Prevalencia y factores asociados de hemorragia intraventricular en neonatos ingresados en la Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos Neonatales del Hospital General Guasmo Sur durante enero a junio del año 2017.

Abstract

Objectives: To determine the prevalence and risk factors of HIV in patients admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at “Guasmo Sur” Hospital, between January and June of 2017. Materials and Methods: Cross-sectional study, analytical, and retrospective performed at the NICU. This includes 204 neonates admitted between January and June of 2017. SPSS version 21.0 and Stata 14 were the softwares used for the statistical analysis. To demostrate the association, the Odds Ratios were calculated with 95% confidence range and later adjusted with logistic regression model. The P values less than 0,05 was statistically significant. Results: This study included a total of 204 newborns, 47 with intraventricular hemorrhage. The variables associated significantly with HIV were: dysmorphic syndrome (OR 36,35; P=0,007), dystocia presentation (OR 13,75; p=0,003), Rh incompatibility (OR 237,03; p=0,004), placental abruption (OR 15,760; p=0,023), alterations of amniotic fluid (OR 4,669; p=0,010), orotracheal intubation (OR 3,85; p=0,004), transfusion of blood products (OR 4,14; P=0,004). Conclusions: HIV prevalence of 23,03%, being Type 2 the most frequent. Gestational age and weight are directly related with HIV. Although complications were infrequent, ventricular dilatation post-hemorrhage was the most common.
