic life just after birth. Birth is an at risk situation of neonatal anoxic ischemia and the lack of objective criteria for cerebral tissue oxygenation has consequences on neuronal activity. Ph cord analysis is inadequate and only indirectly reflects the state of cerebral oxygenation. Both neuronal and vascular systems are part of the same functional entity and the analysis of their interactions is likely to reveal some early malfunctions of these networks. In this study, the investigators want to develop a multi-scale, multimodal approach that allows simultaneous interrogation of both neuronal and vascular compartments during the 15 minutes after delivery. The investigators will record, with the aid of a single sensor placed on the scalp of the child, the electroencephalogram and the cerebral tissue oxygenation. The investigators will measure interactions by means of correlation analysis between both signals.
A multicenter, randomized, adaptive allocation clinical trial to determine if increasing durations of induced hypothermia are associated with an increasing rate of good neurological outcomes and to identify the optimal duration of induced hypothermia for neuroprotection in comatose survivors of cardiac arrest.
In ECPR, where CPR times often range from 30 to 120 minutes, only patients with good circulation during CPR survive, while non-survivors commonly suffer from anoxic brain injury. The selection process during CPR is challenging causing a general survival rate of just 2 out of 10, and the urgent need for better selection criteria has been emphasized. It it crucial to keep cardiac arrest times as short as possible, pre primed-ECMO can facilitate this. The ECMO treatment and the long CPR times of ECPR can also affect the measurements of the neurologic prognostication guidelines after cardiac arrest, making its validity uncertain in this specific cohort. Further, the long-term neuropsychological follow-up is limited to a few patients, making it uncertain if ECPR gives the survivors good long-term life satisfaction or just a prolonged life. Our overall aim is to optimize and improve the care pathway for ECPR patients by refining patient selection, assessing pre-primed ECMO, validating neurological prognostication guidelines, and understanding long-term outcomes and challenges faced by survivors. Specific Aim 1: Evaluating predictors for good neurological outcomes in ECPR and to develop an evidence-based selection tool for ECPR. Specific aim 2: To assess the sterility and function of pre-primed ECMO. Specific aim 3: To evaluate the applicability of current guidelines for neurological prognostication after cardiac arrest in ECPR patients, and to assess the predictive value of individual and combined neurological tests in this specific patient population. Specific aim 4: To determine the long-term neuropsychological outcomes, identify the problems survivors experience in daily life, and assess life satisfaction - by comprehensive follow-up visits with validated questionnaires and neuropsychology testing up to 10 years after the ECMO-treated cardiac arrest
The TIME study is a randomized, controlled trial to evaluate impact on early measures of neurodevelopment and the safety profile of therapeutic hypothermia in term neonates with Mild Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy who are < 6 hours of age. Neurodevelopmental outcome will be assessed at 12-14 months of age. The study will enroll 68 neonates randomized to therapeutic hypothermia or normothermia across 5 centers in California.
This study aims to determine the safety of HB-adMSC infusion and treatment effects of HB-adMSC infusion on brain structure, neurocognitive/functional outcomes, and neuroinflammation after subacute and chronic neurological injury in adults.
Hyperoxygenation for resuscitation of abnormal fetal heart rate tracings has been routine obstetric practice. However, there have not been any studies to support this practice. Recent literature have either found no associated benefit to intrapartum maternal oxygen administration, or in a number of studies demonstrated higher risk of neonatal complications. Despite these studies, the evidences have not been adequate to change the clinical practice because the majority of these studies either focused on biological differences rather than clinical outcomes data or were retrospective rather than randomized trials. Therefore, the investigators propose a large single center randomized clinical trial to determine the effects of maternal hyperoxygenation therapy for the treatment of fetal heart rate tracing abnormalities.
Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common and serious postoperative complication in children with congenital heart disease. In this prospective cohort study, we tested the hypothesis that renal desaturation defined as a 20% decline of renal tissue oxygen saturation (SrtO2) from the baseline value is associated with AKI in infants undergoing ventricular septal defect (VSD) repair with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Methods: Infants aged 1 months to 12 months and scheduled to undergo VSD repair with CPB were eligible. SrtO2 was monitored using a tissue near-infrared spectroscopy. Renal desaturation was defined as a decrease of SrtO2 measurement from the baseline value for more than 20% lasting for more than 60 s. The primary outcome was the incidence of AKI on postoperative 1-3 days according to the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes criteria. The secondary outcomes included different stages of AKI, duration of postoperative mechanical ventilation, duration of intensive care unit (ICU) and hospital stay, renal replacement therapy (RRT), and in-hospital mortality.
