Description
An account of the resource
INTRODUCTION: The increasing survival rate of preterm infants has altered the epidemiology of neonatal diseases; however, neonatal mortality is still the main component of child mortality. The objective of this study was to evaluate neonatal mortality and associated factors in newborn infants admitted to a neonatal care unit. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Prospective cohort study conducted between January 2016 and January 2017 at Hospital Civil de Guadalajara "Dr. Juan I. Menchaca." The incidence of deaths and associated conditions was evaluated using a multivariate logistic regression analysis. RESULTS: A total of 9366 live births were registered; 15% (n: 1410) of these were admitted to the neonatal care unit. The mortality rate was 125.5 per 1000 hospitalized newborn infants (95% confidence interval [CI]: 109-144); the main reasons for admission were congenital malformations or genetic disorders (28.2%), infections (24.9%), and respiratory distress (20.9%). The conditions associated with death were gestational age < 37 weeks (OR: 2.41, 95% CI: 1.49-3.93), birth weight < 1500 grams (OR: 6.30, 95% CI: 4.15-9.55), moderate/severe respiratory distress at 10 minutes (OR: 1.89, 95% CI: 1.24-2.86), Apgar score < 7 at 5 minutes (OR: 9.40, 95% CI: 5.76-15.31), congenital malformations (OR: 5.52, 95% CI: 3.12-9.78), and less than 5 antenatal care visits (OR: 1.51, 95% CI: 1.09-2.08). CONCLUSIONS: Preterm birth, low birth weight, respiratory distress, Apgar score < 7, congenital malformations, and a history of < 5 antenatal care visits were associated with a higher risk for death.
