Set data was obtained from medical records at the perinatal and then the Chi-Square Test is used to test of independence between two variables. Results: Chi-Square test is used for testing the differences of the incidence of neonatal asphyxia between preterm infants and term infants who have low birth weight. It generates P value = 0.292 which is over than 0.005. There are 27 asphyxia in preterm infants or equal to (11.6%) while there are only 23 term infants or equal to (9.6%).
