Prognostic Value of Clinical Tests in Neonates With Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy Treated With Therapeutic Hypothermia: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Conclusions: In the wake of the era of TH, MRI and neurophysiological tests (aEEG or EEG) were promising predictors of adverse outcomes, while SEPs need high-quality studies to confirm the findings. Continued follow-up of the children and well-designed large prospective studies are essential to determine whether these benefits are maintained in later childhood.
