When babies experience hypoxia-ischemia, they can develop brain injury that results in serious neurological problems later in life, such as cerebral palsy or learning difficulties. Babies who have experienced hypoxic-ischemic injury can suffer from seizures. Because many existing anti-seizure medicines do not work well for newborns, Soul is leading a clinical trial of a new seizure medicine for them.
This study, which is supported by a grant from the National Institutes of Health , is the first randomized trial of a new seizure medicine to be tested in newborns in decades.
Volpe is considered by many to have founded the field of neonatal neurology. Before your first visit to the Fetal-Neonatal Neurology Program, we will send you a new patient packet that outlines what you need to bring.
