Introducción: La adecuación del PN/EG, es importante, ya que, permite la clasificación de los RN en PEG, AEG y GEG. Los RN PEG y GEG, pertenecen a grupos de riesgo para enfermar o morir y por ello necesitan ser vigilados estrechamente. Para realizar la adecuación, se necesitan CCIU apropiadas y así detectar de manera fidedigna a estos grupos de riesgo. Objetivo: Determinar cual de las CCIU usadas el Perú es la más adecuada para realizar la adecuación del PN/EG. Material y Métodos: Se realizó un estudio descriptivo retrospectivo en el cual a todos los RNV, nacidos en el HNGAI en el año 2001, se les sometió a una adecuación del PN/EG de acuerdo a las CCIU de Lubchenco, INPROMI y CLAP. Se comparó la incidencia de RN PEG, GEG y de patología para cada grupo según la CCIU usada. Se consideró más adecuada aquella curva que detectó mayor número de RN con patología. Resultado...

Determina la peroxidación generada por luz ambiental, de las emulsiones lipídicas parenterales administradas a recién nacidos en la unidad de cuidado intensivo neonatal del INMP. Es un estudio cuasi-experimental, prospectivo, longitudinal. Utiliza una muestra de 60 emulsiones lipídicas al 20% las cuales estuvieron dividas en 2 grupos. Grupo 1: Emulsiones lipídicas parenterales al 20%, expuestas a luz ambiental por un periodo de 24 horas, bajo condiciones de temperatura y humedad ambiental, que fueron administradas a recién nacidos en bolsas y líneas de infusión transparentes. Grupo 2: Emulsiones lipídicas parenterales al 20%, expuestas a luz ambiental por un periodo de 24 horas, bajo condiciones de temperatura y humedad ambiental, que fueron administradas a recién nacidos en bolsas protegidas y líneas de infusión fotosensibles. La peroxidación lipídica se determinó la a tr...

Objective. Determine the ambient light generated by peroxidation of parenteral lipid emulsions administered to newborns in the neonatal intensive care unit of INMP in 2009. Materials and methods. A quasi-experimental, prospective, longitudinal. We studied 60 to 20% fat emulsions which were divided into 2 groups: Group 1: Parenteral lipid emulsions 20%, exposed to ambient light for a period of 24 hours under conditions of controlled temperature and humidity, which were administered to newborn born infusion bags and transparent lines and group 2: parenteral lipid emulsions 20%, exposed to ambient light for a period of 24 hours under conditions of controlled temperature and humidity, which were fed to infants in bags and protected lines photosensitive infusion. Lipid peroxidation was determined by the dosage of malondialdeico (DMA) through uptake by thiobarbituric acid (TBA) and later readi...

Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is the neurological syndrome caused by perinatal asphyxia. Therapeutic hypothermia (TH) has been shown to reduce HIE-associated morbidity and mortality. A descriptive and retrospective study with 30 newborns with moderate and severe HIE who underwent TH in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of Instituto Materno Perinatal, from September 2017 until November 2020. Nine patients were severely affected (30%). The average tome for being admitted in the ICU was at 3.4 hours of life. No important adverse effects attributable to TH were observed. All severely affected patients experienced epileptic crises, and abnormal cerebral ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging studies on admission. Mortality was 20.0%, but it was significantly lower in the group with moderate HIE. Clinical, electrographic, and radiological characteristics of neonates with HIE who un...
