Xenon and Cooling Therapy in Babies at High Risk of Brain Injury Following Poor Condition at Birth — CoolXenon2

Hypoxic Ischaemic Encephalopathy Clinical Trial

Official title:
Xenon and Cooling Therapy in Babies at High Risk of Brain Injury Following Poor Condition at Birth: A Randomised Pilot Study

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

This study examines the effect of inhaled xenon gas in the treatment of newborn infants with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) in combination with cooling, which is the standard treatment for this condition. The hypothesis is that the xenon + cooling combination will produce better neuroprotection than the standard treatment of cooling alone.
