Abstract |
The pediatric neurologist is often requested to predict the neurologic outcome in an uncertain situation. A common and problematic clinical setting in which this occurs is the asphyxiated term newborn. This report reviews the predictive tools available for prognostication in this situation and formulates a practical paradigm that the authors hope will improve predictive accuracy and lessen uncertainty in this setting.
