This case control study was conducted to evaluate the clinical status of infant for recruitment of babies with Perinatal asphyxia and without Asphyxia. 80 cases and 60 healthy controls were participated. Apgar score of cases at 1minutes, 5 minutes and 10 minutes of cases were 7 at 1 and 5 minutes were seen in 56 and 60 babies respectively which indicated that they are healthy new born. The mean and SD of Apgar score in cases was significantly lower (4.9±1.624) against (8.633 ±0.6040) among controls. Male babies 52(65%) were more affected than female 28 (34.9%). Foetal distress in asphyxiated newborn (86.25%) was due to obstetric complications and Maternal illness.
