To evaluate the association between early (within 10 d) pRBC transfusion and the development of severe ROP.
This was a single-center retrospective study. Inclusion criteria were preterm infants born ≤32 weeks gestation or weighing ≤1500 g. Severe ROP was defined as infants requiring retinal laser ablation or bevacizumab injection. Logistic regression was used to identify the association between transfusions and severe ROP.
A total of 1635 infants were included in the final analysis. The severe ROP incidence was 8% (126/1635). Ninety-one percent (115/126) of infants who developed severe ROP received a pRBC transfusion in the first 10 d. Early transfusion was associated with severe ROP; adjusted odds ratio of 3.8 (95% CI: 1.8-8.1).
pRBC transfusions in the first 10 days of life are associated with an almost four-fold increased risk of severe ROP, independent of gestational age at birth or bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) status.
评估出生后 10 天内(早期)输血与严重 ROP 发生之间的相关性。
这是一项单中心回顾性研究。纳入标准为胎龄≤32 周或出生体重≤1500g 的早产儿。严重 ROP 定义为需要视网膜激光光凝或贝伐单抗注射的婴儿。采用 logistic 回归分析输血与严重 ROP 之间的相关性。
共有 1635 例婴儿纳入最终分析。严重 ROP 的发生率为 8%(126/1635)。在发生严重 ROP 的 126 例婴儿中,91%(115/126)在出生后 10 天内接受了 pRBC 输血。早期输血与严重 ROP 相关;校正后的比值比为 3.8(95%CI:1.8-8.1)。
出生后 10 天内输血与严重 ROP 的发生风险增加近四倍有关,与胎龄或支气管肺发育不良(BPD)状态无关。
