Popis: | Electronic foetal monitoring using cardiotocography is aimed at the timely recognition and management of foetal hypoxia. The primary objective of this study was to examine whether a relationship exists between the types of foetal hypoxia (acute, subacute, evolving, chronic), as identified on cardiotocography and the nature of hypoxic ischaemic encephalopathy, as observed on MRI scans after birth. We conducted a retrospective study of 16 babies born (out of 52,187 births) at St George's Hospital in London during 2006-2017 with a postnatal diagnosis of HIE. Of the 16 babies, only 11 had both MRI scans and CTG traces available. Of those, 9 showed evidence of intrapartum hypoxia on CTG, but only 6 demonstrated evidence of HIE on MRI. Those with acute hypoxia showed abnormalities in the basal ganglia and thalami. A gradually evolving hypoxia or subacute hypoxia was associated with lesions in myelination and cerebral cortex.Impact Statement |
