There is no clear consensus on the optimal operative management of premature infants with surgical necrotizing enterocolitis (sNEC) or spontaneous intestinal perforation (SIP); thus, a protocol was developed to guide surgical decision making regarding initial peritoneal drainage (PD) versus initial laparotomy (LAP). We sought to evaluate outcomes after implementation of the protocol.
Pre-post study including multiple urban hospitals. Premature infants with sNEC/SIP were accrued after implementation of surgical protocol-directed care (June 2014-June 2019). Patients with a birth weight of <750 g and less than 2 wk of age without pneumatosis or portal venous gas were treated with PD on perforation. PD patients received subsequent LAP for clinical deterioration or continued meconium/bilious drainage. Postprotocol characteristics and outcomes were compared with institutional historical controls. Significance set at P < 0.05.
Preprotocol and postprotocol cohorts comprise 35 and 73 patients, respectively. There was a statistically significant difference in age at intervention between historical control PD (14 ± 13 d) and postprotocol PD (9 ± 4 d) groups (P = 0.01), PD patient's birth weight (716 ± 212 g versus 610 ± 141 g, P = 0.02) and estimated gestational age of LAP patients (27 ± 1.7 wk versus 31 ± 4 wk, P = 0.002). PD was definitive surgery in 27% (12 of 44) of postprotocol patients compared with 13% (3 of 23) historical controls. A trend in improved survival postprotocol occurred in all PD infants (73% versus 65%), all LAP (75% versus 70%), and for initial PD and subsequent LAP (82% versus 67%).
Utilization of a surgical protocol in sNEC/SIP is associated with improved success of PD as definitive surgery and improved survival.
对于患有外科坏死性小肠结肠炎(sNEC)或自发性肠穿孔(SIP)的早产儿,目前对于最佳手术治疗方法尚无明确共识;因此,制定了一个方案以指导初始腹腔引流(PD)与初始剖腹手术(LAP)之间的手术决策。我们旨在评估方案实施后的结果。
包括多家城市医院的前后研究。在实施外科方案指导治疗(2014 年 6 月至 2019 年 6 月)后,纳入患有 sNEC/SIP 的早产儿。出生体重<750g 且<2 周龄且无气腹或门静脉积气的患者,穿孔后给予 PD 治疗。PD 患者出现临床恶化或持续有胎粪/胆汁引流时,行后续 LAP。与机构历史对照相比,比较方案前后的特征和结果。设定 P<0.05 有统计学意义。
方案前和方案后队列分别包含 35 例和 73 例患者。历史对照 PD(14±13d)和方案后 PD 组之间干预时的年龄存在统计学显著差异(P=0.01),PD 患者的出生体重(716±212g 比 610±141g,P=0.02)和 LAP 患者的估计胎龄(27±1.7 周比 31±4 周,P=0.002)。与历史对照的 13%(3/23)相比,方案后 27%(12/44)的 PD 患者行 PD 作为确定性手术。所有 PD 婴儿(73%比 65%)、所有 LAP 婴儿(75%比 70%)以及初始 PD 和后续 LAP 婴儿(82%比 67%)的方案后生存率均有提高的趋势。
sNEC/SIP 中外科方案的应用与 PD 作为确定性手术的成功率提高和生存率提高相关。
