Abstract:
Objective To evaluate prognostic value of electroencephalogram (EEG) in neonatal with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). Methods Sixty two infants with HIE was studied by doing physical examination, intelligence test, CT and EEG. Their clinical outcome was compared to their EEG in the first month after birth. Results Incidence of sequelae in normal or mild abnormal EEG and severe abnormal EEG were 3%, 29%, respectively. Among three infants of EEG cases, two dead and one developed cerebral palsy infant. Among four of burst suppression found in the EEGs, two cases dead, one developed cerebral palsy, one was normal. In five of hypoactive EEG, one dead, one developed cerebral palsy, and the other was with low IQ. Conlusion The prognosis is related to the background activity of EEG. The presence of a burst suppression EEG pattern and a hypoactive/flat EEG are negative prognostic criteria.
