Abstract
Background
To investigate the prevalence and associated outcomes of glucose abnormalities in infants with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) undergoing therapeutic hypothermia (TH).
Methods
Glucose values were reviewed in all HIE infants. Pearson’s correlation was used to assess the association of hypo- and hyperglycemic episodes with neonatal brain MRI and neurodevelopmental outcomes (NDO) at 12 & 24 months.
Results
Of 153 infants included, 31, 56 and 43 had episodes of hypo-, hyperglycemia and combined, respectively. Hyperglycemia and combined hypo/hyper had higher mortality (p = 0.035), seizures (p = 0.009), and longer hospitalization (p = 0.023). Hypo- and hyperglycemia were associated with parenchymal hemorrhages (p = 0.028 & p = 0.027, respectively). Hypoglycemia was associated with restricted diffusion (p = 0.014), while hyperglycemia was associated with cortical injuries (p = 0.045). Each hour of hyper- or hypoglycemia was associated with 5.2–5.8 times unfavorable outcomes (p < 0.001).
Conclusion
Blood glucose aberrations were detrimental in HIE infants treated with TH. Optimizing glucose management is crucial in this setting.
