To evaluate the impact of delayed cord clamping (DCC) on need for inotropic support and mean arterial blood pressure (MABP).
This is a single-center, prospective case-control study of premature infants, born <32 weeks gestation, who underwent DCC in comparison to a matched control group who underwent immediate cord clamping (ICC). The primary outcomes were the differences in MABP and inotropic medication used over the first week of life. Secondary outcomes included the admission hemoglobin, need for blood transfusion, and rates of intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH). Infants were matched on EGA, birth weight, sex, antenatal corticosteroid and magnesium exposure, and presence of chorioamnionitis.
Hundred and fifty-eight infants (DCC n = 79, ICC n = 79) were included. Demographic factors were similar between groups. DCC infants had a higher admission hemoglobin (p < .01), reduced incidence of high-grade IVH (p = .03), fewer median transfusions (p = .03), and were discharged at an earlier post-menstrual age (p = .04). When controlling for other factors, DCC was not associated with a reduction in inotrope use (p = .22) but was associated with a reduction in high-grade IVH (p = .01). There was no difference in MABP between the groups.
DCC is not associated with a reduction in the use of inotropes or a difference in MABP.
评估延迟脐带结扎(DCC)对使用血管活性药物支持的需求及平均动脉血压(MABP)的影响。
这是一项针对孕周小于32周的早产儿的单中心前瞻性病例对照研究,将接受DCC的婴儿与接受即刻脐带结扎(ICC)的匹配对照组进行比较。主要结局是出生后第一周内MABP和使用血管活性药物的差异。次要结局包括入院时血红蛋白水平、输血需求及脑室内出血(IVH)发生率。根据估计孕周(EGA)、出生体重、性别、产前使用糖皮质激素和镁的情况以及绒毛膜羊膜炎的存在对婴儿进行匹配。
共纳入158例婴儿(DCC组n = 79,ICC组n = 79)。两组间人口统计学因素相似。DCC组婴儿入院时血红蛋白水平较高(p < 0.01),重度IVH发生率较低(p = 0.03),输血中位数较少(p = 0.03),且在月经龄较小的时候出院(p = 0.04)。在控制其他因素后,DCC与血管活性药物使用减少无关(p = 0.22),但与重度IVH减少有关(p = 0.01)。两组间MABP无差异。
DCC与血管活性药物使用减少或MABP差异无关。
