ABSTRACT

Resumo Apesar da variação entre observadores na avaliação do escore de Apgar, ele permanece um indicador útil das condições gerais do recém-nascido. O presente trabalho é um estudo de corte transversal baseado na população de nascidos vivos no Brasil no ano de 1999 e no biênio 2018-2019. Foram avaliadas todas as declarações de nascidos vivos (DNV) obtidas a partir do banco de dados do Sistema de Informações sobre Nascidos Vivos. As frequências foram comparadas entre os grupos por meio do teste qui-quadrado de Pearson e foi realizada análise de regressão logística multivariada. Adotou-se nível de significância estatística de 0,05. Foram analisadas 9.050.521 DNVs em nossa pesquisa. Constatamos que 2,1% dos recém-nascidos tiveram Apgar de 5º minuto < 7 em 1999, em comparação com 0,9% em 2018-2019. A análise multivariada indicou que gemelidade e gravidez na adolescência deixaram de ser fatores de risco para Apgar de 5º minuto < 7. Entre os fatores de risco, nota-se aumento da prematuridade, baixo peso ao nascer e anomalias congênitas. Observou-se melhoria de marcadores maternos, em especial o aumento do número de consultas pré-natais e escolaridade. Tais achados mostram a importância de acesso e seguimento pré-natal adequado e investimento em melhores condições socioeconômicas como estratégia eficaz para redução de morbimortalidade neonatal.


Abstract Although variation between observers in the assessment of the Apgar score, it remains a useful indicator of the general conditions of the newborn. This is a cross-sectional study based on population of live births in Brazil in 1999 and biennium 2018-2019. All declarations of live births (DNV) obtained from the Live Births System database were accessed. Frequencies were compared between groups using Pearson's chi-square test and multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed. A statistical significance level of 0.05 was considered. We included 9.050.521 DNVs in our research. We found that 2,1% of newborns had 5th minute Apgar < 7 in 1999 compared with 0,9% in 2018-2019. Multivariate analysis shows that twins and teenage pregnancy are no longer risk factors. Among risk factors, we observed an increase in prematurity, low birth weight and congenital anomalies. An improvement in maternal markers was observed, especially increase in the number of prenatal consultations and schooling. Such findings demonstrate the importance access and adequate prenatal care and improved socioeconomic conditions as effective strategy to reduce neonatal morbidity and mortality.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To establish a risk prediction model for neonatal asphyxia in cesarean section and test its application effect.Methods:This was a retrospective study. We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 2 244 infants (modeling group) who were delivered by cesarean section in Affiliated Hospital of Weifang Medical University from April 2021 to December 2021. Newborns were divided into asphyxia group ( n=176) and non-asphyxia group ( n=2 068) according to the occurrence of neonatal asphyxia. Logistic regression was used to screen the risk factors of neonatal asphyxia in cesarean section and a line chart model was established to predict the risk. Another 683 neonates were selected as validation group for external validation of the model from January to March in 2022. Results:Five factors including preterm birth, fetal distress, fetal growth restriction, abnormal S/D value of umbilical artery and umbilical cord around the neck were included in the prediction model. The area under ROC curve of the modeling group was 0.902, the Youden index was 0.687, the sensitivity was 0.837, and the specificity was 0.850. Hosmer-lemeshow test showed that χ2=1.79, and P=0.877. In the validation group, the area under ROC curve was 0.823, the Youden index was 0.555, the sensitivity was 0.835, and the specificity was 0.720. It showed that the model had a good fitting effect and identification validity. Conclusions:The risk prediction model has a good clinical application value in the prediction of neonatal asphyxia in cesarean section, and provides reference for obstetricians to take preventive management measures of neonatal asphyxia in time.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the prognostic indicators and influencing factors of neonatal asphyxia in Tibet.Methods:From March 2019 to March 2020, the clinical data of 126 asphyxiated newborns admitted to the neonatology department of Lhasa People's Hospital were retrospectively studied. According to the prognosis, they were divided into good prognosis group and poor prognosis group, and the clinical characteristics of the two groups were compared. The predictive value of Apgar score after birth, arterial blood gas analysis within 6 hours [pH, alkali residue (BE)] and their combined detection on the prognosis of asphyxiated newborns was analyzed. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the related factors affecting the prognosis of asphyxiated newborns.Results:31 cases (24.6%) in the poor prognosis group and 95 cases (75.4%) in the good prognosis group. The Apgar score at 1, 5 and 10 minutes after birth and pH and BE within 6 hours in the poor prognosis group were significantly lower than those in the good prognosis group (all P<0.05). The incidence of meconium stained amniotic fluid, fetal intrauterine distress, brain damage, lung damage, myocardial damage, kidney damage, abnormal coagulation function and multiple organ damage after asphyxia in the good prognosis group were significantly higher than those in the good prognosis group (all P<0.05). The Apgar score at the 1, 5 and 10 minutes after birth combined with arterial blood gas analysis (pH and BE) within 6 hours after birth had high predictive value for the prognosis of asphyxiated newborns, with the area under receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of 0.79, sensitivity of 68.4% and specificity of 90.3%. Multivariate regression analysis showed that meconium stained amniotic fluid ( OR=4.501, 95% CI: 1.262-16.056), lung damage ( OR=5.004, 95% CI: 1.007-24.866) and brain damage ( OR=10.786, 95% CI: 2.726-42.673) were independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of neonatal asphyxia ( P<0.05). Conclusions:In Tibet, there are many factors affecting the poor prognosis of neonatal asphyxia. High attention and intervention should be given to mothers in perinatal period and asphyxiated newborns in order to reduce the incidence of poor prognosis of neonatal asphyxia.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the influential factors of neonatal hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), and compare the therapeutic effects of mild hypothermia at different time windows and between different degrees of disease severity.Methods:Eighty-two neonates with HIE who were admitted to Jiaxing Maternity and Child Health Care Hospital from January 2016 to October 2021 were included in the patient group, and 123 concurrent healthy neonates were included in the control group. The influential factors of neonatal HIE were analyzed. Sixty-five neonates who received HIE were divided into four groups according to the time length between symptom onset and hospital admission (< 6 hours and 6-12 hours) and disease severity: group I (admission time < 6 hours, mild, n = 20), group II (admission time < 6 hours, moderate to severe, n = 15), group III (admission time 6-12 hours, mild, n = 17), and group IV (admission time 6-12 hours, moderate to severe, n = 13). Amplitude-integrated electroencephalography (aGGE) score was used as the evaluation criteria. The therapeutic effects of mild hypothermia were compared between different time windows and between different degrees of HIE. Results:Multivariable logistic regression analysis results revealed that the influential factors of neonatal HIE included gestational hypertension, gestational diabetes, pregnancy examination, delivery methods, amniotic fluid contamination, abnormal fetal membranes (placenta or umbilical cord), fetal distress, and neonatal asphyxia ( P < 0.05). All 65 neonates with HIE underwent mild hypothermia treatment for 72 hours. Before treatment, aGGE score in groups I, II, III and IV was 6.02 ± 1.74 points, 2.43 ± 1.82 points, 5.23 ± 1.95 points, and 2.72 ± 1.76 points, respectively. After treatment, it was 8.13 ± 2.03 points, 6.47 ± 1.87 points, 7.86 ± 1.92 points, and 3.52 ± 1.95 points, respectively. There was significant difference in aGGE score between before and after treatment in groups I, II and III ( t = 2.87, 3.55, 3.15, all P < 0.05). aGGE score in group IV did not differ significantly between before and after treatment ( P > 0.05). Before treatment, aGGE score in children with moderate to severe HIE was lower than that in children with mild HIE. After treatment, there was no significant difference in aGGE score between groups II and III ( P > 0.05). Conclusion:Pregnant women with gestational hypertension and gestational diabetes should be given intensive monitoring and learn HIE related knowledge to increase the frequency of prenatal examinations. If amniotic fluid contamination, abnormal fetal membranes (placenta or umbilical cord), fetal distress, or neonatal asphyxia occurs, timely monitoring and corresponding interventions should be given to the fetus. Mild hypothermia therapy has a certain therapeutic effect on different degrees of HIE. For moderate to severe neonates, treatment should be started within 6 hours to ensure the therapeutic effects of mild hypothermia.

