Abstract

Objective: To describe the causes and treatment outcomes of neonatal respiratory distress at the Thai Binh Pediatric Hospital. Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted on 217 neonates diagnosed with respiratory distress at the Thai Binh Pediatric Hospital from January 2024 to July 2024. Results: The majority of affected neonates were male (62.2%), with a mean gestational age of 37.65 ± 2.29 weeks and a mean birth weight of 2997 ± 595 grams. Among the cases, 71.9% had mild respiratory distress, 19.8% had moderate distress, and 8.3% had severe distress. Most patients (92.6%) recovered and were discharged, with an average treatment duration of 13.7 days. Pulmonary causes, primarily pneumonia, were the most common etiology (74.2%), while patent ductus arteriosus (6.9%) and neonatal infection (23.5%) were the leading causes in other categories. Factors associated with poorer treatment outcomes included preterm birth, low birth weight, cesarean delivery, and severe respiratory distress at admission. Conclusion: Neonatal respiratory distress is primarily caused by pneumonia, with most patients achieving favorable outcomes. However, preterm birth, low birth weight, cesarean delivery, and severe distress are risk factors for worse prognosis. Early identification and timely intervention are crucial for improving treatment outcomes.
