ABSTRACT:

Objectives: There are many hemodynamic complications present in neonates with asphyxia, there is a need of the proper management and identification of those disorders. This current research work carried out to determine the incidence of the heart abnormalities in the newborns present with asphyxia. Methodology: In this research work, we followed twenty-nine term newborns since their birth until the improvement of the pulmonary hypertension and then we compared the data with the thirty-one neonates with normal birth. We evaluated all the children for their anatomy of heart as well as hemodynamic with very careful evaluation through Echocardiography. This research work was conducted in Bolan Medical Complex Hospital Quetta in the duration from September 2017 to March 2019. Results: The main hemodynamic as well as heart anatomy complications including myocardial dysfunction, pulmonary hypertension and Patent Arterial Duct were present with a positive association with the asphyxia among neonates. Conclusion: There is a strong association of the birth asphyxia with the systolic as well as diastolic dysfunction and pulmonary hypertension which requires absolute assessment, in time identification and proper administration. KEYWORDS: Systolic, Patent Arterial Duct, Echocardiography, Hypertension, Hemodynamic, Anatomy, Myocardial, Pulmonary.
