NCT ID NCT06762795
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study offers genome sequencing to 25 newborns diagnosed with HIE (a severe brain condition from lack of oxygen at birth) who are receiving cooling therapy. Researchers want to find out how often genetic changes cause or contribute to HIE. The goal is to help doctors decide which babies should get genetic testing in the future.
