Perinatal asphyxia, which results in hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), causes a number of clinical and biochemical changes that can adversely affect the outcome. Therefore, we set out to study the parameters of the acid-base state of the blood in full-term newborns with HIE who suffered perinatal asphyxia. For this purpose, we studied 120 full-term newborns, including 90 patients with HIE of varying severity who had suffered perinatal asphyxia. The results of the study showed a decrease in the partial pressure of pCO2 and pO2 and the level of blood oxygen saturation (sO2), hypocalcemia, hypoglycemia and a decrease in the concentration of bicarbonate HCO3.
