description Metabolic acidemia is a known risk factor for serious adverse neonatal outcomes in both preterm and term infants. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical significance of delivery umbilical cord gas measurements with regard to serious adverse neonatal outcomes, and to determine if distinct thresholds for defining metabolic acidemia differ in their ability to predict such adverse neonatal complications. This is a retrospective cohort study of singleton live-born deliveries between January 2011 and December 2019. Stratification according to gestational age at birth (≥35 and

This study aimed to evaluate the clinical significance of delivery umbilical cord gas measurements with regard to serious adverse neonatal outcomes, and to determine if distinct thresholds for defining metabolic acidemia differ in their ability to predict such adverse neonatal complications. This is a retrospective cohort study of singleton live-born deliveries between January 2011 and December 2019. Stratification according to gestational age at birth (≥35 and &lt;35 weeks of gestation) was performed, and comparisons of maternal characteristics, obstetrical complications, intrapartum events, and adverse neonatal outcomes were made between neonates with metabolic acidemia and those without. Metabolic acidemia (based on delivery umbilical cord gas analyses) was defined using both American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development criteria. The primary outcome of interest was hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy requiring whole-body hypothermia. A total of 91,694 neonates born at ≥35 weeks of gestation met the inclusion criteria. By American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists criteria, 2659 (2.9%) infants had metabolic acidemia. Neonates with metabolic acidemia were at markedly increased risk for neonatal intensive care unit admission, seizures, need for respiratory support, sepsis, and neonatal death. Metabolic acidemia by American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists criteria was associated with an almost 100-fold increased risk of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy requiring whole-body hypothermia (relative risk, 92.69; 95% confidence interval, 64.42–133.35) in neonates born at ≥35 weeks of gestation. Diabetes mellitus, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, postterm deliveries, prolonged second stages, chorioamnionitis, operative vaginal deliveries, placental abruption and cesarean deliveries were associated with metabolic acidemia in neonates born ≥ 35 weeks of gestation. The highest relative risk was in those diagnosed with placental abruption (relative risk, 9.07; 95% confidence interval, 7.25–11.36). The neonatal cohort born &lt;35 weeks of gestation had similar findings. When comparing those infants born ≥ 35 weeks of gestation with metabolic acidemia by American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists criteria vs Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development criteria, the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development criteria identified more neonates at risk for serious adverse neonatal outcomes. In particular, 4.9% more neonates were diagnosed with metabolic acidemia, and 16 more term neonates were identified as requiring whole-body hypothermia. Mean 1-minute and 5-minute Apgar scores were similar and reassuring among neonates born at ≥35 weeks of gestation with and without metabolic acidemia as defined by both American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development criteria (8 vs 8 and 9 vs 9, respectively; P&lt;.001). Sensitivity and specificity were 86.7% and 92.2%, respectively, with the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development criteria, and 74.2% and 97.2% with the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists criteria. Infants with metabolic acidemia identified on cord gas collection at delivery are at considerably greater risk of serious adverse neonatal outcomes, including an almost 100-fold increased risk of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy requiring whole-body hypothermia. Use of the more sensitive Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development criteria for defining metabolic acidemia identifies more neonates born at ≥35 weeks of gestation at risk for adverse neonatal outcomes, including hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy requiring whole-body hypothermia.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0002-9378</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1097-6868</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1016/j.ajog.2023.03.031</identifier><identifier>PMID: 36972891</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>United States: Elsevier Inc</publisher><subject>adverse neonatal outcomes ; hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy ; metabolic acidemia ; umbilical cord gas ; whole-body hypothermia</subject><ispartof>American journal of obstetrics and gynecology, 2023-10, Vol.229 (4), p.439.e1-439.e11</ispartof><rights>2023 Elsevier Inc.</rights><rights>Copyright © 2023 Elsevier Inc.
