AI Article Synopsis
- Researchers studied the link between left cardiac 3D echocardiographic measurements and brain injury in newborns with neonatal encephalopathy in a single hospital.
- They found that on the second day of life, babies with brain injury had larger left ventricle end-diastolic volume and stroke volume compared to those without brain injury.
- Additionally, these infants showed a higher peak global circumferential strain on the 3D echocardiogram, suggesting possible cardiac changes associated with brain injury.
Article Abstract
We evaluated the association between left cardiac 3-dimensional echocardiographic parameters and brain injury in a single-center prospective study of neonates with neonatal encephalopathy. On day 2 of life, neonates with brain injury had greater left ventricle end-diastolic and stroke volume but also greater peak global circumferential strain detected by 3-dimensional echocardiogram.
