Abstract | This study has been undertaken to investigate the neurodevelopmental profile of Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy in Infants using the Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development, Fourth Edition (Bayley-4). Methods: A sample of 50 infants diagnosed with HIE was recruited from a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) or pediatric hospital. Informed consent was obtained from the parents or legal guardians. The infants' neurodevelopmental profiles were assessed using Bayley-4, a widely used and validated measure of cognitive, motor, and language. The assessments were administered by trained researchers experienced in working with infants. Results: Preliminary findings indicate that infants with HIE displayed significant neurodevelopmental impairments across multiple domains. The mean scores obtained from the Bayley-4 revealed below-average cognitive functioning and motor delays. Subgroup analyses exploring potential factors influencing neurodevelopmental outcomes, such as the severity of HIE or medical interventions received, will also be presented. Conclusion: This study provides insights into the neurodevelopmental profile of infants with HIE using the Bayley-4 assessment tool. The findings suggest a pattern of impairments in cognitive & motor development in this population. These results have implications for early identification, intervention, and support for HIE infants to optimize their developmental outcomes. Further research is needed to explore additional factors contributing to neurodevelopmental outcomes in this population and to investigate the long-term effects beyond the early years. |
