Description
Summary:Aim. To perform a health assessment of full-term neonates born either using assisted reproductive technology (ART) or as an outcome of a spontaneous pregnancy. Materials and Methods. We examined full-term neonates born either utilizing ART (n = 79) or as an outcome spontaneous pregnancy (n = 1185). Anthropometric indicators, somatic health, and anatomy of external genital organs were considered as the health criteria. Results. Unexpectedly, we did not and any deterioration of physical development in neonates born using ART; however, they had a higher prevalence of intrauterine hypoxia, central nervous system disorders, and respiratory distress syndrome at birth compared to those who were born due to spontaneous pregnancy. Risk factors of intrauterine hypoxia included maternal age < 30 years, genital disorders, and somatic diseases. Conclusion. Full-term neonates born using ART have a higher prevalence of diseases com-pared to those who were born as an outcome of a spontaneous pregnancy.
