Turkish Neonatal Society Guideline on neonatal encephalopathy.

Neonatal encephalopathy is a major cause of neonatal mortality and morbidity. Therapeutic hypothermia is standard treatment for newborns at 35 weeks of gestation or more with intrapartum hypoxia-related neonatal encephalopathy. Term and late preterm infants with moderate-to-severe encephalopathy show improved survival and neurodevelopmental outcomes at 18 months of age after therapeutic hypothermia.
