Learning Objectives<br />
• To describe when brain injury in <strong>the</strong><br />
newborn occurs<br />
• To describe <strong>the</strong> effects of early brain<br />
injury on subsequent brain development<br />
• To illustrate how <strong>the</strong> newborn brain<br />
differs from <strong>the</strong> adult brain in response<br />
to injury and even <strong>the</strong>rapies<br />

stroke | strōk|<br />
Noun<br />
1 an act of hitting or striking someone or<br />
something; a blow<br />
2 a movement in which something moves<br />
out of its position and back<br />
3 a sudden disabling attack caused<br />
by an interruption in <strong>the</strong> flow of<br />
blood to <strong>the</strong> brain<br />
31 Weeks 42 Weeks<br />
<strong>When</strong> are you most likely to<br />
have a stroke<br />
A. At Birth (<strong>Newborn</strong>)<br />
B. On 2nd Birthday (Toddler)<br />
C. On 65th Birthday (Mature)<br />
D. On 85th Birthday (More Mature)<br />
<strong>Brain</strong> <strong>Injury</strong> in Congenital Heart<br />
Disease<br />
• 6-8/1000 term newborns<br />
– 50% require surgery as newborns<br />
• Long-term neurodevelopmental<br />
disability is common in newborns<br />
with congenital heart disease<br />
