Summary

This is a Phase I, open-label, single center trial to evaluate the feasibility and safety of low concentration CO2 gas mixture (5% CO2 + 95% air) inhalation in asphyxiated, cooled, mechanically ventilated newborns at risk of hypocapnia with The hypothesis is that hypocapnia, which is driven by hyperventilation in the presence of metabolic acidosis, is deleterious to the injured brain and can be safely avoided with low concentration CO2 inhalation.

Conditions

  • Hypoxic-Ischaemic Encephalopathy
  • Perinatal Asphyxia
  • Hypocapnia

Interventions

OTHER

5% carbon-dioxide inhalation

5% CO2 (36 mmHg) and 95% air gas mixture inhalation, for a maximum of 12 hours or until metabolic acidosis recovery occurs as measured by BE \> -5 mmol/L in arterial blood gas samples
