The status of newborn infants born to women with hypertensive disorders
Abstract
The status of 239 newborn infants born to mothers with hypertensive syndrome (a study group) and that of 51 neonates from healthy mothers (a control group) were analyzed. Neonatal mortality and morbidity rates were studied in relation to gestational age and the type and severity of hypertensive disorders. Hypertensive disorders in pregnancy were found to lead to still birth in 2,1% of cases, late miscarriage in 12,1%, prematurity in 47,7%, and intrauterine growth retardation in 27,6%. The incidence of diseases in the infants born to hypertensive mothers was 6,6 times higher than that in those from healthy mothers. The most common nosological entities among the newborn infants were intracranial hemorrhage (29,3%), respiratory distress syndrome (20,1%), hypoxic-ischemic brain damage (22,6%), polycythemia (8,4%), and hyperbihrubinemia (8,8%). Reproductive losses in hypertensive disorders accounted for 17,2% and occurred in 70,7% of cases in the early postnatal period. Severe pathology and prematurity are responsible for high neonatal morbidity and mortality rates.
