    Abstract:
    In this study it was aimed to investigate the renal function disturbances at an early stage of term newborn babies with perinatal asphyxia. 18 term newborn babies with the diagnosis of perinatal asphyxia were followed in the first 3 days of their lives, and various laboratory tests were applied to evaluate the renal functions. The results were compared with 10 healthy newborn who were chosen as a control group. The renal functions glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and fractional sodium excretion (FENa) were found significantly impaired up to 60% in the asphyctic babies especially those whose clinical presentation was expected to be severe.
