It generates high costs, both social and economic, and presents modifiable risk factors.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Objective:<\/jats:bold> To determine the biological and psychosocial factors and risk behaviors associated with the development of perinatal asphyxia (Sarnat II-III) in newborns from low socioeconomic status in a tier III university hospital in the city of Cali, Colombia.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Materials and Methods:<\/jats:bold> With a case and control design, 216 patients were studied (54 cases\/162 controls) (1 case\/3 matched controls). The cases were defined as newborns with modified or severe perinatal asphyxia (Sarnat II-III) between 2012 and 2014, with gestational age \u2265 36 weeks, with neurological signs not attributable to other causes, multiorgan compromise, advanced reanimation, and presence of a sentinel event. For the analysis, conditional logistic regression models were developed to evaluate association (OR), considering that the cases and controls had been paired by the birth and gestational age variables.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results:<\/jats:bold> The final model showed that, from the group of biological variables, meconium amniotic fluid was identified as a risk factor (OR 15.28, 95%CI 2.78\u201383.94). Induction of labor lowered the risk of perinatal asphyxia by 97% (OR 0.03, 95%CI 0.01\u20130.21), and monitoring of fetal heart rate was associated with lower odds by 99% (OR 0.01, 95%CI 0.00\u20130.31) of developing perinatal asphyxia in the newborn. Regarding social variables, the lack of social support was identified as a risk factor for the development of perinatal asphyxia (OR 6.44, 95%CI 1.16\u201335.66); in contrast, secondary education lowered the odds of developing perinatal asphyxia by 85% when compared with pregnant women who only had primary school education (OR 0.15, 95%CI 0.03\u20130.77).<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusion:<\/jats:bold> Assessment of biological and psychosocial factors and social support is important in pregnant women to determine the risk of developing perinatal asphyxia in a low-income population.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3389\/fpubh.2021.535737","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,21]],"date-time":"2021-06-21T07:04:20Z","timestamp":1624259060000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Biological and Psychosocial Factors, Risk Behaviors, and Perinatal Asphyxia in a University Hospital: Matched Case\u2013Control Study, Cali, Colombia (2012\u20132014)"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"9","author":[{"given":"Javier","family":"Torres-Mu\u00f1oz","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Javier Enrique","family":"Fonseca-Perez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Katherine","family":"Laurent","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1965","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"894","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1471-0528.2003.02446.x","article-title":"The burden of disease from neonatal mortality: a review of South Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa","volume":"110","author":"Hyder","year":"2003","journal-title":"Int J Obstet Gynaecol."},{"key":"B2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"484","DOI":"10.1038\/sj.jp.7210743","article-title":"Research priorities for the reduction of perinatal and neonatal morbidity and mortality in developing country communities","volume":"22","author":"Moss","year":"2002","journal-title":"J Perinatol."},{"key":"B3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"e99","DOI":"10.1542\/neo.3-6-e99","article-title":"The etiology and pharmacology approach to hypoxic- ischemic encephalopathy in the newborn","volume":"3","author":"Peter","year":"2002","journal-title":"Neo Rev."},{"key":"B4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"891","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(05)71048-5","article-title":"Four-million neonatal deaths: when? where? why","volume":"365","author":"Lawn","year":"2005","journal-title":"Lancet."},{"key":"B5","unstructured":"Basic Newborn Resuscitation; A Practical Guide2007"},{"key":"B6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"e13","DOI":"10.1542\/neo.14-1-e13","article-title":"Intrapartum asphyxia, neonatal encephalopathy.
