Abstract

Present study was a Hospital based observational study of 100 newborns admitted in level II NICU. The study was done to assess the development of severe distress against onset, duration, oxygen requirement & outcome in terms of final diagnosis, mortality & treatment intervention. Among the 100 cases, 90% cases were of respiratory in origin. Commonest cause of respiratory distress was transient tachypnoea of newborn followed by Meconium aspiration syndrome & Respiratory distress syndrome of newborn. The onset of respiratory distress in newborn developing after 6 hours of birth & respiratory distress > 24 hours duration had severe respiratory distress. Newborn with risk factors like high maternal age, primigravida, >4 PV examinations, Meconium stained liquor and lower socioeconomic strata developed severe respiratory distress. Statistically significant correlation of severity of respiratory distress was not found with the mode of the delivery, Apgar score <7 at 1 min, gestational age of the baby, birth weight and sex of the newborn. Only neonates with RDS & MAS required ventilator care. Two of the patients of RDS required only surfactant therapy, while other two required surfactant with ventilator support. Amongst the 100 newborns with respiratory distress, mortality was in 5 newborn (5%) which includes 2 of Respiratory Distress Syndrome & 3 of Meconium Aspiration Syndrome.
