Brief summary

Validation of biomarkers in a human population for their ability to diagnose the severity of neonatal asphyxia. These biomarkers linked to asphyxia have been identified in animal studies and a preliminary human study.

Detailed description

The aim of the study is to validate the application of combinations of several laboratory parameters in early postnatal blood samples, for identification of infants, who will suffer from early abnormal neonatal neurological outcome, in a population at risk. The population at risk is defined as term and late preterm (\>36 weeks of gestation) human infants following perinatal hypoxia-ischemia with or without postnatal resuscitation, and where the combination of laboratory parameters is derived from a preliminary study performed in Turkey (AAMBI) using a metabolomics approach.
