To evaluate the clinical profile and predictors of mortality in neonates with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH).
Demographic and clinical parameters of neonates with congenital diaphragmatic heria (n=37) between January 2014 and October, 2017 were reviewed, and compared among those who survived or expired in hospital.
Median (range) gestation and birthweight were 38 (37-39) weeks and 2496 (2044-2889) g, respectively. Persistent pulmonary hypertension (PPHN) was documented in 19 (51%) neonates and 10 (27%) had associated malformations. Surgery could be performed in 18 (49%), overall mortality was 60%. On univariate analysis, low Apgar scores, presence of malformations, PPHN, need for higher initial peak inspiratory pressure/high frequency ventilation, and requirement of a patch for closure were associated with increased mortality. On multivariate analysis, PPHN remained the only significant risk factor [adjusted RR 3.74 (95% CI 1.45-9.68)].
The survival of infants with CDH is low, and PPHN is an important predictor of mortality.
评估先天性膈疝(CDH)新生儿的临床特征和死亡预测因素。
回顾 2014 年 1 月至 2017 年 10 月期间患有先天性膈疝的新生儿(n=37)的人口统计学和临床参数,并比较在医院存活或死亡的患者之间的差异。
中位数(范围)胎龄和出生体重分别为 38(37-39)周和 2496(2044-2889)g。19 例(51%)新生儿存在持续性肺动脉高压(PPHN),10 例(27%)存在相关畸形。18 例(49%)可进行手术,总死亡率为 60%。单因素分析显示,低 Apgar 评分、存在畸形、PPHN、需要更高的初始峰吸气压/高频通气以及需要补丁修补与死亡率增加相关。多因素分析显示,PPHN 仍然是唯一显著的死亡风险因素[调整后的 RR 3.74(95% CI 1.45-9.68)]。
CDH 患儿的生存率较低,PPHN 是死亡的重要预测因素。
