[Neurologic alert signals in one-year-old infants: relation to signs of intrapartum hypoxia].
As a method to evaluate the neurologic evolution and to establish if there exists any differences in the relation with the signs of intrapartum hypoxia, we have explored the neurologic "alert signs" at a certain age (12 months of life) in 80 full-term newborn infants with normal weight and without criteria of neurologic risk. We did not find statistically significant differences in the presence of alert signs in regards to sex, gestational risk, type of amniotic fluid, way of delivery, one-minute and five-minute Apgar scores or acid-base state in the umbilical artery at birth. We did find a significant increase in the number of alert signs in patients with cardiotocographic patterns that were suspicious or not tranquil in relation to those whose cardiotocographic patterns were tranquil.
