Unlabelled: Diastolic dysfunction often complicates myocardial ischemia with increased mortality rates. However, less is known about diastolic function after perinatal asphyxia in neonates with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) during therapeutic hypothermia (TH) and rewarming.
Aim: The aim of this study was to assess diastolic function with tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) in neonates with moderate-severe HIE during TH and rewarming.
The relationship between right ventricular (RV) function and cerebral blood flow (CBF) velocity and cerebral oxygenation was assessed in neonates with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) treated with therapeutic hypothermia (TH). Echocardiographic, transcranial Doppler, and hemodynamic data from 37 neonates with moderate-severe HIE + TH were reviewed. Twenty healthy newborns served as controls.

Their use in pregnancy may cause malformations, oligoanuria, hypotension, and death. Hypotension is observed up to 15% of cases and is described as refractory to volume and inotropic support, although its pathophysiology is unknown.

Introduction: Several publications highlight the usefulness of functional echocardiography (FnECHO) in neonatal intensive care. Data is lacking on its use in units neonatal in Spain.
Objectives: To evaluate frequency of use, patient characteristics, indications, measurements, and impact on patient management of FnECHO in a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) in Spain over a 1 year period.
