We conducted a 12-year retrospective analysis of perinatal characteristics at Al-Sabeen Hospital, Sana'a. There were 62168 births, 2936 stillbirths and 5434 perinatal deaths. There were 14 576 (24.6%) preterm low-birth-weight (LBW) babies. Early neonatal death (ENND) rate was 42.2/1000 live births. Of the 10 546 neonates admitted to the special baby care unit (SBCU), 40.1% were preterm LBW and 2147 (20.4%) died (80.6% were preterm LBW). The last 4 years showed a 17.2% increase in stillbirths and a 40.5% reduction in ENND compared with the first 4 years. In the SBCU, reduction in ENND was > 70%. Respiratory distress accounted for 63.8% of deaths in the SBCU and birth asphyxia 15.0%. Our results reflect the poor antenatal and delivery care services in Yemen.
我们对萨那市萨比恩医院的围产期特征进行了为期12年的回顾性分析。共有62168例分娩,2936例死产和5434例围产期死亡。有14576例(24.6%)早产低体重儿。早期新生儿死亡率为42.2/1000活产儿。在入住特殊婴儿护理病房(SBCU)的10546例新生儿中,40.1%为早产低体重儿,2147例(20.4%)死亡(其中80.6%为早产低体重儿)。与前4年相比,最近4年死产增加了17.2%,早期新生儿死亡减少了40.5%。在SBCU,早期新生儿死亡减少超过70%。呼吸窘迫占SBCU死亡病例的63.8%,出生窒息占15.0%。我们的结果反映了也门产前和分娩护理服务的匮乏。
