ABSTRACT

A better understanding of risk factors for neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) admission can inform interventions to improve neonatal survival. This study aimed to describe a population of newborns admitted to a NICU in Amman, Jordan, and compare them with newborns discharged to home. Newborns born within 96 hours at Al-Bashir Hospital were enrolled from February 2010 to June 2011. Demographic and clinical data were collected for mothers and newborns. Of 5466 enrolled neonates, 373 (6.8%) were admitted to the NICU. The median gestational age of NICU infants was 36 weeks, median birth weight was 2.2 kg and 49.5% were delivered by non-elective caesarean section. Lower gestational age, lower birth weight, delivery by caesarean section and birth in the month of May were statistically significant risk factors for NICU admission. Risk factors for NICU admission were consistent with other populations worldwide; however, median gestational age and birth weight were higher than in developed countries.

ABSTRACT

A better understanding of risk factors for neonatal intensive care unit [NICU]admission can inform interventions to improve neonatal survival.This study aimed to describe a population of newborns admitted to a NICU in Amman Jordan,and compare them with newborns discharged to home.Newborns born within 96 hours at Al-Bashir Hospital were enrolled from February 2010 to June 2011.Demographic and clinical data were collected for mothers and newborns.Of 5466 enrolled neonates,373 [6.8%]were admitted to the NICU.The median gestational age of NICU infants was 36 weeks,median birth weight was 2.2 kg and 49.5% were delivered by non-elective caesarean section.Lower gestational age,lower birth weight,delivery by caesarean section and birth in the month of May were statistically significant risk factors for NICU admission.Risk factors for NICU admission were consistent with other populations worldwide;however,median gestational age and birth weight were higher than in developed countries


ان فهما افضل لعوامل خطر ادخال حديثي الولادة الى وحدة العنايه المركزة يمكن أن يرشد الى تدخلات تحسن من بقاء حديثي الولادة على قيد الحياه وقد هدفت هذه الدراسه الى بيان حاله مجموعة من حديثي الولادة الذين ادخلوا الى وحدة العنايه المركزة في عمان بالاردن ومقارنتهم مع حديثي الولادة خرجوا من المزل فتم تسجيل حديثي الولادة خلال 96 ساعه في مستشفي البشير استباقيا من شباط / فبراير 2010 حتى حزيران / يونيو 2011 وجمعت البيانات السكنيه والسريريه للامهات وحديثي الولادة من اصل 5466 حديثي ولادة مسجلين تم ادخال 373 (6.8%)الى وحدة العنايه المركزة وكان متوسط العمر الحملي للرضع الذين ادخلوا الى وحدة العنايه المركزة 36 اسبوعا ووسطى وزن الوليد 2.2 كجم وولد 49.5% منهم بعمليه قيصريه غير انتقائيه . انخفاض العمر الحملي وانخفاض وزن الوليد والولادة بعمليه قيصريه والولادة في شهر ايار/ مايو كانت عوامل خطر ذات دلالة احصائيه للادخال الى وحدة العناية المركزة . ان عوامل خطر ادخال حديثي الولادة الى وحدة العنايه المركزة كانت متماشيه مع شعوب اخري في العالم غير أن متوسط العمر الحملي ووزن حديثي الولادة كانا اعلى مما هما عليه في البلدان المتقدمة


Une meilleure comprehension des facteurs de risque pour ('admission en unite de soin intensifs neonatals permet d'orienter les interventions en vue d'arneliorer la survie des nouveau-nes.La presente etude avait pour objectif de decrire une population de nouveau-nes ad mis en unite de soins intensifs neonatals a Amman [Jordanie]et de mener une etude comparative avec des nouveau-nes rentres a domicile.Les nouveau-nes dont la naissance est survenue dans un laps de temps de 96 heures apres leur entree a Thopital Al-Bashir ont participe a I'etude entre fevrier 2010 et juin 2011.Des donnees demographiques et cliniques ont ete collectees pour les meres et les nouveau-nes.Sur 5 466 nouveau-nes,373 [6,8 %]ont ete admis en unite de soins intensifs neonatals.L'age gestationnel median des enfants admis dans I'unite etait de 36 semaines,le poids median a la naissance etait de 2,2 kg et 49,5 % d'entre eux etaient nes par cesarienne non elective.Un age gestationnel plus bas,un poids a la naissance plus faible,une naissance par cesarienne et la naissance au cours du mois de mai constituaient des facteurs de risque statistiquement significatifs pour une admission dans I'unite.Ces facteurs de risque co'mcidaient avec ceux d'autres populations dans le monde,mais Tage gestationnel et le poids a la naissance medians etaient plus eleves que dans les pays developpes