ABSTRACT

Introdução: A hipotermia terapêutica é o tratamento indicado para encefalopatia moderada a grave em recém-nascidos. A terapia requer uma equipe de enfermagem capacitada e integrada, visando um cuidado qualificado, efetivo e seguro. Modelos teóricos têm sido desenvolvidos para auxiliar a incorporação de evidências científicas à prática dos enfermeiros, representando um desafio na área da saúde. A implementação de uma intervenção educativa, guiada pela estrutura i-PARIHS (Estrutura Integrada de Promoção da Ação na Implementação de Pesquisa em Serviços de Saúde), poderá preencher a lacuna entre a teoria e a prática, beneficiando a assistência e tornando os sujeitos ativos no manejo do recém-nascido em hipotermia terapêutica. Objetivo geral: avaliar o impacto de uma intervenção educativa, guiada pelo referencial teórico i-PARIHS, sobre o manejo do recém-nascido com asfixia perinatal em hipotermia terapêutica na unidade intensiva neonatal no conhecimento, atitudes e práticas de enfermeiros. Objetivos específicos: analisar o conhecimento, atitude e prática dos enfermeiros sobre o manejo do recém-nascido com asfixia perinatal em hipotermia terapêutica pré e pós-intervenção educativa; identificar as barreiras e facilitadores percebidos pelos enfermeiros sobre o manejo do recém-nascido com asfixia perinatal em hipotermia terapêutica na unidade intensiva neonatal; implementar uma intervenção educativa, guiada pelo referencial i-PARIHS, para melhorar o conhecimento, a atitude e a prática dos enfermeiros sobre o manejo do recém-nascido com asfixia perinatal em hipotermia terapêutica na unidade intensiva neonatal; comparar o conhecimento, atitude e prática dos enfermeiros após a intervenção educativa e os indicadores quanto ao manejo do recém-nascido com asfixia perinatal em hipotermia terapêutica. Método: trata-se de um estudo de intervenção, do tipo quase-experimental, realizado com 29 enfermeiros de uma unidade intensiva neonatal, referência no Rio de Janeiro. O desfecho principal: conhecimento, atitudes e práticas dos enfermeiros no manejo do recém-nascido com asfixia perinatal em hipotermia terapêutica na unidade intensiva neonatal A intervenção compreendeu três fases: pré-intervenção - intervenção educativa- pós-intervenção. A intervenção educativa contou com cinco encontros: "Asfixia Perinatal x Hipotermia Terapêutica", "Controle da temperatura", "Cuidados de enfermagem na HT: avaliação de dor", "Monitoramento neurológico" e "Cuidado Centrado na Família". Para a análise estatística utilizou-se de análise descritiva e aplicação dos testes Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney e Mc Nemar, sendo o nível de significância adotado de 0,05. Resultados: a análise dos resultados do pré e pós-teste demonstrou um incremento no escore de acertos das questões sobre conhecimento, atitude e prática dos enfermeiros no manejo do recém-nascido submetido à hipotermia terapêutica na unidade intensiva neonatal, apresentando significância estatística para a maioria dos itens. Para a inovação foram construídos lembretes, fluxo de admissão para recém-nascido da instituição e uma cartilha para os pais como produto da intervenção com os enfermeiros. Conclusão: O resultado das auditorias realizadas, após a implementação das evidências, constatou uma transformação positiva da prática dos enfermeiros. A utilização da estrutura i-PARIHS evidenciou a necessidade e o valor de investir no engajamento das partes interessadas, na avaliação colaborativa do contexto e na cocriação de inovação usando facilitação qualificada. A intervenção educativa, guiada pela estrutura i-PARIHS, mostrou ter impacto no manejo do recém-nascido submetido à hipotermia terapêutica por enfermeiros.


