Abstract
OBJECTIVE The Canadian Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH) Collaborative sought to make its existing clinical practice guideline, published in 2018, into a 'living document'. DESIGN AND MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Critical appraisal of CDH literature adhering to Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) methodology. Evidence accumulated between 1 January 2017 and 30 August 2022 was analysed to inform changes to existing or the development of new CDH care recommendations. Strength of consensus was also determined using a modified Delphi process among national experts in the field. RESULTS Of the 3868 articles retrieved in our search that covered the 15 areas of CDH care, 459 underwent full-text review. Ultimately, 103 articles were used to inform 20 changes to existing recommendations, which included aspects related to prenatal diagnosis, echocardiographic evaluation, pulmonary hypertension management, surgical readiness criteria, the type of surgical repair and long-term health surveillance. Fifteen new CDH care recommendations were also created using this evidence, with most related to the management of pain and the provision of analgesia and neuromuscular blockade for patients with CDH. CONCLUSIONS The 2023 Canadian CDH Collaborative's clinical practice guideline update provides a management framework for infants and children with CDH based on the best available evidence and expert consensus.

Effect of cannula insertion site during fetal endoscopic tracheal occlusion for congenital diaphragmatic hernia on preterm prelabor rupture of membranes. ULTRASOUND IN OBSTETRICS & GYNECOLOGY : THE OFFICIAL JOURNAL OF THE INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY OF ULTRASOUND IN OBSTETRICS AND GYNECOLOGY 2024; 63:529-535. [PMID: 38051135 DOI: 10.1002/uog.27548] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2023] [Revised: 11/02/2023] [Accepted: 11/17/2023] [Indexed: 12/07/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess whether the cannula insertion site on the maternal abdomen during fetal endoscopic tracheal occlusion (FETO) for congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) was associated with preterm prelabor rupture of membranes (PPROM) before balloon removal. METHODS This was a multicenter retrospective study of consecutive pregnancies with isolated left- or right-sided CDH that underwent FETO in four centers between January 2009 and January 2021. The site for balloon insertion was categorized as above or below the umbilicus. One propensity score was analyzed in both groups to calculate an average treatment effect (ATE) by inverse probability of treatment weighting. Logistic regression and Cox proportional hazard regression including the ATE weights were performed to examine the effect size of entry point on the frequency and timing of PPROM before balloon removal. RESULTS A total of 294 patients were included. The mean ± SD gestational age at PPROM was 33.45 ± 2.01 weeks and the mean rate of PPROM before balloon removal was 25.9% (76/294). Gestational age at FETO was later in the below-umbilicus group (mean ± SD, 29.47 ± 1.29 weeks vs 29.00 ± 1.25 weeks; P = 0.002) and the duration of FETO was longer in the above-umbilicus group (median, 14.49 min (interquartile range (IQR), 8.00-21.00 min) vs 11.00 min (IQR, 7.00-14.49 min); P = 0.002). After balancing for possible confounding factors, trocar entry point below the umbilicus did not increase the risk of PPROM before balloon removal (adjusted odds ratio, 1.56 (95% CI, 0.89-2.74); P = 0.120) and had no effect on the timing of PPROM before balloon removal (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.56 (95% CI, 0.95-2.55); P = 0.080). CONCLUSION There was no evidence that uterine entry site for FETO was correlated with the risk of PPROM before balloon removal. © 2023 International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To describe the outcomes of preterm born infants with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH; ≤32.0 weeks of gestation) and the associations between prenatal imaging markers and survival. DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. SETTING Multicentre study in large referral centres. POPULATION Infants with an isolated unilateral CDH, live born at 32.0 weeks or less of gestation, between January 2009 and January 2020. METHODS Neonatal outcomes were evaluated for infants that were expectantly managed during pregnancy and infants that underwent fetoscopic endoluminal tracheal occlusion (FETO) therapy, separately. We evaluated the association between prenatal imaging markers and survival to discharge. Prenatal imaging markers included observed to expected lung-to-head ratio (o/e LHR), side of the defect, liver position, stomach position grade, and observed to expected total fetal lung volume (o/e TFLV). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE Survival to discharge. RESULTS We included 53 infants born at 30+4 (interquartile range 29+1 -31+2 ) weeks. Survival in fetuses expectantly managed during pregnancy was 48% (13/27) in left-sided CDH and 33% (2/6) in right-sided CDH. Survival in fetuses that underwent FETO therapy was 50% (6/12) in left-sided CDH and 25% (2/8) in right-sided CDH. The o/e LHR at baseline was positively associated with survival in cases expectantly managed during pregnancy (odds ratio [OR] 1.20, 95% CI 1.07-1.42, p < 0.01), but not in cases that received FETO therapy (OR 1.01, 95% CI 0.88-1.15, p = 0.87). Stomach position grade (p = 0.03) and o/e TFLV were associated with survival (p = 0.02); liver position was not (p = 0.13). CONCLUSIONS In infants with CDH born at or before 32 weeks of gestation, prenatal imaging markers of disease severity were associated with postnatal survival.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare disease severity and mortality differences between female and male patients with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). STUDY DESIGN We queried the CDH Study Group (CDHSG) database for CDH neonates managed between 2007 and 2018. Female and males were compared in statistical analyses using t tests, χ² tests, and Cox regression, as appropriate (P ≤ .05). RESULTS There were 7288 CDH patients, of which 3048 (41.8%) were female. Females weighed less on average at birth than males (2.84 kg vs 2.97 kg, P < .001) despite comparable gestational age. Females had similar rates of extracorporeal life support (ECLS) utilization (27.8% vs 27.3%, P = .65). Although both cohorts had equivalent defect size and rates of patch repair, female patients had increased rates of intrathoracic liver herniation (49.2% vs 45.9%, P = .01) and pulmonary hypertension (PH) (86.6% vs 81.1%, P < .001). Females had lower survival rates at 30-days (77.3% vs 80.1%, P = .003) and overall lower survival to discharge (70.2% vs 74.2%, P < .001). Subgroup analysis revealed that increased mortality was significant among those who underwent repair but were never supported on ECLS (P = .005). On Cox regression analysis, female sex was independently associated with mortality (adjusted hazard ratio 1.32, P = .02). CONCLUSION After controlling for the established prenatal and postnatal predictors of mortality, female sex remains independently associated with a higher risk of mortality in CDH. Further study into the underlying causes for sex-specific disparities in CDH outcomes is warranted.

