Abstract
Cardiac output monitoring enables physiology-directed management of critically ill children and aids in the early detection of clinical deterioration. Multiple invasive techniques have been developed and have demonstrated ability to improve clinical outcomes. However, all require invasive arterial or venous catheters, with associated risks of infection, thrombosis and vascular injury. Non-invasive monitoring of cardiac output and fluid responsiveness in infants and children is an active area of interest and several proven techniques are available. Novel non-invasive cardiac output monitors offer a promising alternative to echocardiography and have proven their ability to influence clinical practice. Assessment of perfusion remains a challenge; however, technologies such as near-infrared spectroscopy and photoplethysmography may prove valuable clinical adjuncts in the future.

Renal oximetry for early acute kidney injury detection in neonates with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy receiving therapeutic hypothermia. Pediatr Nephrol 2023; 38:2839-2849. [PMID: 36786860 DOI: 10.1007/s00467-023-05892-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/20/2022] [Revised: 01/08/2023] [Accepted: 01/19/2023] [Indexed: 02/15/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Neonates with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) receiving therapeutic hypothermia are at high risk of acute kidney injury (AKI). METHODS We performed a two-site prospective observational study from 2018 to 2019 to evaluate the utility of renal near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in detecting AKI in 38 neonates with HIE receiving therapeutic hypothermia. AKI was defined by a delayed rate of serum creatinine decline (< 33% on day 3 of life, < 40% on day 5, and < 46% on day 7). Renal saturation (Rsat) and systemic oxygen saturation (SpO2) were continuously measured for the first 96 h of life (HOL). Renal fractional tissue oxygen extraction (RFTOE) was calculated as (SpO2 - Rsat)/(SpO2). Using renal NIRS, urine biomarkers, and perinatal factors, logistic regression was performed to develop a model that predicted AKI. RESULTS AKI occurred in 20 of 38 neonates (53%). During the first 96 HOL, Rsat was higher, and RFTOE was lower in the AKI group vs. the no AKI group (P < 0.001). Rsat > 70% had a fair predictive performance for AKI at 48-84 HOL (AUC 0.71-0.79). RFTOE ≤ 25 had a good predictive performance for AKI at 42-66 HOL (AUC 0.8-0.83). The final statistical model with the best fit to predict AKI (AUC = 0.88) included RFTOE at 48 HOL (P = 0.012) and pH of the infants' first postnatal blood gas (P = 0.025). CONCLUSIONS Lower RFTOE on renal NIRS and pH on infant first blood gas may be early predictors for AKI in neonates with HIE receiving therapeutic hypothermia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Assessment of neurobehavior and visual function of newborns with congenital heart disease during the post-operative period to identify infants at risk of neurodevelopmental and visual impairment. STUDY DESIGN Prospective study that included 45 newborns who underwent cardiac surgery. Newborn Behavioral Observations test (NBO) and "ML Battery of Optotypes" were used for assessment. RESULTS The median NBO global score was 2.4 [2.1-2.6]. Total days of oral morphine [p = 0.005] and total days of sedation [p = 0.009] were strongly related to abnormal evaluations. Time of cerebral regional oxygen saturation (CrSO2) under 40% during surgery and increased lactate were related to abnormal motor evaluation. Only 14.5% of patients presented pathological results in visual evaluation. CONCLUSIONS We have demonstrated alterations in attention, autonomic, motor, and oral motor function. Duration of sedative medication, time of CrSO2 under 40% during surgery, and increased lactate are the most important risk factors. No significant visual impairment was detected.

Use of Renal Near-Infrared Spectroscopy and Urinary Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin Monitoring as Indicators of Acute Kidney Injury in Pediatric Cardiac Surgery. J Clin Med 2023; 12:jcm12062085. [PMID: 36983088 PMCID: PMC10056572 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12062085] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/02/2023] [Revised: 02/28/2023] [Accepted: 03/06/2023] [Indexed: 03/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication following cardiac surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in children. A prospective study for examining urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and renal near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) trends during AKI was conducted among pediatric patients undergoing cardiac surgery with CPB. Urinary NGAL showed a significant difference between intensive care unit admission (0 h) and 2 h post-admission (p < 0.001) and remained significant up to 4 h (p < 0.05). The renal NIRS in the AKI group showed a significant rate of decrease and lower values during the intraoperative period (p < 0.05). The cumulative median saturation of renal regional saturation of oxygen (rSO2) during CPB was 1637.5% min in the AKI group and 943.0% min in the non-AKI group. The median renal rSO2 scores at a reduction of 20% and 25% were significantly higher (p < 0.001) in the AKI group. Our results suggest that monitoring renal rSO2 scores and limiting their decline might be useful in preventing AKI. The combination of NGAL, renal rSO2, and renal rSO2 scores might be useful in the early diagnosis of AKI during pediatric cardiac surgery.

