Abstract

To define mild hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy and distinguish infants at risk of disability in the first 6 hours, this study stratified risk of disability by using early neurologic examination findings of infants enrolled in the Prospective Research for Infants with Mild Encephalopathy cohort. A total Sarnat score of ≥5 when performed at <6 hours of age detected future disability. TRIAL REGISTRATION: Clinicaltrials.gov: NCT01747863.
