Neurodevelopmental Evaluation in Full-term Newborns with Neonatal Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy (HIE): A Case Control Study

Background: Newborns with Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy (HIE) are at risk of
neuro-developmental disabilities. Early identification of their neuro-developmental
impairments (NDI), immediate intervention and reassessment might be a useful method
to measure and prevent major disability. This study was performed to identify
impairment in different developmental domains among the babies admitted with
moderate to severe degree HIE, and evaluate their outcomes after intervention with
developmental therapy and stimulation.