Introduction: Therapeutic hypothermia is the currently indicated treatment for moderate to severe encephalopathy in newborns. Therapy requires a trained and integrated nursing team, aiming at qualified, effective and safe care. Theoretical models have been developed to help the incorporation of scientific evidence into nurses' practice, representing a challenge in the health area. The implementation of an educational intervention, guided by the i-PARIHS (Integrated Promoting Action on Research Implementation in Health Services Framework) framework, can fill the gap between theory and professional practice, benefiting care and making subjects active in the management of newborns with therapeutic hypothermia. General objective: to evaluate the impact of an educational intervention guided by the theoretical framework i-PARIHS, on the management of newborns with perinatal asphyxia in therapeutic hypothermia in the neonatal intensive care unit on the knowledge, attitudes and practices of nurses. Specific objectives: to analyze the knowledge, attitude and practice of nurses on the management of newborns with perinatal asphyxia in pre- and post-educational therapeutic hypothermia; to identify barriers and facilitators perceived by nurses on the management of newborns with perinatal asphyxia in therapeutic hypothermia in the neonatal intensive care unit; implement an educational intervention, guided by the i-PARIHS framework, to improve nurses' knowledge, attitude and practice on the management of newborns with perinatal asphyxia in therapeutic hypothermia in the neonatal intensive care unit and compare the knowledge, attitude and practice of nurses after the participatory educational intervention program and indicators regarding the management of newborns with perinatal asphyxia in therapeutic hypothermia. Method: this is a quasi-experimental intervention study carried out with 29 nurses from a neonatal intensive care unit, a reference in Rio de Janeiro. The main outcome: knowledge, attitudes and practices of nurses in the management of newborns with perinatal asphyxia in therapeutic hypothermia in the neonatal intensive unit The intervention comprised three phases: pre-intervention - educational intervention - post-intervention. The educational intervention had five meetings: "Perinatal Asphyxia x Therapeutic Hypothermia", "Temperature control", "Nursing care in HT: pain assessment", "Neurological monitoring" and "Family-Centered Care". For the statistical analysis, descriptive analysis and application of the Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney and Mc Nemar tests were used, with the adopted significance level of 0.05. Results: the analysis of pre- and post-test results showed an increase in the correct score of questions about nurses' knowledge and practices in the management of newborns submitted to therapeutic hypothermia in the neonatal intensive care unit, showing statistical significance for most items. For innovation, reminders, admission flow for newborns at the institution and a booklet for parents were created as a product of the intervention with nurses. Conclusion: The result of the audits carried out, after the implementation of the evidence, found a positive transformation of the nurses' practice. Using the i-PARIHS framework highlighted the need and value of investing in stakeholder engagement, collaborative context assessment, and co-creation of innovation using qualified facilitation. The educational intervention guided by the i-PARIHS framework was shown to have an impact on the management of newborns with perinatal asphyxia in therapeutic hypothermia by nurses.

ABSTRACT

Resumen: El síndrome de QT largo adquirido puede ser secundario a la hipotermia, tanto accidental como terapéutica. Es poco el conocimiento sobre el efecto de ésta en la actividad eléctrica cardíaca, sobre todo en recién nacidos, y sus potenciales complicaciones. Se presenta el caso clínico de un recién nacido con diagnóstico de encefalopatía hipóxico isquémica que presenta una prolongación del intervalo QT durante el tratamiento con hipotermia. Se discute la evolución del paciente, que es consistente con lo referido en la literatura sobre el tema: buena evolución, ausencia de arritmias graves o alteraciones hemodinámicas, y normalización del electrocardiograma luego de finalizado el tratamiento.


