Co-relation Between Perinatal Asphyxia with Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy (PNA with HIE) and Blood Sugar Level

Introduction: Perinatal asphyxia is one of the most common primary causes of mortality and morbidity among neonates. Perinatal asphyxia will result in neonatal hypoxia and tissue/organ injury. Objective: The aim of this study was to observe the Co-relation between Perinatal asphyxia with Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy (PNA with HIE) and Blood sugar level. Methodology: This is a descriptive cross-sectional case study where a total of 182 neonates were admitted to the hospital with the problem of Perinatal asphyxia with Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy and with some other associated problem. Result: Among the cases, 114 (62.6%) were Boys and 68 (37.45%) Girls. The mean age was 29.72 ± 78.42, Weight 2.77 ± .60, RBS 6.57 ± 7.38. Among the asphyxiated neonates blood sugar levels in arterial cord blood were significantly lower and had a negative (r=−0.195, P<0.01) correlation with the severity of birth asphyxia and different stages of HIE. Conclusion: Perinatal asphyxia can result in neonatal hypoxia and tissue/organ injury. A variety of maternal, obstetric, and neonatal conditions predispose the fetus and newborn to asphyxia, which can occur before, during, or after birth From our result, we can conclude that the relationship between Perinatal asphyxia and blood sugar level is significantly lower and negative.
