The work’s aim is to determine wether hyperglicemia has a significative predictive value in the mortality of TEC patients. Fort it In this longitudinal prospective analitical study, we was chose 164 TEC patients. We asumed the value of hyperglicemia as > 160 mg/dL. It was found a mortality rate of 17.1%. From which 82,1% presented hyperglicemia, while among patients who survived only 1,4% presented hyperglicemia, the mortality is higher in patients who presented hyperglicemia, certifying a highly significative asociaton between these 2 variables. The average glicemia level in died patients was 173,4 mg/dL, while the ones who survived was 95,22 mg/dL, evidencing a very significative statistical difference betwen the average of blood glucose level and the mortality of TEC patients. In Conclusion the hiperglicemia, higher than 160 mg/dL is significantly associated to mortality of TEC p...

The study present to determine the asociation between small maternal height and vaginal delivered baby just born apgar. We revised perinatal clinical histories corresponding to parities ocurred from January 1st, 2003 to December 31st, 2003 in HRDT. During the study period 2785 births take place, howerer only 1781 were included according to the inclusion criteria. 1359 born from non-small maternal height (>1,5m), while 422 born from small mothers (≤ 1,5m). In the 285 newborns delivered by vaginal way from small mothers we found 7.7% with low apgar at 1st minute and 2.5% at 5th minute. In the newborn group from non-small mother, only 1123 were delivered by vaginal way, we found low apgar in 3,9% and 0,45% at first minute and 5th minute respectively. In Conclusions the vaginal birth, there is a higly significative corelation between small maternal height and low apgar in newborns,both ...
