5 Hospital-related, maternal, and fetal risk factors for neonatal asphyxia: A 15 year retrospective cohort study in Alberta, Canada Submitted for publication

6 Alberta 661,848 km² Population : million birth per year Southern Alberta Neonatal Transport Service (SANTS): serves a catchment area of 1.8 million people and more than 20,000 births/year TH was introduced as standard of care in June 2008 Approximately 40 neonates eligible for TH get admitted to Calgary centers per year

19 Use of inotropes and Brain injury Use of inotropes in the first 72 hours associated with significant increase in the risk of death or brain injury (OR 3.11; 95% CI ) and brain injury alone (OR 2.78; 95% CI ) Adjusted for gestational age (GA), birth weight, birth outside the referral tertiary centre, cord blood gas ph, Apgar score at 10 minutes of age, HIE clinical stage, use of anti-seizure medication, use of sedation, and TH

20 Ventilation and hypocapnia Before After P value Hypocarbia 70% 57% 0.03 Ventilation 62% 49% Infants with hypocapnia had significantly higher HIE changes on MRI and increased the odds of abnormal MRI after adjusting for HIE clinical severity ( AOR 2.51, CI ;P=0.001)
