Meanings of unspecified severity of birth asphyxia in liveborn infant in English

Intrauterine growth retardation is associated with an increased risk of fetal asphyxia as well as greater perinatal morbidity and mortality.

Unfortunately, this relationship between maternal thyroid dysfunction and perinatal depression is not well studied.

Results: In the 3867 women in the study, secondhand smoke exposure was positively associated with perinatal depression and suicidal ideation.

We hypothesised that perinatal depression was associated with early cessation of exclusive breastfeeding and reduced quantity of breast milk in rural Pakistan.

Conclusions and relevance: In this study, maternal perinatal depression, especially antenatal depression, was associated with the risk of depression in adolescence and adulthood.

Objectives: To determine the diagnostic accuracy, acceptability and cost-effectiveness of the Whooley questions and the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) to identify perinatal depression.

The high mortality rate could partly be explained by associated perinatal asphyxia.

These infants have many acute neonatal problems that include perinatal asphyxia, hypothermia, hypoglycemia, and polycythemia.

Introduction: Therapeutic hypothermia improves outcome after perinatal asphyxia.

Results: Of the 114 infants with perinatal asphyxia, 31 were lost to follow-up.

We analyzed distribution per body mass, gestational age, type of IUGR, gender and the frequency of perinatal asphyxia between the groups.

We describe newly born twins who presented with unexpected severe birth depression secondary to severe type IV glottic webs requiring extensive resuscitation and emergency tracheostomy.

Only some 5% of cerebral palsy is due to intrapartum asphyxia at term.

This may occur due to an obstetric catastrophe or through inadequate placental function leading to chronic intrapartum asphyxia.

SEPs may provide useful additional information when assessing the infant with birth asphyxia.

We can mitigate cortical visual impairment by limiting birth asphyxia and postnatal infections.

We also studied birth asphyxia by using data from the Nova Scotia Atlee Perinatal Database.

Correct use of neonatal resuscitators is critical to lower neonatal mortality rates due to birth asphyxia.

We conclude that International Classification of Diseases codes are not useful for surveillance of birth asphyxia.

There was no statistical difference in low birth weight, neonatal asphyxia, and PROM between the mothers with and without COVID-19.

The adverse birth outcomes were preterm birth, low birth weight, neonatal asphyxia, premature rupture of membrane (PROM), and cesarean section delivery.
