There are 3 levels of severity of anoxo-ischemic encephalopathy (EAI): mild, moderate and severe. Therapeutic hypothermia is beneficial in children with moderate EAI. It is ineffective in severe EAI and may be deleterious if there is no EAI. He continues to question his interest in light EAIs. There are few studies on the becoming of children with a mild anoxic-ischemic encephalopathy and not set hypothermia. The main hypothesis of the study is that term newborns with anoxo-ischemic encephalopathy who did not require therapeutic hypothermia have normal psychomotor development at 2 years.
