Abstract

AIMS : To study risk factor and predictor risk factor for neonatal pneumonia and  outcome of treatment 

METHODS : Analytic study retrospective cohort study was conducted. The study population were 523 participants which neonatal pneumonia 259 participants and non neonatal pneumonia 264 participants. The medical and delivery records between 2015 and 2060 were reviewed. We used logistic regression procedures to estimate the adjusted odds ratio (AOR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) of potential risk factors for neonatal pneumonia

RESULTS : The risk factors such as maternal age less than 20 years OR 6.4, 95% CI, 3.7 to 10.8, birth before admit OR 5.1, 95% CI, 1.1 to 23.0, prolong second stage of labour OR 3.4, 95% CI, 1.9 to 6.1, birth asphyxia OR 3.1, 95% CI, 1.2 to 7.6, resuscitation at birth OR 3.1, 95% CI, 1.0 to 9.4, Foul smelling liquor OR 3.1, 95% CI, 1.0 to 9.4, Factor Predictor were maternal age less than 20 years AOR, 17.50; 95% CI, 0.33 to 0.42, antenatal care less than 5 time AOR, 17.35; 95% CI, 0.33 to 0.44, agricultural occupation AOR, 17.01; 95% CI, 0.32 to 0.41, worker occupation AOR, 14.02; 95% CI, 0.24 to 0.32, prolong rupture of membrane AOR, 10.16; 95% CI, 0.16 to 0.24, prolong second stage AOR, 9.57; 95% CI, 0.15 to 0.22, fever at birth AOR, 8.61; 95% CI, 0.13 to 0.29 and outcome of treatment were improve 72.2%, referral 26.6% readmit in 28 day 1.2%

CONCLUSION : Risk factors and predictors of neonatal pneumonia include: Maternal age less than 20 years, prenatal care less than 5 times, poor quality of life, agricultural occupation, prolong rupture of membrane more than 18 hours and good outcome of treatment.
