Summary

Background Neonatal hypoglycemia is one of the most common metabolic disorders in neonatology. Maintaining stable levels of glucose in the transition from fetal life to life after birth is very important. Yet, except for the recognizing of at-risk populations, there are not many individual measures which can help and predict which newborns (from at-risk populations) will develop hypoglycemia and which will not.

OBJECTIVE our objective is to try to characterize by the mother's glucose levels at birth and by umbilical cord glucose levels who would be at increased risk of hypoglycemia in the hours after birth in the population that is at increased risk of this complication in advance.
