“…The third factor is the 22.7% fetal factor, namely fetal distress, IUGR, MAS, and malpresentation. To assess the condition of neonatal asphyxia, an evaluation can be carried out every 1.5, and 10 minutes using the APGAR score [4]. According to a study by Acharya (2020), the incidence of birth asphyxia was more commonly found in vaginal deliveries than in cesarean sections.…”

Background: Birth asphyxia is a condition of failure to start breathing in neonates or unable to maintain spontaneous breathing at birth. Neonatal asphyxia is a contributor to 30-35% of neonatal deaths. The incidence of birth asphyxia in infants in developing countries is 10 times greater than in developed countries, especially if maternal and neonatal health services are inadequate. The incidence of asphyxia is inseparable from the accompanying risk factors. Therefore, this study aims to determine the risk factors for the incidence of asphyxia in newborns based on fetal and maternal factors. Method: This research is a literature review where researchers will review articles that are relevant to predetermined criteria. Articles were screened based on titles, abstracts, keywords, inclusion criteria, and the contents of the entire text, and the seven most relevant articles were obtained for review. Result: The results of a literature search showed that the most risk factors for the incidence of birth asphyxia were: Fetal factors consisting of low birth weight, prematurity, meconium amniotic fluid, malpresentation, and umbilical cord entanglement. Then on maternal factors, the most risk factors were prolonged labor, preeclampsia, primigravida mothers, and post-term pregnancies. Conclussion : Based on the results of a search of seven literature, researchers have taken the most mentioned factors and grouped these factors into 2 factors, namely fetal factors and maternal factors.

Introduction. Intrauterine hypoxia and asphyxia during childbirth are the leading causes of infant mortality in the structure of certain conditions arising in the perinatal period.Purpose. To study the involvement of negative events for the fetus in the ante- and intranatal periods in the occurrence of perinatal asphyxia in newborns and identify the main modifiable risk factors that will allow formulating preventive strategies in the development of child hypoxia.Materials and methods. A retrospective assessment of the course of the ante- and intranatal period was carried out according to 50 case histories. Nominal data are presented with indication of absolute and relative values. Sets of quantitative indicators are described by the values of the median (Me) and the lower and upper quartiles (Q1–Q3). The χ2 test was used to compare unrelated samples. Differences were considered statistically significant at p < 0.05. Statistical data processing was carried out using the Microsoft Office 2021 software package.Results: In the group of children with moderate and severe asphyxia at birth, the median gestational age was 36 and 33 weeks. The main ante- and intranatal risk factors for asphyxia of newborns were established in the following percentage: fetoplacental insufficiency – 32%; premature rupture of membranes and medical abortions in history, 30% each; first pregnancy, anemia, obesity, hypertension, smoking, maternal age > 35 years, 18% each; isthmic-cervical insufficiency – 16%; history of antenatal death, threatened miscarriage, vaginitis, 14% each; acute respiratory infections during pregnancy, assisted reproductive technologies (IVF), uterine fibroids – 12% each; oligohydramnios – 8%; polyhydramnios – 6%.Conclusion. The structure of factors that can contribute to the development of asphyxia in newborns is diverse. Understanding the involvement of modifiable risk factors determines the need to build a strategy and tactics to reduce their impact on the development of the pathology under consideration.
