Abstract:
Objective:To study the neurodevelopmental prognosis and risk factors for adverse outcomes of neonatal seizure.Methods:From December 2019 to November 2020, infants with neonatal seizure diagnosed in our hospital were enrolled in this retrospective study. Based on survival or not, mental development index (MDI), psychomotor development index (PDI) and seizure episodes at the age of 12 months, the infants were assigned into adverse outcome group and normal outcome group. The risk factors for adverse outcomes were statistically analyzed.Results:A total of 75 infants were enrolled,including 39 cases in adverse outcome group and 36 in normal outcome group. 69 cases showed abnormal amplitude-integrated electroencephalogram(aEEG), including 38 mildly abnormal cases,23 moderately abnormal cases and 8 severely abnormal cases, The incidences of adverse outcomes and mortality rates were significantly different ( P<0.05) among infants with different severity levels of aEEG abnormalities and the severity levels of aEEG abnormalities were positively correlated with adverse outcomes ( r=0.367, 0.471, P<0.05).Univariate analysis showed that adverse outcome group had significantly higher incidences of chorioamnionitis, seizure onset age ≤3 d, 5 min Apgar score ≤3, cranial ultrasound abnormalities, brain MR abnormalities and aEEG abnormalities than normal outcome group ( P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that seizure onset age ≤3 d ( OR=3.988, 95% CI 1.376-11.674), abnormal brain MR ( OR=3.296, 95% CI 2.383-17.377) and bilirubin encephalopathy ( OR=3.792,95% CI 2.110-13.216) were independent risk factors for adverse outcomes of neonatal seizure. Conclusions:For neonatal seizure, the infants with more severe abnormal aEEG will have higher incidences of adverse outcomes and mortality. Seizure onset age ≤3 d, brain MR abnormalities and bilirubin encephalopathy were independent risk factors for adverse outcomes of neonatal seizure.
