[Risk factors on hyperglycemia in newborn infants].
OBJECTIVE
To investigate high risk factors of neonatal hyperglycemia.


METHODS
According to the gestational age, postnatal age, weight, hypoxia, infection, 336 hospitalized newborns receiving continuous intravenous infusion of glucose controlled by pump were divided into the study and control groups respectively, the incidences of hyperglycemia between two groups were analysed statistically.


RESULTS
The results showed that the high risk factors of neonatal hyperglycemia were gestational age ( < 37 week), postnatal age ( < 72h), weight ( < 2 500g), hypoxia and (or) infection.


CONCLUSIONS
In neonates with one or more high risk factors of hyperglycemia, strict control of infusion speed; treatment of original diseases and frequent monitoring of blood glucose should be noted.