Summary: Acquired long QT syndrome may be secondary to hypothermia, both accidental and therapeutic. There is not enough knowledge about the effect of hypothermia in cardiac activity and its potential complications, especially in newborns. We present the clinical case of a newborn with a diagnosis of hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy who has a prolonged QT interval during treatment with hypothermia. The evolution of the patient is discussed, which is consistent with what is referred to in the literature on the subject: Good evolution, absence of serious arrhythmias or hemodynamic alterations, and normalization of the ECG after the end of treatment.


Resumo: A síndrome do QT longo adquirida pode ser secundária à hipotermia, tanto acidental quanto terapêutica. Pouco se sabe sobre seu efeito na atividade elétrica cardíaca, principalmente em recém-nascidos, e suas possíveis complicações. Apresentamos o relato de caso clínico de um recém-nascido com diagnóstico de encefalopatia hipóxica isquêmica que apresenta prolongamento do intervalo QT durante o tratamento com hipotermia. Discutimos a evolução do paciente, a que é consistente com a literatura sobre o assunto: boa evolução, ausência de arritmias graves ou alterações hemodinâmicas e normalização do ECG após o término do tratamento.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate the effects of the second generation laryngeal mask airway (LMA) under general anesthesia on maternal and neonatal outcomes in cesarean delivery.Methods:This study retrospectively enrolled 544 patients who underwent cesarean delivery under general anesthesia with airway intervention in Peking University First Hospital between January 2015 and December 2019. Patients were divided into endotracheal tube group (ETT group, n=379) and LMA group (Supreme TM LMA, n=165) according to the airway devices used under general anesthesia. Propensity score matching was carried out using a multivariable logistic regression model and 133 cases of singleton pregnancies were matched in each group. The main outcome was the incidence of neonatal asphyxia at one minute after birth (1 min Apgar score ≤7). The secondary neonatal outcomes were the incidence of severe asphyxia at one minute after birth (1 min Apgar score ≤3) and asphyxia at five minutes after birth (5 min Apgar score ≤7) and the percentage of neonates transferred to neonatal intensive care unit. The secondary maternal outcomes included the incidence of regurgitation, aspiration and hypoxemia, the percentage transferred to intensive care unit, post-operation all-cause morbidity and fatality before discharge. Two independent samples t-test, Mann-Whitney U test and Chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. Results:Two of the 544 (0.4%) patients had difficulty in intubation and one of them was successfully ventilated with LMA after failed intubation. No regurgitation, aspiration or anesthesia-related death was reported. After the propensity score matching, the incidence of neonatal asphyxia at one minute after birth in the LMA group and the ETT group had no significant difference [15.8% (21/133) vs 19.5% (26/133), χ2=0.646, P=0.422]. Moreover, there were no differences between the LMA and ETT group regarding the incidence of severe asphyxia at one minute after birth [2.3% (3/133) vs 3.0% (4/133), χ2<0.001, P>0.999] or asphyxia at five minutes after birth [4.5% (6/133) vs 4.5% (6/133), χ2<0.001, P>0.999], neonatal intensive care unit admission [27.8% (37/133) vs 38.3% (51/133), χ2=3.328, P=0.068], maternal hypoxemia during the operation [1.5% (2/133) vs 4.5% (6/133), χ2=1.160, P=0.281], maternal intensive care unit admission [3.8% (5/133) vs 9.0% (12/133), χ2=3.079, P=0.079] or post-operation all-cause morbidity [2.3% (3/133) vs 2.3% (3/133), χ2=0.171, P=0.680]. Conclusions:Like tracheal intubation, the second generation LMA (Supreme TM) can be used in cesarean section under general anesthesia without increasing the risk of adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To observe the clinical effect of continuous epidural anesthesia on labor analgesia and its effect on pregnancy outcome.@*Methods@#From July 2017 to June 2018, 110 hospitalized women giving birth in the Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital of Zhuji were selected and randomly divided into two groups according to the digital table, with 55 cases in each group.The control group was given conventional treatment.The observation group was treated with continuous epidural anesthesia for labor analgesia.The duration of labor, analgesic effect, delivery outcome, adverse reactions and neonatal status were compared between the two groups.@*Results@#The active time [(231.76±82.08)min], the second stage of labor [(63.94±22.56)min], and the total stage of labor [(309.42±120.15)min] in the observation group were all shorter than those in the control group[(275.62±85.31)min, (91.05±26.27)min, (380.84±121.63)min], and the differences were statistically significant(t=2.748, 5.806, 3.098, P=0.007, 0.001, 0.003). The analgesia satisfaction of the observation group was 100.00%(55/55), which was higher than 83.64%(46/55) of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant(χ2=9.802, P=0.002). In the observation group, the amount of vaginal bleeding [(241.62±30.54)mL], analgesic effect time [(62.80±11.96)s] were better than those in the control group[(270.55±40.83)mL, (135.18±20.73)s], and the differences were statistically significant(t=4.208, 22.429, P=0.001, 0.001). The rate of natural birth in the observation group was 87.27%(48/55), which was higher than that in the control group[70.91%(39/55)], and the difference was statistically significant(χ2=4.453, P=0.035). The incidence of neonatal distress in the observation group was 1.82%(1/55), and the incidence of asphyxia was 3.64%(2/55), which were lower than those in the control group [12.73%(7/55), 16.36%(9/55)], the differences were statistically significant(χ2=4.853, 4.950, P=0.028, 0.026).@*Conclusion@#Continuous epidural anesthesia in parturient analgesia can shorten the labor process and achieve satisfactory analgesic effect, which is helpful to improve the outcome of labor and neonatal condition.

