About this study

Official title: Effect of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy on Neonatal Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy

The purpose of this study is to to evaluate the safety and efficacy of hyperbaric oxygen in term gestation newborn infants with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy..

Read the detailed description

Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) remains a major cause of neonatal death and long term disabilities. Data from animal studies have shown protective effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy to impaired brain. Recently research priorities have moved from bench to bedside. Several studies have shown a trend for brain protection of hyperbaric oxygen therapy has emerged as a promising treatment for HIE. Therefore,the investigators organized a multi-centered randomized controlled trial of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in HIE newborn infants.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • hyperbaric oxygenDevice

    The hyperbaric oxygen treatment will be administered for 60 min in a baby hyperbaric oxygen chamber pressured with 100% oxygen to 1.5 to 1.8 atm absolute (ATA) and a constant oxygen flow was given to maintain the oxygen. concentration in the chamber at 80% or greater.The treatment will be administered once a day within 7 days after birth, 7 days is a course of treatment, at least for 4 courses.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Death or Moderate to Severe Disability Which is Graded According to Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) (time frame: 18 months of life). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