Early Cerebrovascular Autoregulation in Neonates with Congenital Heart Disease. CHILDREN 2022; 9:children9111686. [DOI: 10.3390/children9111686] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2022] [Revised: 10/28/2022] [Accepted: 11/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/06/2022]
Abstract
Neonates with congenital heart disease (CHD) display delayed brain development, predisposing them to impaired cerebrovascular autoregulation (CAR) and ischemic brain injury. For this paper, we analyzed the percentage of time with impaired CAR (%time impaired CAR) during the first 72 h after birth, the relation with clinical factors, and survival in 57 neonates with CHD. The primary outcome was a correlation coefficient of cerebral oxygenation (rcSO2) and mean arterial blood pressure (MABP, mmHg) for two hours on a daily basis. The %time impaired CAR ranged from 9.3% of the studied time on day one to 4.6% on day three. Variables associated with more %time impaired CAR were the use of inotropes (day 1, B = 19.5, 95%CI = 10.6–28.3; day 3, B = 11.5, 95%CI = 7.1–16), lower MABP (day 1, B = −0.6, 95%CI = −1.2–0.0), and dextro-transposition of the great arteries (dTGA) (16.2%) compared with other CHD types (2.0–5.0%; day 1, p = 0.022). Survival was not an associated variable. To summarize, impaired CAR was found in CHD neonates in up to 9.3% of the studied time. More evidence is necessary to evaluate an association with inotropes, dTGA, %time impaired CAR, and long-term outcome, further in larger cohorts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Near-infrared spectroscopy measures cerebral saturation (Csat), although correlation with cerebral blood flow remains unclear in premature newborns at risk for intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH). OBJECTIVES Compare Doppler markers of anterior cerebral artery (ACA) flow with Csat obtained during head ultrasound (HUS). METHOD Newborns <29 weeks (2013-2017) underwent Csat monitoring with clinical acquisition of HUS. ACA Doppler markers were measured (with and without pressure) and Resistive Index (RI) was calculated. Mixed effects models evaluated the association between Csat and Doppler markers. RESULTS 98 neonates with 175 Csat-HUS observations were analyzed. Age at birth was 26.2 ± 1.5 weeks, with post-menstrual age of 26.9 ± 1.7 weeks at HUS. Csat was associated with RI without pressure (p = 0.045), RI with pressure (p = 0.019), and peak systolic velocity with pressure (p = 0.036). Severe IVH (n = 27 [15%]) was associated with lower Csat (60 ± 11% vs 68 ± 9%, p = 0.01). CONCLUSION Csat was associated with ACA Doppler measurements in extremely premature neonates.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury (AKI) affects approximately 30% of infants admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), and increases mortality risk by 50%. Current diagnostic criteria (serum creatinine rise with oliguria) cannot detect early-onset AKI, as up to 50% of nephron damage may occur by the time these abnormalities present. Once AKI is established, clinical management is often ineffective; therefore, prevention is key. Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) offers a feasible, noninvasive approach to continuously monitor renal oxygenation trends over time, serving as a surrogate marker for renal perfusion. PURPOSE To provide an overview of NIRS principles for measuring renal oxygenation, and to describe current evidence of how this technology is being used among infants admitted to the NICU relative to the prediction and identification of AKI. METHODS A comprehensive search of PubMed and CINHAL focused on renal NIRS studies in NICU preterm and term infants was conducted. RESULTS Findings from 34 studies were included. In term infants, reduced renal oxygenation correlated to invasive SvO2 monitoring, predicted survivability and AKI. In preterm infants, reduced renal oxygenation was associated with AKI in one study, yet contrasting findings were reported in those with patent ductus arteriosus, including those who received prostaglandin inhibitors. Normative data in all infants were sparse. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE Renal NIRS may offer a noninvasive measurement of kidney hypoperfusion that may precede conventional diagnostic measures. IMPLICATIONS FOR RESEARCH Normative data are lacking, the threshold for renal ischemia is not defined, and consensus guiding clinical treatment based on NIRS data is nonexistent.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) measures of cerebral saturation (Csat) and renal saturation (Rsat) in extreme premature newborns may be affected by systemic blood flow fluctuations. Despite increasing clinical use of NIRS to monitor tissue saturation in the premature infant, validation of NIRS measures as a correlate of blood flow is still needed. We compared echocardiography (ECHO) derived markers of ascending aorta (AscAo) and descending aorta (DesAo) blood flow with NIRS measurements obtained during the ECHO. METHODS Newborns < 29 weeks' gestation (2013-2017) underwent routine NIRS monitoring. Csat, Rsat and systemic saturation at the time of ECHO were retrospectively analyzed and compared with Doppler markers of aortic flow. Renal and cerebral fractional tissue oxygen extraction (rFTOE and cFTOE, respectively) were calculated. Mixed effects models evaluated the association between NIRS and Doppler markers. RESULTS Forty-nine neonates with 75 Csat-ECHO and 62 Rsat-ECHO observations were studied. Mean post-menstrual age was 28.3 ± 3.8 weeks during the ECHO. Preductal measures including AscAo velocity time integral (VTI) and AscAo output were correlated with Csat or cFTOE, while postductal measures including DesAo VTI, DesAo peak systolic velocity, and estimated DesAo output were more closely correlated with Rsat or rFTOE. CONCLUSIONS NIRS measures are associated with aortic blood flow measurements by ECHO in the extremely premature population. NIRS is a tool to consider when following end organ perfusion in the preterm infant.

