Observational study on neonatal morbidity pattern of patients presenting to NICU of tertiary care centre, Moradabad

Journal Title: Journal Of Pediatric Critical Care - Year 2019, Vol 6, Issue 1

Abstract

Introduction: First 28 days of life is the most vulnerable period after birth as the newborns are prone for acquiring some preventable and other non-preventable diseases at this age. Developing countries like India contribute to nearly 1/3rd of neonatal mortality which are majorly seen during delivery and could be prevented.Thus, these neonatal diseases prove to be a major burden on an economy of the developing countries like ours. Poor maternal health, not so suffi cient management of pregnancy related complications and scarcity of neonatal careare few of the identifi ed risk factors for neonatal morbidities. Newborn disease pattern is a very insightful pointer of accessibility, utility and value of maternal & child health services in our society1.
