چکیده

Background: The APGAR scoring system, including conventional, expanded, and combined Apgar scores, has been used to evaluate the condition of the newborn in the first minutes of birth. Umbilical cord arterial blood gas analysis (UCABGA) is another method. We compared the combined Apgar score with UCABGA in predicting short-term outcomes in neonates. Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted on ۳۶۳ live births. Neonates with major congenital anomalies, congenital cyanotic heart disease, congenital metabolic disorders, and those who transferred to other hospitals were excluded. Admission, discharge, demographic data, and Apgar scores were recorded in a pre-designed form. After delivery, the umbilical cord was double-clamped, and an arterial blood sample was taken from the clamped part. Statistical analyses were done using SPSS version ۲۲ statistical software, and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the correlations between variables. Results: Out of ۳۵۰ Neonates (۲۰۴ male and ۱۴۶ female) with a mean gestational age of ۳۳.۳۷±۴.۱۲ weeks, ۲۶۳ (۷۵.۱%) neonates were admitted, and ۳۴ neonates (۹.۷%) died. Retinopathy of prematurity(ROP) and Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) were recognized in ۴۲ (۱۲%) and ۵۴ (۱۵.۴%) neonates, respectively, and ۳۷ ( ۱۰.۶%) neonates ventilated mechanically. ROC curves show higher sensitivity and Specificity of ۵th minute Combined Apgar score than PH and base deficit in predicting short-term outcomes except for IVH. Conclusion: The Combined Apgar score at minute ۵ is a better predictor than UCABGA in predicting Death, need for admission, retinopathy of prematurity, and need for mechanical ventilation. None are good predictors for IVH.

اطلاعات بیشتر در مورد COI

COI مخفف عبارت CIVILICA Object Identifier به معنی شناسه سیویلیکا برای اسناد است. COI کدی است که مطابق محل انتشار، به مقالات کنفرانسها و ژورنالهای داخل کشور به هنگام نمایه سازی بر روی پایگاه استنادی سیویلیکا اختصاص می یابد.

کد COI به مفهوم کد ملی اسناد نمایه شده در سیویلیکا است و کدی یکتا و ثابت است و به همین دلیل همواره قابلیت استناد و پیگیری دارد.
