Apnea, Intermittent Hypoxemia, and Bradycardia Events Predict Late-Onset Sepsis in Infants Born Extremely Preterm. J Pediatr 2024; 271:114042. [PMID: 38570031 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpeds.2024.114042] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2023] [Revised: 03/21/2024] [Accepted: 03/26/2024] [Indexed: 04/05/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to examine the association of cardiorespiratory events, including apnea, periodic breathing, intermittent hypoxemia (IH), and bradycardia, with late-onset sepsis for extremely preterm infants (<29 weeks of gestational age) on vs off invasive mechanical ventilation. STUDY DESIGN This is a retrospective analysis of data from infants enrolled in Pre-Vent (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT03174301), an observational study in 5 level IV neonatal intensive care units. Clinical data were analyzed for 737 infants (mean gestational age: 26.4 weeks, SD 1.71). Monitoring data were available and analyzed for 719 infants (47 512 patient-days); of whom, 109 had 123 sepsis events. Using continuous monitoring data, we quantified apnea, periodic breathing, bradycardia, and IH. We analyzed the relationships between these daily measures and late-onset sepsis (positive blood culture >72 hours after birth and ≥5-day antibiotics). RESULTS For infants not on a ventilator, apnea, periodic breathing, and bradycardia increased before sepsis diagnosis. During times on a ventilator, increased sepsis risk was associated with longer events with oxygen saturation <80% (IH80) and more bradycardia events before sepsis. IH events were associated with higher sepsis risk but did not dynamically increase before sepsis, regardless of ventilator status. A multivariable model including postmenstrual age, cardiorespiratory variables (apnea, periodic breathing, IH80, and bradycardia), and ventilator status predicted sepsis with an area under the receiver operator characteristic curve of 0.783. CONCLUSION We identified cardiorespiratory signatures of late-onset sepsis. Longer IH events were associated with increased sepsis risk but did not change temporally near diagnosis. Increases in bradycardia, apnea, and periodic breathing preceded the clinical diagnosis of sepsis.

Abstract
Objectives Detection of changes in cardiorespiratory events, including apnea, periodic breathing, intermittent hypoxemia (IH), and bradycardia, may facilitate earlier detection of sepsis. Our objective was to examine the association of cardiorespiratory events with late-onset sepsis for extremely preterm infants (<29 weeks' gestational age (GA)) on versus off invasive mechanical ventilation. Study Design Retrospective analysis of data from infants enrolled in Pre-Vent (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT03174301), an observational study in five level IV neonatal intensive care units.

Cao Y, Bai C, Si P, Yan X, Zhang P, Yisha Z, Lu P, Tuoheti K, Guo L, Chen Z, Bai X, Liu T. A novel model of urosepsis in rats developed by injection of Escherichia coli into the renal pelvis. Front Immunol 2023; 13:1074488. [PMID: 36685507 PMCID: PMC9849364 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2022.1074488] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2022] [Accepted: 12/15/2022] [Indexed: 01/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Despite extensive research, urosepsis remains a life-threatening, high-mortality disease. Currently, animal models of urosepsis widely accepted by investigators are very scarce. This study aimed to establish a standardized and reproducible model of urosepsis in rats. Forty adult Wistar rats were randomly divided into four groups according to the concentration of injected E. coli suspensions: Sham, Sep 3×, Sep 6×, and Sep 12×. Because the ureter is so thin and fragile, no conventional needle can be inserted into the ureter, which is probably why rats are rarely used to develop models of urosepsis. To solve this problem, the left ureter was ligated in the first procedure. After 24 hours, the left ureter above the ligation was significantly dilated, then saline or different concentrations of E. coli at 3 ml/kg were injected into the left renal pelvis using a 30G needle. The left ureter was subsequently ligated again at a distance of 1 cm from the renal hilum to maintain high pressure in the renal pelvis. Following injection of E. coli or saline for 24 h, three rats from each group were sacrificed and their organs (lung, liver, and right kidney) were collected. In contrast, the remaining seven rats continued to be observed for survival. At 10 days after E. coli injection, rats in the sep12× group had a higher mortality rate (100%) compared to the sep3× group (28.6%) or the sep6× group (71.4%). The significant changes in peripheral blood WBC count, serum IL-6 and TNF-α levels were also in the sep12× group. In addition, rats in the sepsis group showed multi-organ dysfunction, including damage to the lungs, liver, and kidneys. The establishment of a standardized rat model of urosepsis may be of great value for studying the pathophysiological of urosepsis.