Abstract
Cerebrovascular pressure autoregulation promotes stable cerebral blood flow (CBF) across a range of arterial blood pressures. Cerebral autoregulation (CA) is a developmental process that reaches maturity around term gestation and can be monitored prenatally with both Doppler ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques. Postnatally, there are key advantages and limitations to assessing CA with Doppler ultrasound, MRI, and near-infrared spectroscopy. Here we review these CBF monitoring techniques as well as their application to both fetal and neonatal populations at risk of perturbations in CBF. Specifically, we discuss CBF monitoring in fetuses with intrauterine growth restriction, anemia, congenital heart disease, neonates born preterm and those with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy. We conclude the review with insights into the future directions in this field with an emphasis on collaborative science and precision medicine approaches.

Abstract
Adequate oxygenation of the kidney is of critical importance in the neonate. Non-invasive monitoring of renal tissue oxygenation using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a promising bedside strategy for early detection of circulatory impairment as well as recognition of specific renal injury. As a diagnostic tool, renal NIRS monitoring may allow for earlier interventions to prevent or reduce injury in various clinical scenarios in the neonatal intensive care unit. Multiple studies utilizing NIRS monitoring in preterm and term infants have provided renal tissue oxygenation values at different time points during neonatal hospitalization, and have correlated measures with ultrasound and Doppler flow data. With the establishment of normal values, studies have utilized renal tissue oxygenation monitoring in preterm neonates to predict a hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus, to assess response to potentially nephrotoxic medications, to identify infants with sepsis, and to describe changes after red blood cell transfusions. Other neonatal populations being investigated with renal NIRS monitoring include growth restricted infants, those requiring delivery room resuscitation, infants with congenital heart disease, and neonates undergoing extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Furthermore, as the recognition of acute kidney injury (AKI) and its associated morbidity and mortality in neonates has increased over the last decade, alternative methods are being investigated to diagnose AKI before changes in serum creatinine or urine output occur. Studies have utilized renal NIRS monitoring to diagnose AKI in specific populations, including neonates with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy after birth asphyxia and in infants after cardiac bypass surgery. The use of renal tissue oxygenation monitoring to improve renal outcomes has yet to be established, but results of studies published to date suggest that it holds significant promise to function as a real time, early indicator of poor renal perfusion that may help with development of specific treatment protocols to prevent or decrease the severity of AKI.
