Interventions

  • Visual Evoked Potential (VEP) — DEVICE
    Small gold-cup electrodes will be placed on the participant's head using a small dot of adhesive paste. The handheld device is then connected to the electrodes, and the participant's eyes are exposed to a light flicker. Each eye will be tested separately, and while testing one eye, the other eye may be patched.
  • Electroretinogram (ERG) — DEVICE
    Skin electrodes will be placed under each eye. Eyes will then be exposed to a flashing light. Each eye will be tested separately and while testing one eye, the other eye may be patched.

Study Details

The purpose of this research study is to gather more information on how eye injury is related to a baby's future development and see if eye function and brain test results can be used, along with current measures, to better diagnose and treat babies with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). Participants will undergo up to two eye exam sessions, involving both Visual Evoked Potential (VEP) and Electroretinogram (ERG) exams.
