Neonatal Encephalopathy (NE) describes neonates with disturbed neurological function in
the first post-natal days of life. NE is an overall term that does not specify the etiology of the …

Neonatal heart failure (HF) is a progressive disease caused by cardiovascular and non-
cardiovascular abnormalities. The most common cause of neonatal HF is structural …

Despite the important advances in perinatal care in the past decades, asphyxia remains a
severe condition leading to significant mortality and morbidity. Perinatal asphyxia has an …

Rationale: Asphyxiated neonates with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) are at risk of
myocardial dysfunction; however, echocardiography studies are limited and little is known …

Neonates with a perinatal hypoxic event and subsequent neonatal encephalopathy are at
risk of develo** acute pulmonary hypertension (aPH) in the early neonatal a Division of …

Objectives. Hypoxic-ischemic cerebral injury due to perinatal asphyxia is an important cause
of neonatal mortality and morbidity. To predict who will survive or die due to this disorder still …

Objective To study the usefulness of cardiac enzymes in evaluating myocardial damage in
perinatal asphyxia. Methods Thirty term babies with perinatal asphyxia and without any …

In this prospective cohort study of healthy full-term infants, we hypothesized that high-
sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) would be elevated in cord blood, compared with …

Objective: To investigate whether creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) and cardiac troponin I (cTnI)
can be used to predict neurodevelopmental outcome at 18 months in infants with perinatal …

Cardiac biomarkers are used to identify cardiac disease in term and preterm infants. This
review discusses the roles of natriuretic peptides and cardiac troponins. Natriuretic peptide …
