It is crucial for optimal newborn development and yet the stigma built around it has proven to be devastating for its implementation over the years. For the past few decades, numerous studies have been conducted to shed light on the countless benefits of breastfeeding and to cast off the taboo around it.

[Troponin I, creatine-phosphokinase and creatine-phosphokinase-MB in newborns with suspected neonatal asphyxia].

Background: The cardiac troponin I (cTnI), creatine phospokinase (CPK), and creatine kinase- myocardial band (CK-MB) are cardiac biomarkers used in newborns with asphyxia.

Objective: To analyze the relationship between cTnI, CPK and CPK-MB levels with clinical and biochemical diagnostic criteria for neonatal asphyxia.

Methods: Analytical cross-sectional study in neonates with at least one diagnostic criterion of asphyxia.