Abstract
Purpose of the study Brindle et al. (2014) and the Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia Study Group constructed a simplified clinical prediction rule (Brindle score) to stratify infants with congenital diaphragmatic hernia based on disease severity. We aimed to develop a predictive model applicable to Chinese patients with congenital diaphragmatic hernia and externally validate whether the Brindle score is applicable to the Chinese population. Patients and the methods Multiple imputations supplemented the missing data. A least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression was used to screen the factors influencing adverse outcomes. Internal validation was performed by bootstrap resampling. The C-index, area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, and the Hosmer-Lemeshow test evaluated the predictive power. Results A nomogram named "CCDH score" (Chinese Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia score), including pulmonary hypertension, low 5-min Apgar score (<7), chromosomal anomaly, major cardiac anomalies (MCAs), observed-to-expected lung-to-head ratio, and the percentage of liver herniation, was constructed. The CCDH score revealed good calibration and discriminative abilities, with a C-index of 0.941. In the training and external validation cohorts, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the Brindle score were 0.820 and 0.881, respectively. The Brindle score has fair predictive power in the Chinese population, but the newly established CCDH score seems more suitable for Chinese patients with congenital diaphragmatic hernia. Conclusion The CCDH score is the first predictive model constructed based on the characteristics of the Chinese population and can accurately predict the survival outcomes of patients with congenital diaphragmatic hernia.

Abstract
Congenital malformations are defined as single or multiple defects of the morphogenesis of organs or body parts, identifiable during intrauterine life or at birth. With recent advances in prenatal detection of congenital malformations, many of these disorders can be identified early on a routine fetal ultrasound. The aim of the present systematic review is to systematize the current knowledge about the mode of delivery in pregnancies complicated by fetal anomalies. The databases Medline and Ebsco were searched from 2002 to 2022. The inclusion criteria were prenatally diagnosed fetal malformation, singleton pregnancy, and known delivery mode. After the first round of research, 546 studies were found. For further analysis, studies with full text available concerning human single pregnancy with known neonatal outcomes were considered. Publications were divided into six groups: congenital heart defects, neural tube defects, gastroschisis, fetal tumors, microcephaly, and lung and thorax malformations. Eighteen articles with a descripted delivery mode and neonatal outcome were chosen for further analysis. In most pregnancies complicated by the presence of fetal anomalies, spontaneous vaginal delivery should be a primary option, as it is associated with lower maternal morbidity and mortality. Cesarean delivery is generally indicated if a fetal anomaly is associated with the risk of dystocia, bleeding, or disruption of a protective sac; examples of such anomalies include giant omphaloceles, severe hydrocephalus, and large myelomeningocele and teratomas. Fetal anatomy ultrasound should be carried out early, leaving enough time to familiarize parents with all available options, including pregnancy termination, if an anomaly is detected.

Abstract
Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is a developmental defect in the diaphragm that allows abdominal viscera to herniate into the thoracic cavity. Pulmonary hypoplasia and pulmonary hypertension are consequences of this disease process. The incidence is approximately 2.4-4.1/10,000 births, and survival rate is estimated at 70-90 percent. To avoid potentially devastating delays in care, it is crucial that neonatal nurses and care providers in both tertiary and nontertiary care centers be familiar with the pathogenesis of CDH and the standard of care for initial stabilization of the neonate. Novel fetal and postnatal surgical repair techniques are also described here.

Abstract
Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is characterized by a defect in the muscle dividing the thoracic and abdominal cavities. This leads to herniation of the abdominal organs into the thorax and a disturbance of lung development. Two-thirds of cases are identified by prenatal ultrasound in the second trimester, which should prompt referral to a tertiary center for prognosis assessment and counseling by a multidisciplinary team familiar with this condition. In this review, we summarize evidence on prenatal diagnosis and postnatal management of CDH. There is a focus on information that should be provided to expecting parents during prenatal counseling.
