Effectiveness will be defined by examining the stability of rectal temperature during cooling. Monitoring of vital signs, infection screen, blood counts, coagulation screen, liver and renal function tests, cranial US and MR imaging will be performed on recruited infants to evaluate safety of cooling. EEG will be performed on day 4 and hearing evaluation at discharge. Neurodevelopmental evaluation will be performed at 1 year of age.
