ABSTRACT
Comparing cord blood levels of total Creatine kinase (CK) and Creatine kinase MB isoenzyme (CK-MB) in newborns delivered by vaginal delivery and cesarean section. Study Design:
Descriptive prospective study. Place and Duration of Study All neonates delivered from September to October 2012 at the obstetric ward of Mousavi hospital. (Zanjan, Iran).Methodology:
Total cord blood CK (CK) and MB isoenzyme (CK-MB) was measured immediately after delivery. Rout of delivery and APGAR (Appearance, Pulse, Grimace, Activity, and Respiration) Score were also assessed and all data were analyzed by using SPSS 16.0 software.Results:
One hundred and seventy six newborns were recruited (57.4% male and 42.6% female). We found significant association between serum CK-MB level and rout of delivery. There was no significant association between serum levels of total Ck and CK-MB and APGAR score (p˃0.05). Discussion andconclusions:
This study showed that newborns who were vaginally delivered had elevated CK-MB levels.
