BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Therapeutic hypothermia has reduced the risk of death or major disability following perinatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE); however, many children who experience perinatal HIE still go on to develop personal and behavioral challenges, which can be difficult for caregivers and a public health burden for society. Our objective with this review is to systematically identify and synthesize studies that evaluate associations between perinatal HIE and socioemotional or psychological outcomes. METHODS: We screened all search-returned journal articles from Cochrane Library, Embase, Medline, PsycINFO, Scopus, and Web of Science from data inception through February 1, 2023. Keywords related to HIE (eg, neonatal encephalopathy, neonatal brain injury) and outcomes (eg, social*, emotion*, behav* problem, psycholog*, psychiatr*) were searched with a predefined search string. We included all observational human studies reporting socioemotional or psychological sequelae of term HIE. Study data were recorded on standardized sheets, and the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale was adapted to assess study quality. RESULTS: We included 43 studies documenting 3244 HIE participants and 2132 comparison participants. We found statistically significant associations between HIE and social and emotional, behavioral, and psychological and psychiatric deficits throughout infancy, childhood, and adolescence (19 studies). The authors of the included studies also report nonsignificant findings (11 studies) and outcomes without statistical comparison (25 studies). CONCLUSIONS: Perinatal HIE may be a risk factor for a range of socioemotional and psychological challenges in the short- and long-term. Routine screening, early intervention, and follow-up support may be particularly beneficial to this population.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
