Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) during labor is one ofthe major causes for cerebral palsy. This study aimed to identify intrinsic optical signals to detect tissue deterioration prior to the occurrence of HIE during labor using a rat neonate model. In the model, rat neonates underwent left carotid artery ligation followed by an exposure to 8% oxygen. Real-time monitoring for the rat neonate were carried out and the optica data on diffuse reflectance were collected to quantify total hemoglobin, deoxy-Hb concentration and scattering amplitude signal. Rapid reduction of scattering amplitude signal was detected in the hypoxic exposure. This alteration was reflected brain water content caused by hypoxic exposure. This study suggests that scattering amplitude can be a candidate of optical parameter to predict brain tissue deterioration triggered by hypoxia during labor.
