Abstract

Context: Preterm and low-birth weight are of the most common causes of Mortality and criticaldisabilities in newborns. Although advances in neonatal care improved survival and quality oflife in the developed countries, Mortality and Morbidity due to prematurity are still high in thedeveloping and underdeveloped countries such countries in Eastern Mediterranean region (EMR). Objective: The study aimed at evaluating Mortality and Morbidity among Very Low Birth Weight(VLBW) and Very Preterm (VP) neonates in EMR. Data Sources: A systematic search was conducted in CINAHL, Cochrane Library, Current Contents, Database of Abstracts of Reviews of Effects (DARE), Google Scholar, PubMed, PsycINFO, ThomsonReuters, Scientific Information Database (SID), and Medical Library (MedLib) as well as regionalWHO database to detect relevant studies published from 1996 to 2016. Study Selection: English Language Literature From EMR countries, which reporting outcomes ofVLBW and VP were considered. Finally, 32 full text articles were included. Data Extraction: Data on VLBW and VP outcomes including Mortality, and short-and long-termmorbidities were extracted. Results: Meta-analysis results of prevalence of Mortality among VLBW newborns was obtainedas 32. 0%, which was different from Asian and African countries (23% vs. 55%). Pooled odds ratioof Mortality among VLBW newborns was estimated as 2. 41. The most prevalent comorbidity inVLBW and VP newborns were allocated to septicemia and Neurodevelopmental Delay (NDD), andthe rarest belonged to Periventricular Leukomalacia (PVL) and Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC). Themain limitation of the current study was lack of relevant studies and adequate sample size. Conclusions: It seems that indicators in EMR should be evaluated independently in Asianand African countries. Septicemia, as relatively curable cause of Morbidity, is the mostprevalent comorbidity among VLBW infants.
