This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

Background: To investigate the impact of blood acid-base disorders and elevated lactate during birth on the final outcome of the newborn.Subjects and methods: The study include 110 children born with acid-base imbalance and increased level of lactates at the admission. We also took into account the assessment of the vitality of newborns at birth, need for resuscitation procedures and mechanical ventilation, ultrasound scanning of the brain, treatment methods and final outcome.Results:Researchhasshownthat80%ofthenewbornshadthedisorderofacid-basestatusofbloodonadmissionand 76.3%hadhighlactates.Onadmission,53.60%ofthenewbornshadclinicalfeaturesofhypoxicischemicencephalopathy. Ultrasound scanning images of brain have been pathologically changed in 92.70% and mechanical ventilation was necessary at 90.90% of the newborns.Conclusion:Aftercompletedtreatment,allexamineeshavesurvived.Theseindicatorsofhypoxicischemicinjuryatour patients had no significant impact on the treatment outcome.
