Midazolam Prevents the Adverse Outcome of Neonatal Asphyxia

Abstract: Objective Birth asphyxia (BA) is the most frequent cause of neonatal death as well as central nervous system (CNS) injury. BA is often associated with neonatal seizures, which only poorly respond to anti‐seizure medications and may contribute to the adverse neurodevelopmental outcome. Using a non‐invasive rat model of BA, we have recently reported that the potent benzodiazepine, midazolam, prevents neonatal seizures in ~50% of rat pups. In addition to its anti‐seizure effect, midazolam exerts anti‐inflammatory… Show more

“…Neonatal asphyxia is a severe pathological condition that occurs when various factors disrupt the exchange of gases between the mother and fetus, resulting in oxygen deprivation and the inability to establish and maintain normal breathing after birth, which can lead to cerebral hypoxia ( 1 ). The neonatal brain has a high metabolic rate and requires significant oxygen for proper functioning.…”
