METHODS: During this period, 794 cases are collected, with information on pregnancy, delivery, neonatal stay and outcome at the end of hospitalization. Clinical and parental questionnaire follow-up is planned until the child is 4 years old.
RESULTS: This article presents the clinical presentation of the newborns included, the analysis of factors associated with short-term outcome at hospital discharge and the organizational factors associated with treatment with therapeutic hypothermia.
CONCLUSIONS: These data illustrate the value of a prospective cohort to analyze the management of anoxo-ischemic encephalopathy in France.
