ABSTRACT
Introduction: Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy is the most severe consequence of
perinatal asphyxia. The rate of change in the serum levels of some intracellular enzymes
among the first hours of extrauterine life may serve as indication of heighten risk for
the development of Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy.
Objective: To analyze the possible association between the rates of change in serum
lactate dehydrogenase values in the first 12 hours of extrauterine life and the development
of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy.
Methods: Diagnostic test study. Lactate dehydrogenase determinations were performed
at 0, 6 and 12 hours of extrauterine life in neonates who presented clinical diagnosis of
perinatal asphyxia (n = 10) and in patients with risk factors that did not meet asphyxia
criteria (n = 10).
Results: Setting a cut-off point for serum lactate dehydrogenase at 775 IU/L, a sensitivity
of 90% and specificity of 60% for the development of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy
was obtained. An increase for serum values of lactate dehydrogenase equal to
or greater than 0.33%/hour between 0 and 12 hours showed sensitivity of 90% and
specificity 100% with respect to the development of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy.
Conclusion: Variation in serum lactate dehydrogenase levels in the first 12 hours of
life is associated with the development of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy.
