RESUMEN

Objetivo:

Describir las principales características epidemiológicas de la retinopatía de la prematuridad en los neonatos del Hospital Nacional Arzobispo Loayza (HNAL) durante los años 2012 y 2013.

Diseño:

El estudio es descriptivo retrospectivo, y de corte transversal, cuyo análisis se realiza sobre una base de datos secundaria. Lugar Servicio de Neonatología del HNAL. Participantes Incluyó a los neonatos prematuros, atendidos en el HNAL durante los años 2012-2013 con peso al nacer menor a 2000g según el registro del Servicio de Neonatología.

Método:

Se incluyeron en el estudio 189 pacientes, estudiándose las, variables de peso al nacer, edad gestacional, diagnóstico de ROP, factores de riesgo y oxigenoterapia.

Resultados:

La incidencia de ROP fue de 25.92 por ciento. Se encontraron diferencias significativas en los promedios del peso al nacer y la edad gestacional entre los que presentaron ROP y los que no.

Conclusiones:

El peso al nacer menor a 1500g y/o una edad gestacional menor a 33 semanas son un alto factor de riesgo para desarrollar ROP sin embargo debe seguir realizándose el tamizaje con criterios acordes a nuestra realidad pues de lo contrario se perderían pacientes.
