Abstract

Estimate of efficiency of newborns with severe birth asphyxia treatment using systemic therapeutic hypothermia. a retrospective open-controlled clinical research with a resolution of the Ethics;Committee performed in 33 neonates born in asphyxia and treated at the NICU All newborns due to the presence of indications, overall controlled hypothermia was conducted according to the approved protocol, using the apparatus Allon 2001". The neurological status at admission: Sarnat II was detected in 60.6% (20) children; Sarnat III was detected in 39.4% (13) children. The correlation ofApgar scores with the most severe hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy. Pupillary reflexes admission absent in 48.5% (16) newborns. Convulsions within first hours of lfe were observed in 57.6% (19) newborns. Convulsions within I day of life were observed in 81.8 % (27) newborns. The correlation of the amniotic infection (AI) and meconium aspiration syndrome (MAS) treatment using high-frequency mechanical ventilation (p<0,05) and prolongation of mechanical ventilation for more than 5 days (p<0,01). At the beginning of systemic hypothermia fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2), mean airway pressure (MAP), respiratory rate (RR) were down to the 12th hour of life and...Continue Reading
