Abstract

Defining neonatal encephalopathy clinically to qualify for therapeutic hypothermia is challenging. This study examines magnetic resonance imaging outcomes of 39 infants who were evaluated and not cooled using criteria inclusive of mild encephalopathy. Infants evaluated for therapeutic hypothermia are at risk for brain injury and may benefit from neuroimaging and follow-up.