ABSTRACT

SUMMARY INTRODUCTION The possibility that hypothermia has a therapeutic role during or after resuscitation from severe perinatal asphyxia has been a longstanding focus of research. Studies designed around this fact have shown that moderate cerebral hypothermia, initiated as early as possible, has been associated with potent, long-lasting neuroprotection in perinatal patients. OBJECTIVES To review the benefits of hypothermia in improving cellular function, based on the cellular characteristics of hypoxic-ischemic cerebral injury and compare the results of two different methods of cooling the brain parenchyma. METHODS Medline, Lilacs, Scielo, and PubMed were searched for articles registered between 1990 and 2019 in Portuguese and English, focused on trials comparing the safety and effectiveness of total body cooling with selective head cooling with HIE. RESULTS We found that full-body cooling provides homogenous cooling to all brain structures, including the peripheral and central regions of the brain. Selective head cooling provides a more extensive cooling to the cortical region of the brain than to the central structures. CONCLUSIONS Both methods demonstrated to have neuroprotective properties, although full-body cooling provides a broader area of protection. Recently, head cooling combined with some body cooling has been applied, which is the most promising approach. The challenge for the future is to find ways of improving the effectiveness of the treatment.


RESUMO INTRODUÇÃO A possibilidade de a hipotermia ter um papel terapêutico durante ou após a reanimação da asfixia perinatal grave tem sido um foco de pesquisa de longa data. Estudos desenhados em torno desse fato mostraram que a hipotermia cerebral moderada, iniciada o mais cedo possível, tem sido associada à neuroproteção potente e duradoura em espécies perinatais. OBJETIVOS Resumidamente, analisar os benefícios da hipotermia na melhoria da função celular, com base nas características celulares da lesão cerebral hipóxico-isquêmica e comparar os resultados de dois métodos diferentes de resfriamento do parênquima cerebral. MATERIAL E MÉTODOS Medline, Lilacs, SciELO e PubMed foram pesquisados para artigos registrados entre 1990 e 2019 nos idiomas português e inglês, com foco em estudos comparando segurança e eficácia do resfriamento corporal total com o resfriamento seletivo da cabeça com EHI. RESULTADOS Descobrimos que o resfriamento de corpo inteiro fornece resfriamento homogêneo para todas as estruturas cerebrais, incluindo as regiões periférica e central do cérebro. O resfriamento seletivo da cabeça fornece um resfriamento mais amplo para a região cortical do cérebro do que para as estruturas centrais. CONCLUSÕES Ambos os métodos demonstraram ter propriedades neuroprotetoras, embora o resfriamento de corpo inteiro forneça uma área mais ampla de proteção. Recentemente, o resfriamento da cabeça combinado com algum resfriamento corporal foi aplicado e essa é a maneira mais promissora. O desafio para o futuro é encontrar formas de melhorar a eficácia do tratamento.

ABSTRACT

Introducción: La reanimación neonatal demanda dispositivos para apoyo respiratorio que no siempre se encuentran en áreas rurales. Se requieren dispositivos innovadores y el prototipado rápido permite generarlos usando diseños e impresoras tridimensionales (3D). Objetivo: Evaluar el desempeño no clínico y la aceptabilidad por el personal de salud de un dispositivo respiratorio neonatal producido mediante prototipado rápido. Métodos: Estudio observacional, descriptivo, de prueba de concepto desarrollado en dos etapas. Etapa 1: Fabricación del dispositivo con prototipado rápido en impresoras y escáneres tridimensionales (3D). Etapa 2: Demostración del dispositivo durante programas de capacitación en reanimación neonatal para personal de salud en tres regiones del Perú (Tarapoto, Huánuco y Ayacucho). En ambas etapas se evaluó el desempeño del dispositivo conectado a un analizador de flujo de gases. Se administró una encuesta a los trabajadores de salud de Tarapoto y Ayacucho para conocer su aceptabilidad. Resultados: El prototipo desarrollado tiene forma de T con dos fuelles laterales que al presionarse con una sola mano, proyectan aire por el centro hacia un adaptador facial. El uso del prototipo en laboratorio generó un flujo de aire promedio de 4,8 Lt/min (DE ± 1,7) y una presión promedio de 5,9 cm H2O (DE ± 1,4). Este dispositivo fue considerado como "de uso muy simple" en una encuesta de aceptabilidad donde participaron 39 enfermeras y 11 médicos en zonas alejadas de la capital del Perú. Conclusiones: El prototipo evaluado fue aceptado por el personal y tuvo un desempeño capaz de generar un estímulo de la respiración espontánea al nacer.


