    Area of Science:

    • Neonatology
    • Perinatal Medicine
    • Pediatric Nursing

    Background:

    • Neonatal asphyxia is a significant cause of newborn morbidity.
    • It impacts multiple organ systems, including the brain, heart, lungs, kidneys, liver, and gastrointestinal tract.
    • The complexity of multiorgan involvement presents unique challenges in neonatal nursing care.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To elucidate the neonatal consequences of asphyxia across various organ systems.
    • To highlight the critical role of nursing in managing asphyxiated infants.
    • To provide a foundation for understanding pathophysiology and nursing implications.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of existing literature on neonatal asphyxia.
    • Analysis of the pathophysiology of multiorgan dysfunction.
