The highest mortality that befalls the human
race in one day occurs on the day of birth.,.…,
……
It is said that the most important period of
the life of a human being is the time spent in
utero,The most trying ordeal a human being
sustains is the ordeal of birth.

Definition of Perinatal Asphyxia
a condition in the neonate where there is the
following combination:
? An event or condition during the perinatal period that is
likely to severely reduce oxygen delivery and lead to acidosis;
AND
? A failure of function of at least two organs consistent with
the effects of acute asphyxia.
Hypoxemia,Hypercapnia,Mixed acidosis,Organic failure
Risk Factors-Maternal
? Systemic disease,diabetes,heart or renal
diseases,anemia,infectious diseases
? Obstetric Conditions,hypertensive disease of
pregnancy or pre-eclampsia,placental abruption
? Substance abuse,drug addiction,smoking
? Maternal age,>35,or <16,multiple pregnancy
Risk Factors-Fetal
? Premature,SGA,macrosomia
? Congenital malformation,nose and laryngo-
pharynx malformation,lung hypoplasia,
heart disease
? Amniotic fluid or meconium aspiration
? Intrauterine infection,Torch syndrome
Risk Factors-Intrapartum
? Umbilical cord,obstruction
? Obstetric procedures,forceps delivery,
breech extraction,vacuum extraction
? Medication,analgesic and oxytocic
medicine
Pathophysiology of Asphysia
? Respiratory Alteration:
primary hyperpnea,primary apnea,secondary apnea
? Hypoxic-ischemic Changes of Multi-organic system:
“diving reflex”,inter-organ shunting,organ failure
? Biochemical and metabolic Consequences:
acidosis,hyper- or hypoglycemia,hypocalcemia,
hyperbilirubinemia,hyperkalemia,hyponatremia
Clinical Manifestation of Asphysia
? Apgar Scoring System

The Significance of Apgar Score
?Apgar 8~10,normal;
4~7,mild asphyxia;
0~3,severe asphyxia
?Assigned at 1,5,and 10 min,until score of 7 or more
?1’ score indicate the severity and guide for resuscitation
?5’ score and later is more predictive of prognosis
?Premature infants intend to have lower scores
Clinical Manifestation of Asphyxia
? Multiorgan System Dysfunction
? Renal compromise,oliguria and elevated creatinine
? Hypoxic cardiomyopathy (ECHO or ECG abnormality)
? Hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE)
? Pulmonary complications,respiratory distress (RDS),
persistent pulmonary hypertension (PPHN)
? Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC)
? Hepatic failure,hyperbilirubinemia
? Necrotising enterocolitis (NEC),stress ulcer
? Fluid overload,hyperkalemia,hypoglycemia,and acidosis
American Heart Association-American Academy of Pediatrics
Approach to Resuscitation
?Infant with an Apgar Score of 7 or more
? generally do not require resuscitation
? a brief period of oxygen blown over the face
? oxygen increases pulmonary blood flow
? avoid excessive suctioning of clear fluid
?Infant with an Apgar Score of 4 to 6
? stimulation
? administration of oxygen by face mask,or bag
? empty the stomach when using bag or mask ventilation
American Heart Association-American Academy of Pediatrics
Approach to Resuscitation
?Infant with an Apgar Score of 1 to 3
? usually require intubation and expansion of the lung
? bag and mask ventilation usually is adequate to sustain
? further steps depend on the response to ventilation
?Infant with an Apgar Score of 0
? no live born infant should be assigned a score of 0
? resuscitation should proceed as for a score of 1
? cardiac compression