Introduction: Neonatal resuscitation demands equipment for respiratory support not always available in rural areas. Innovative devices are required, and rapid prototyping allows to generate them using three-dimensional (3D) designs and printers. Objective: To evaluate the non-clinical performance and the acceptability by health personnel of a neonatal respiratory device produced by rapid prototyping. Methods: Observational study, descriptive, of proof of concept developed in two steps. Step 1: Manufacture of the device with rapid prototyping in three-dimensional (3D) scanners and printers. Step 2: Demonstration of the invention during training programs in neonatal resuscitation for health personnel in three regions of Peru (Tarapoto, Huánuco and Ayacucho). In both steps, we evaluated the performance of the device connected to a gas flow analyser. A survey was administered to the health workers of Tarapoto and Ayacucho to know their acceptability. Results: The developed prototype is T-shaped with two side bellows that, when pressed with one hand, project air through the centre towards a facial adapter. The use of the prototype in the laboratory generated an average air flow of 4.8 Lt /min (SD ± 1.7) and an average pressure of 5.9 cm H2O (SD ± 1.4). This device was considered to be "very simple to use" in an acceptability survey involving 39 nurses and 11 doctors in remote areas of the capital of Peru. Conclusions: The evaluated prototype is acceptable by the staff and has a performance capable of generating spontaneous breathing at birth.

ABSTRACT

Introducción: La depresión neonatal es una de las causas más frecuentes de ingreso de recién nacidos a unidades especializadas de atención neonatal. La asfixia perinatal es una de las causas de bajo puntaje de Apgar, siendo uno de los criterios clínicos para su diagnóstico. Los principales factores de riesgo vinculados con bajos puntajes de Apgar pueden ser maternos (edad, patologías obstétricas, nivel socioeconómico, adicciones, etc.), del trabajo de parto y parto o, alteraciones fetales. Objetivos: Determinar los factores perinatales asociados a la baja puntuación de Apgar a los 5 minutos. Diseño: Estudio retrospectivo de casos y controles en los años 2015 y 2016. Institución: Hospital de la Mujer, Centro Hospitalario Pereira Rossell, Montevideo, Uruguay. Participantes: Se incluyeron todos los recién nacidos término con Apgar a los 5 minutos menor o igual a 5. Resultados: Hubo un total de 12.528 nacimientos de recién nacidos vivos de término en el HM. 34 casos de recién nacidos con Apgar a los 5 minutos menor o igual a 5. Esto corresponde al 0,27% de la población. No se identificaron diferencias estadísticamente significativas en cuanto a los principales factores asociados a asfixia perinatal. Conclusiones: En el análisis de esta población, la mayoría de los factores analizados no se asocia con los casos de Apgar a los 5 minutos menor o igual a 5 (depresión neonatal moderada-severa), por lo que la mayoría de estos casos pueden no ser evitables.


Introduction: Neonatal depression is one of the most frequent causes of admission of newborns to specialized units of neonatal care. Perinatal asphyxia is one of the causes of low Apgar score, and it is one of the clinical criteria for its diagnosis. Main risk factors associated with low Apgar scores can be maternal (age, obstetric pathologies, socioeconomic level, addictions, etc.), of labor and delivery or, fetal alterations. Objective: To determine the perinatal factors associated with the low Apgar score at 5 minutes. Design: Retrospective study of cases and controls in 2015 and 2016. Institution: Maternity, Women Hospital, Centro Hospitalario Pereira Rossell, Montevideo, Uruguay. Patients: We included all term newborns with Apgar at 5 minutes less than or equal to 5. Results: There was a total of 12,528 births of term full-term newborns in the HM. 34 cases of newborns with Apgar at 5 minutes less than or equal to 5. This corresponds to 0.27% of the population. No statistically significant differences were identified regarding the main factors associated with perinatal asphyxia. Conclusions: In the analysis of this population, most of the analyzed factors are not associated with cases of Apgar at 5 minutes less than or equal to 5 (moderate-severe neonatal depression), so that most of these cases may not be avoidable.

ABSTRACT

Perinatal asphyxia is a leading cause of preventable brain injury. Between four and nine million newborns develop birth asphyxia. It is estimated that 1.2 million evolve to death and at least the same number develops important disabling neurological sequels. These children need to be accompanied by experts, especially in the first year of life. The continuity of care after hospital discharge should be guaranteed so that there is follow-up care to those who are at increased risk of morbidity and mortality. To identify factors associated with dropout of outpatient specialized treatment of children diagnosed with perinatal asphyxia. The study was conducted in neonatal care clinic specializing in a reference hospital for high-risk births in the state of Sergipe. 98 children with perinatal asphyxia discharged from the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit of this hospital participated in the study. Results: the children who were followed up were between two months to two years old, and predominantly male 69. Ten children were discharged at age 24 months and had important neurological sequels. Thirty-one children were discharged aged 10 to 20 months without deficit and 35 remained in regular monitoring. There was a record of 22 cases of noncompliance, before the sixth medical consultation. Among the reasons for the doctor following the abandonment of the follow-up service, there were more reasons regarding the absence of symptoms (and distance from home). The absence of symptoms and distance from the capital were associated with the abandonment of outpatient treatment of anoxic children. Outpatient services should be organized to minimize the follow-up abandon situations. (AU)


