ABSTRACT

A descriptive serial cases study of 57 neonates who died in "Dr. Antonio Penados del Barrio", San Benito Petén Hospital, in Guatemala was carried out from January to June, 2011, with the objective of characterizing neonatal deaths occurring according to clinical and epidemiological variables. The information was obtained from the medical records of neonates and from data of the prenatal care to the mother. In the series 85,9% of mothers were identified with risks, among which hypertension, asthma, diabetes mellitus, urinary sepsis and absence of prenatal control had the higher frequencies. Mortality prevailed in the first 24 hours after birth and it was linked to factors such as prematurity, hyaline membrane disease, meconium aspiration syndrome and neonatal sepsis.
