Please, I would like to know what experiences you have with the use of erythropoietin to treat perinatal ischemic hypoxic encephalopathy.

Sincerely,

I am one of the co-site PI's on a RCT called PAEAN (https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03079167). It is a multi centre, RCT looking at the use of EPO in babies with moderate or severe HIE that receiving therapeutic hypothermia. We are approximately 2/3 through recruiting for this study and hopefully these results can answer your question! Sorry, no answers but thought I would share that!
