Portable MRI for Pediatric Hypoxic Ischemic Brain Injury
Sponsor: Children's Mercy Hospital Kansas City
Summary
This study will evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of low field portable MRI (pMRI) for detection of hypoxic ischemic brain injuries in pediatric patients compared to clinically obtained neuroimaging to define pediatric diagnostic limitations and to determine the diagnostic capabilities of this neuroimaging modality following optimization of image acquisition. The results of this study will help determine optimal clinical implementation opportunities in pediatric patients.

Interventions
Portable MRI
Enrolled subjects will undergo a portable, ultralow-field MRI (pMRI) at the bedside in the ICU location within +/- 24 hours of a clinically obtained, conventional MRI and/or head CT
Scavenged Sample Collection
Remaining blood or cerebrospinal fluid samples from clinical testing will be scavenged at timepoints correlating to the radiology imaging.