Asfixia perinatal é uma das principais causas de lesão cerebral evitável. Cerca de quatro a nove milhões de recém-nascidos desenvolvem asfixia ao nascer. Estima-se que 1,2 milhão evoluem para óbito e desenvolvem sequelas neurológicas incapacitantes. Essas crianças precisam ser acompanhadas por especialistas, principalmente no primeiro ano de vida. A continuidade da assistência após a alta hospitalar deve ser garantida para que haja seguimento do cuidado aos que apresentam maior risco de morbimortalidade. Identificar fatores associados ao abandono do tratamento ambulatorial especializado de crianças diagnosticadas com asfixia perinatal. Estudo desenvolvido no ambulatório de assistência neonatal de uma maternidade referência para partos de alto risco no estado de Sergipe. Participaram do estudo 98 crianças anoxiadas egressas da Unidade de Terapia Intensiva Neonatal dessa maternidade. As crianças acompanhadas tinham entre dois meses a dois anos, predominantemente do sexo masculino 69. Dez crianças receberam alta por idade aos 24 meses, apresentando sequelas neurológicas importantes. Trinta e uma crianças receberam alta entre 10 a 20 meses sem déficit e 35 mantiveram-se em acompanhamento regular. Houve o registro de 22 casos de abandono do tratamento, antes da sexta consulta médica. Entre os motivos para o abandono do seguimento no serviço de follow-up, predominaram a ausência de sintomas e a distância do domicílio. A ausência de sintomas e a distância da capital estiveram associadas ao abandono de tratamento ambulatorial de crianças anoxiadas. Os serviços ambulatoriais devem estar organizados para minimizar situações de abandono do seguimento. (AU)

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Determinar si las alteraciones en la ecografía transfontanelar es factor pronóstico para alteraciones del desarrollo motor durante los 2 primeros años de vida en neonatos a término diagnosticados con Encefalopatía Hipóxico-Isquémica, atendidos en el Hospital Regional Docente Las Mercedes y el Hospital Nacional Almanzor Aguinaga Asenjo, durante el periodo 2015-2017. Material y métodos: estudio analítico, que se incluyeron 43 infantes con el antecedente de Encefalopatía Hipóxico-Isquémica que contaban con ecografía transfontanelar tomada en los primeros 7 días de vida, de quiénes se recolectó información mediante historias clínicas y entrevistas. Se evaluó el desarrollo motor grueso a los 2 años de edad mediante el test de "Sistema de Evaluación de la Función Motriz Gruesa". Resultados: De los 43 participantes, 29 (65,12%) presentaron alteraciones ecográficas y 14 (32,56%), tuvieron alteraciones motoras. De los 14 participantes que tuvieron alteración de la función motriz gruesa, la hemorragia intraventricular y el edema cerebral fueron las más frecuentes, afectando cada una a 6 infantes (42,9%). La relación entre ambas variables (hallazgos ecográficos y alteraciones motoras gruesas) fue significativamente estadística (IC 95%, p<0,05). Conclusión: Las alteraciones en la ecografía transfontanelar son factor pronóstico para déficit en el desarrollo motor grueso durante los 2 primeros años de vida en neonatos a término con diagnóstico de Encefalopatía Hipóxico Isquémica.(AU)


Objetive: Determine if the alterations in the transfontanelar ultrasound is a prognostic factor for motor development alterations during the first 2 years of life in term infants diagnosed with Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy, seen at the Las Mercedes Regional Hospital and the Almanzor Aguinaga National Hospital Asenjo, during the period 2015-2017. Material and methods: Analytical study, which included 43 infants with a history of Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy who had transfontanel ultrasound taken in the first 7 days of life, from whom information was collected through clinical histories and interviews. The gross motor development at 2 years of age was evaluated by means of the "Thick Motor Function Assessment System" test. Results: Of the 43 participants, 29 (65.12%) presented ultrasonographic alterations and 14 (32.56%) had motor alterations. Of the 14 participants who had impaired gross motor function, intraventricular hemorrhage and cerebral edema were the most frequent, each affecting 6 infants (42.9%). The relationship between both variables (echographic findings and gross motor alterations) was statistically significant (95% CI, p <0.05). Conclusion: Alterations in transfontanel ultrasound are a prognostic factor for deficit in gross motor development during the first 2 years of life in term neonates with a diagnosis of Ischemic Hypoxic Encephalopathy.(AU)

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE To analyze the association of characteristics recorded at the time of birth, including weight, occurrence of asphyxia, gestation duration, maternal age and education level, with death from diseases or malformations of the circulatory system in children under 18 years of age. METHODS The Brazilian Information System on Live Births and Information System on Mortality databases were linked and evaluated following a longitudinal cohort analysis strategy. The following independent variables were evaluated: characteristics recorded at the time of birth, including weight, occurrence of asphyxia, gestation duration, maternal age and education level. Dependent variables were death from diseases or malformations of the circulatory system in children under 18 years of age. Crude relative risks were estimated and relative risks were adjusted for the variables. RESULTS 6,380 deaths were linked to 4,282,260 birth records, yielding 5,062 pairs considered as true. Low birth weight (RR = 2.26), asphyxia at 1 (RR = 1.72) and 5 minutes (RR = 1.51), prematurity (RR = 1.50), maternal age ≥ 40 years (RR = 2.06), and low maternal education level (RR = 1.45) increased the probability of death caused by circulatory system diseases. In the association with death by malformations of the circulatory system, the predictive variables showed the same association profile, but with greater intensity. CONCLUSIONS Fetal and maternal factors are associated with increased mortality due to diseases and malformations of the circulatory system. Measures to control these factors and improve access to their diagnosis and treatment would contribute to reducing the number of deaths caused by diseases and malformations of the circulatory system. However, the identification of environmental influences during gestation and birth on the risk of death should be carefully considered due to being influenced by genetic factors.

