Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The aim of our study is to assess brain injury using cranial ultrasound (cUS) and cerebral magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The primary outcome parameter is defined as difusion weighted imaging (DWI) abnormalities in order to evaluate acute brain injury from hypoxic-ischemic events and alterations in cerebral perfusion and oxygenation.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Main study parameters/endpoints: The primary endpoints of this study are: a. Brain injury diagnosed using cranial ultrasound (cUS) and cerebral magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Secondary endpoints consist of: a. Evaluation of the value of biomarkers for neuronal injury (i.e. S100B, NSE, B-FABP, neuroketal), oxidative stress (NPBI and 8-isoprostane) and inflammation (luminex) in predicting timing of (hypoxic-ischemic) brain injury during neonatal surgery. b. Neurodevelopmental outcome at 24 months corrected age, measured by Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development, Third Edition (BSID-III). Other study parameters are: Perioperative details about the anesthetic regimen, vital signs, and aEEG and NIRS data will be collected and analysed in relation to brain injury, in order to identify associations between perioperative parameters and potential brain injury. In addition, a detailed medical chart review will be performed and perinatal and demographic data will also be collected and analysed in relation to potential brain injury, in order to find patterns and associations between perinatal, demographic and perioperative parameters and the primary outcome measure.
