This allows us to avoid the progression of the disease, also reduce exposure to these factors because it is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in neonates. It is important to have a clear perspective of this problem so that a qualitative and quantitative, descriptive, correlational and cross-sectional cohort study was conducted; Universe: I include 342 term and preterm infants, hospitalized in the Neonatal Unit service of Isidro Ayora Hospital.
