ABSTRACT
Introduction:
to help reduce neonatal mortality in Burkina Faso, we identified the prognostic factors for neonatal mortality at the Sourô Sanou University Hospital.Methods:
we conducted a cross-sectional and analytical study in the neonatal department from July 25, 2019 to June 25, 2020. Patients' medical records, consultation and hospital records were reviewed. Prognostic factors for neonatal mortality were identified using a Cox model.Results:
data from 1128 newborn babies were analysed. Neonatal mortality was 29.8%. Most of these deaths (89%) occurred in the early neonatal period. The mean weight of newborns at the admission was 2,285.8 ± 878.7 and 43.6%. They were at a healthy weight. Four out of five newborns had been hospitalized for infection or prematurity. The place of delivery (HR weight <1000g = 5.45[3.81 -7.79]) and the principal diagnosis (HR asphyxiation= 1.64[1.30-2.08]) were prognostic factors for neonatal mortality.Conclusion:
improving technical facilities for the etiological investigation of infections and an efficient management of low-weight newborns suffering from respiratory distress would considerably reduce in-hospital neonatal mortality in Bobo-Dioulasso.Palavras-chave