ABSTRACT

Multidisciplinary team cooperation was highlighted in Neonatal Resuscitation Program (7th edition), which combining with effective team communication were considered as the essential skills during neonatal resuscitation. The key points of the multidisciplinary team cooperation were the identification of the team leader, mutual support, communication, correct records, and reports after resuscitation. It is of great importance to master the crucial skills, emphasize simulation training of the team cooperation, and strengthen the multidisciplinary team cooperation in decreasing the incidence of neonatal asphyxia.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the incidence and risk factors of neonatal asphyxia in Hubei Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture. Methods Live born infants, including those diagnosed with neonatal asphyxia, were recruited from 16 different hospitals in Hubei Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture from January to December of 2016. The 16 hospitals included four grade A tertiary hospitals (three general hospitals and one traditional Chinese medicine hospital) and 12 grade A secondary hospitals (eight general hospitals, one maternal and child health hospital and three traditional Chinese medicine hospitals). A retrospective investigation was conducted using questionnaire to analyze the basic information, perinatal risk factors and prognosis of those infants. Chi-square test was used for statistical analysis. Results Among 22 294 recruited live born infants, 733 (3.29%) were diagnosed with neonatal asphyxia on discharge, including 627 (85.54%) mild cases and 106 (14.46%) severe cases. And neonatal asphyxia resulted in deaths of 27 cases (3.68%). The risk factors for neonatal asphyxia included multiple pregnancy, pregnancy conceived with assisted reproductive technology, premature infant, low birth weight infant, fetal malposition, congenital malformation, male infant, born during transfer, mother of Tujia nationality, low educational level (primary school or lower), living in rural area, the number of antenatal visits ≤3, history of early threatened abortion, anemia in pregnancy, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, chorioamnionitis, abnormal pregnancy history and abnormality of umbilical cord, amniotic fluid or placenta. Conclusions The incidence of neonatal asphyxia in Enshi area is obviously higher than the national average. The main risk factors for neonatal asphyxia in this area are related to maternal background and the living condition of the mother during pregnancy, delivery as well as the newborn at birth.

ABSTRACT

La encefalopatía hipóxica-isquémica es un síndrome bien definido que afecta a los recién nacidos a término debido a asfixia fetal al nacer. La incidencia es 1-8 de cada 1000 nacidos en países desarrollados y asciende hasta 25 cada 1000 nacidos en países en desarrollo. Las causas más frecuentes son desprendimiento de la placenta, prolapso del cordón umbilical y rotura uterina. El criterio diagnóstico incluye incapacidad parcial o total del recién nacido para llorar y respirar al ser estimulado que requiere ventilación asistida en la sala de partos, Apgar < 5 en 5 y 10 minutos, acidemia (pH ≤ 7 y/o déficit de bases ≥ 12 mmol/l), alteraciones del estado de vigilia/sueño, de los reflejos primitivos y estiramiento muscular y tono muscular. En la forma leve la recuperación es total en tres días y sin (o con mínimas) secuelas de neurodesarrollo. En las formas moderadas y graves existen déficits neurológicos permanentes y alteraciones del neurodesarrollo (48%), 27% mueren y 25% son normales. El EEG regular o amplitud integrada y la resonancia magnética y espectroscópica realizados entre las 24 y las 96 horas y los 7 y 21 días de nacido respectivamente tienen un gran valor diagnóstico y pronóstico. Se recomienda hipotermia corporal (33.5 °C por 72 horas) antes de las 6 horas de nacido en las formas moderadas y graves. El resultado es una disminución de la mortalidad (de 35% a 27%) y de la morbilidad (de 48% a 27%).


Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy is a clearly recognizable clinical syndrome of in term newborns due to fetal asphyxia at birth. The incidence is 1.5 (95% CI 1.3 to 1.7) but it ranges from 1-8 and 25 out of every 1000 born in developed and developing countries, respectively. The most frequent causes are detachment of the placenta, prolapse of the umbilical cord and uterine rupture. The diagnostic criteria include partial or total incapacity for the newborn to cry and breath at birth even when stimulated, requiring assisted ventilation in the delivery room, Apgar < 5 in 5 and 10 minutes, acidemia (pH ≤ 7 and / or bases deficit ≥ 12 mmol/l), alterations of the conscience and the reflexes of Moro, grasping and suction, muscular stretching and muscle tone. The clinical forms are mild, moderate and severe. In the mild forms, the recovery is total in three days without, or with minimal, neurodevelopmental alterations. The moderate and severe forms cause permanent neurological deficits and neurodevelopmental alterations (48%) or death (27%). The regular or amplitude integrated EEG and the magnetic and spectroscopic magnetic resonance imaging performed between 24 and 96 hours and 7 and 21 days after birth, respectively, have a high diagnostic and prognostic value. Induced hypothermia (33.5° C for 72 hours) is recommended before 6 hours old. The result is a decrease in mortality (from 35% to 27%) and morbidity (from 48% to 27%).
