Background: Perinatal asphyxia is a common cause of mortality and of morbidity including motor and neurodevelopmental abnormalities. The aim of this study was to evaluate the post-hospital outcome of neonates treated for perinatal asphyxia at the Douala Gynaeco-Obstetric and Pediatric Hospital (DGOPH) in Cameroon. Patients and Methods: We conducted a hospital-based cross-sectional study with both a retrospective and prospective data collection, conducted over a period of 3 months and involving neonates above 34 weeks of gestational age who were managed for perinatal asphyxia at DGOPH from August 2015 to February 2020. Socio-demographic, perinatal, motor, nutritional and neuro-developmental out-of-hospital data were recorded. The assessment of the child's psychomotor development was evaluated through gross motor skills, fine motor skills, language and social contact. We calculated the development quotient (DQ) by dividing the developmental age (DA) by the actual age (RA) of the patient. The data were entered and analyzed using excel and Stata version 15 software. Results: Among the 58 newborns included in our study, males were the most represented (59%). The mean age was 36.5 ± 14.16 months (Extremes: 12 months and 66 months).

“…This is not to be confused with intra-uterine growth retardation which is defined as a birth weight below the 10 th percentile of the reference curves [3]. This weight limit has been used for nearly a century [4] and categorizes neonates into low birth weight where the low birth is between 1500 g and <2500 g; very low birth weight with birth weight between 1000 g and <1500 g and extremely low birth weight defined by a birth weight <1000 g [5]. Birth weight is an easily accessible measure, particularly in a low-resource milieu, it is a key indicator of newborn health and a major factor in neonatal morbidity and mortality [2] [6].…”

Introduction: Low birth weight is a key indicator of newborn health. The objective of this study was to contribute to the reduction of low birth weight-related morbidity and mortality. Patients and Methods: cohort study conducted from January 2019 to July 2020 at the "Mère-Enfant" University Hospital Centre (UHC) of Libreville. All newborns with a birth weight < 2500 g were included. The clinical data of patients were studied. They were followed over a period of 12 months and assessed psychomotorly by the Brunet-Lézine scale. Results: 1260/9035 births of low birth weight (14.0%) were observed, and 300 among them were included. The mortality rate was 27.0% (81) and 219 were followed for 12 months. The sex ratio was 0.8, the average birth weight was 2008.6 ± 215.2 g. The average gestational age was 34 ± 12 weeks with 75.3% prematurity. An infant disease was observed in 61.6% of cases and respiratory pathologies were more observed except at 3 months of age where the proportion of digestive pathologies was 20.5%. At the time of the last consultation at 12 months of life, 76.2% of infants had no pathology. The quotients of postural development, language and coordination were normal (between 110 -70) respectively in 75.4%, 99.1% and 68% of cases at the age of 12 months. The psychomotor development quotient was correlated with the birth weight in the language area r = 0.15 (p = 0.024), posture r = 0.15 (p = 0.015) and coordination r = 0.15 (p = 0.026) respectively. Conclusion: Low birth weight is a public health problem at UHCME-JEF. Despite the fact that psychomotor development can be said to be satisfactory, many efforts remain to be made to reduce low birth weight levels and improve survival.

“…more than 4 weeks before the term). Three subgroups can be distinguished [1]: moderately preterm birth (33 to 36 +6days weeks); very preterm birth (28 to 32 +6days weeks); extremely preterm birth (<28 weeks). Prematurity affects around 15 million children a year (11% of live births), 60,000 of them in France, and its incidence has been increasing since the 1990s according to the WHO.…”

“…In the case of very preterm births (22 to 32 weeks +6days ), the MOSAIC cohort [4] and EuroPeristat (European perinatal Heath report statistics) [2] reported an overall rate of 13.2/1000 births, representing 14.3% of total premature births. Less than 5% of preterm infants have a gestational age below 28 weeks (extremely preterm birth) [1]. The incidence of prematurity in France has been constantly increasing.…”
