Objetivo: Identificar los factores de riesgo neonatales asociados a estancia hospitalaria Prolongada en el Hospital Santa Rosa, periodo 2015 -2019. Método: Se realizó un estudio observacional, transversal, retrospectivo, de casos y controles en neonatos hospitalizados de la UCI neonatal; considerando sus diagnósticos perinatales y posnatales como factores a evaluar (variable independiente) así como la estancia hospitalaria (variable dependiente). Según muestra calculada por Epidat 4.2, se dividieron dos grupos: casos (estancia prolongada) y controles (estancia no prolongada). Los datos recolectados fueron procesados en el programa SPSS v.23 para el respectivo análisis descriptivo e inferencial. Resultados: Se incluyeron 361 neonatos (91 casos y 270 controles), encontrándose significancia en factores perinatales (p<0.05): Peso al nacer (1000g a <1500g, ORa 8.2: IC3.1 – 21.2) y ed...

Objective: Identify neonatal pathologies or conditions that influence the prolongation of hospital stay in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). Materials and methods: An observational, retrospective, case-control study was carried out; in neonates hospitalized in the NICU, during the period 2015-2019, considering their perinatal and postnatal diagnoses as factors to be evaluated, as well as hospital stay. Two groups were divided: cases (prolonged stay) and controls (non-prolonged stay). The collected data were processed in the SPSS v.23 program, obtaining the OR and the Binary Logistic Regression. Results: 361 neonates (91 cases and 270 controls) were included, finding significance in perinatal factors (p<0.05): Birth weight (1000g to <1500g, ORa 8.2: CI3.1 - 21.2) and gestational age (28 to 31 weeks , ORa 18.6: CI4.8-71.4; 32-33 weeks, ORa 8.1: CI3.5 – 18.4); and postnatal fac...
