Introduction: the brain impairment by asphyxia in fetus and newborn is the consequence of hypoxic and ischemic phenomena that only affect certain vulnerable areas of the brain depending on the degree of the maturity of the brain at the moment of the noxa. Objective: to determine the neurological evaluation in patients with history of birth asphyxia. Method: a descriptive study in a series of neonates with history of birth asphyxia from January 2011 to December 2012 that were assessed at one year of age. Results: the neurological alterations prevailed in patients for cesarean delivery (45 %); 62.5 % of patients with PH below seven in the first hour of life were those of more psychomotor disorders, 90 % of patients with the extended time of ventilation as well as the beginning of the first twelve living hour convulsions. Conclusions: to a larger time of ventilation and on early apparition of convulsions a worse neurological prognosis
