Analysis on the Health of Newborns in Three Hospitals, 2008-2024

Sponsor: HOSPITAL GINECO OBSTETRICO ISIDRO AYORA

Summary

The objective of this observational study is to analyze the factors associated with neonatal morbidity and mortality in three hospitals in Quito, Ecuador, from January 2022 to December 2023. The primary question to be addressed is: What perinatal factors are associated with neonatal morbidity and mortality in neonates admitted to HGOIA, HGDC, and HGONA hospitals? The participants will be neonates whose complete medical records are registered in the Perinatal Information System (SIP) and the Maternal-Perinatal Clinical Record (HCMP) databases during the study period. Data will be retrospectively collected from the mentioned databases, evaluating variables such as birth weight, gestational age, congenital anomalies, neonatal complications, and maternal factors such as age and medical conditions. The analysis will include prevalence calculations, variable associations through logistic regression, and the development of neonatal growth curves. Statistical software such as R will be used for data analysis, and the results will be compared to national and international standards.
