In severe asphyxia, lipid peroxidation occurs. Neonatal lipid concentration may indicate the severity of asphyxia and be a reason for needing cooling therapy. Asphyxia in Neonates describes the results of research into the impact oxygen deficits in neonates. The physiological consequences of asphyxiated newborn infants include changes in the pH of plasma and changes in lipid concentrations. These changes can result in apoptosis, loss of cell membrane integrity, and damage to the brain.

Features

Reviews pathophysiology of asphyxia Describes the influence of asphyxia on lipids concentrations Summarizes the weight distribution of neonates with asphyxia based on lipid concentration Illustrates the use of lipids as an indicator of prognosis following asphyxia Provides guidance for lipids parameters in cooling therapy

Dr. Jovandaric has been a research associate since 2020 as part of the medical faculty of University of Belgrade, Serbia. Author and co-author of 106 scientific papers presented at national and international conferences and journals, she's head of the Department of Sick Newborns at the Clinic for Gynecology and Obstetrics, Department of Neonatology, University Clinical Center of Serbia, Belgrade. Dr. Jovandaric has edited and/or contributed to the following books: Childbirth: Placenta Abruption and Delivery Method; Selected Topics in Myasthenia Gravis: Maternal and Neonatal Outcome of Pregnancies with Autoimmune Myasthenia Gravis; Apoliproteins, Triglicerides and Cholesterol: Signicance of Lipid and Lipoprotein in Organism; and Veganism: A Fashion Trend or Food as a Medicine – Veganism: A New Approach to Health. Stefan Dugalic, Ass, MD PhD, is a gynecology and obstetrics specialist, and master manager in the medical/health care system.
