Methodology: It was a six-months’ case-control study involving 117 parturients whose babies presented with a nuchal cord at delivery. The study was carried out at the Yaoundé Gyneco-Obstetric and Pediatric Hospital, Cameroon, from January 1st to June 30th 2013. Results: The risk factors of clinical birth asphyxia identified were: first delivery, absence of obstetrical ultrasound during pregnancy, nuchal cord with more than one loop, duration of second stage of labor more than 30 minutes during vaginal delivery. The risk factors for newborn death from clinical birth asphyxia in the presence of nuchal cord were: maternal age Conclusion: We recommend a systematic obstetrical ultrasound before labor, so as to detect the presence of a nuchal cord, its tightness and the number of loops. Also, cesarean section should be considered when a nuchal cord is associated with first delivery, tightness or multiple looping.展开更多

Queen Elizabeth Central Hospital (QECH) neonatal ward records indicate that 36.5% of neonates admitted in the ward from April to September 2012 had birth asphyxia. This study was conducted to explore associative factors for birth asphyxia at QECH. Methodology: The study design was descriptive cross sectional that employed quantitative methods of data collection and analysis. Data sources were case notes of neonates and their mothers.? Sample size was 87 neonates with birth asphyxia and 87 neonates admitted with conditions other than birth asphyxia as controls. Data were collected from November to December 2013. Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) version16.0 was used to analyze data. Results: Findings revealed that there were no maternal associative factors for birth asphyxia, however, foetal distress, prolonged first and second stage of labour were significant associative factors for birth asphyxia. Conclusion: Associative factors for birth asphyxia at QECH are Foetal distress, prolonged first and second stage of labour. These factors can be prevented if quality care is provided to women in labour through close monitoring of foetal heart, appropriate use of the partograph, prompt decision making and early interventions.展开更多

文摘背景新生儿急性肾损伤(AKI)早期诊断困难,病死率高,而目前关于重度窒息并发新生儿AKI的相关研究相对缺乏。目的探讨新生儿重度窒息并发AKI的危险因素及近期预后情况,并分析相关因素的预测价值,以采取措施减少AKI的发生,并提高此类患儿的抢救成功率。方法纳入2016年1月—2023年1月于蚌埠医学院第一附属医院新生儿重症监护病房住院治疗的172例重度窒息新生儿为研究对象,根据患儿是否并发AKI,分为AKI组(n=43)和非AKI组(n=129)。收集患儿临床资料和实验室检查结果,并记录AKI患儿的近期预后情况(住院期间存活或死亡)。采用多因素Logistic回归分析探究新生儿重度窒息并发AKI的影响因素,采用受试者工作特征(ROC)曲线探究相关指标对新生儿重度窒息并发AKI的预测价值。结果AKI组患儿胎龄、出生体质量、5 min Apgar评分、血小板计数低于非AKI组,昏迷状态比例、有创机械通气比例、合并呼吸衰竭比例、血胱抑素C(Cys C)高于非AKI组(P<0.05)。多因素Logistic回归分析结果显示,5 min Apgar评分(OR=1.553,95%CI=1.193~2.021,P=0.001)、有创机械通气(OR=2.965,95%CI=1.021~8.611,P=0.046)、血Cys C值(OR=0.231,95%CI=0.109~0.487,P<0.001)是新生儿重度窒息并发AKI的影响因素。ROC曲线分析结果显示血Cys C预测AKI的ROC曲线下面积(AUC)为0.777(95%CI=0.701~0.854,P<0.05),5 min Apgar评分预测AKI的AUC为0.792(95%CI=0.715~0.869,P<0.05)。AKI组患儿住院病死率为51.2%(22/43),非AKI组患儿住院病死率为21.7%(28/129),AKI组患儿病死率高于非AKI组(χ^(2)=13.572,P<0.001)。结论低5 min Apgar评分、有创机械通气、出生后高血Cys C会增加重度窒息新生儿发生AKI的风险。5 min Apgar评分、出生后血Cys C是预测新生儿重度窒息并发AKI的可靠指标。
文摘目的探讨新生儿窒息的危险因素。方法选取2010年1月~2013年1月本院收治的35例新生儿窒息患儿设为实验组,同时选取在本院出生的35例正常新生儿为对照组,进行单因素分析及暴露因素的Logistic回归分析。结果单因素分析:影响新生儿1 min Apgar评分的单因素有分娩方式、新儿体重以及自然流产史(P<0.05);暴露因素的Logistic回归分析:羊水污染、新儿体重以及自然流产史等暴露因素为影响评分的因素(P<0.05)。结论临床上应该重视分娩方式的选择、新生儿体重异常以及有自然流产史的产妇,以减少新生儿窒息的发生率和控制窒息后遗症的发生率。
