Results: preterm birth less than 37 weeks’ gestation (p 0.000), less than 2500 grams (p 0.001), cesarean (p 0.000) weight, APGAR: a statistically significant association between respiratory distress syndrome and variables found to less than 7 minutes (p 0.000) and the lower APGAR minute to 5 (p 0.000). Conclusions: There is a higher prevalence of respiratory distress with the following factors: premature birth less than 37 weeks’ gestation, less than 2500 grams, cesarean delivery, Apgar at minute 7 and lower Apgar less than five minutes
