Yu WH, Chu CH, Chen LW, Lin YC, Koh CL, Huang CC. The developmental phenotype of motor delay in extremely preterm infants following early-life respiratory adversity is influenced by brain dysmaturation in the parietal lobe. J Neurodev Disord 2024; 16:38. [PMID: 39010007 PMCID: PMC11247839 DOI: 10.1186/s11689-024-09546-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/02/2024] [Accepted: 05/21/2024] [Indexed: 07/17/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Research indicates that preterm infants requiring prolonged mechanical ventilation often exhibit suboptimal neurodevelopment at follow-up, coupled with altered brain development as detected by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at term-equivalent age (TEA). However, specific regions of brain dysmaturation and the subsequent neurodevelopmental phenotype following early-life adverse respiratory exposures remain unclear. Additionally, it is uncertain whether brain dysmaturation mediates neurodevelopmental outcomes after respiratory adversity. This study aims to investigate the relationship between early-life adverse respiratory exposures, brain dysmaturation at TEA, and the developmental phenotype observed during follow-up in extremely preterm infants. METHODS 89 infants born < 29 weeks' gestation from 2019 to 2021 received MRI examinations at TEA for structural and lobe brain volumes, which were adjusted with sex-and-postmenstrual-age expected volumes for volume residuals. Assisted ventilation patterns in the first 8 postnatal weeks were analyzed using kmlShape analyses. Patterns for motor, cognition, and language development were evaluated from corrected age 6 to 12 months using Bayley Scales of Infant Development, third edition. Mediation effects of brain volumes between early-life respiratory exposures and neurodevelopmental phenotypes were adjusted for sex, gestational age, maternal education, and severe brain injury. RESULTS Two distinct respiratory trajectories with varying severity were identified: improving (n = 35, 39%) and delayed improvement (n = 54, 61%). Compared with the improving group, the delayed improvement group exhibited selectively reduced brain volume residuals in the parietal lobe (mean - 4.9 cm3, 95% confidence interval - 9.4 to - 0.3) at TEA and lower motor composite scores (- 8.7, - 14.2 to - 3.1) at corrected age 12 months. The association between delayed respiratory improvement and inferior motor performance (total effect - 8.7, - 14.8 to - 3.3) was partially mediated through reduced parietal lobe volume (natural indirect effect - 1.8, - 4.9 to - 0.01), suggesting a mediating effect of 20%. CONCLUSIONS Early-life adverse respiratory exposure is specifically linked to the parietal lobe dysmaturation and neurodevelopmental phenotype of motor delay at follow-up. Dysmaturation of the parietal lobe serves as a mediator in the connection between respiratory adversity and compromised motor development. Optimizing respiratory critical care may emerge as a potential avenue to mitigate the consequences of altered brain growth and motor developmental delay in this extremely preterm population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess the effectiveness and safety of prone positioning in the treatment of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (NRDS) using invasive respiratory support. METHODS A prospective study was conducted from June 2020 to September 2023 at Suining County People's Hospital, involving 77 preterm infants with gestational ages less than 35 weeks requiring invasive respiratory support for NRDS. The infants were randomly divided into a supine group (37 infants) and a prone group (40 infants). Infants in the prone group were ventilated in the prone position for 6 hours followed by 2 hours in the supine position, continuing in this cycle until weaning from the ventilator. The effectiveness and safety of the two approaches were compared. RESULTS At 6 hours after enrollment, the prone group showed lower arterial blood carbon dioxide levels, inspired oxygen concentration, oxygenation index, rates of tracheal intubation bacterial colonization, and Neonatal Pain, Agitation and Sedation Scale scores compared to the supine group (P<0.05). There were no significant differences between the groups in terms of pH, arterial oxygen pressure, positive end-expiratory pressure, duration of mechanical ventilation, accidental extubation, ventilator-associated pneumonia, air leak syndrome, skin pressure sores, feeding intolerance, and grades II-IV intraventricular hemorrhage (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS Compared to supine positioning, prone ventilation effectively improves oxygenation, increases comfort, and reduces tracheal intubation bacterial colonization in neonates requiring mechanical ventilation for NRDS, without significantly increasing adverse reactions.

Pediatr Neonatol 2024:S1875-9572(24)00091-3. [PMID: 38908947 DOI: 10.1016/j.pedneo.2023.12.010] [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: 10/07/2023] [Revised: 12/10/2023] [Accepted: 12/21/2023] [Indexed: 06/24/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to analyze the use of corticosteroids and epinephrine in neonates for the first extubation attempt and compared clinical characteristics of infants with successful and failed extubation events. METHODS This was a retrospective cohort study conducted at a single level III neonatal intensive care unit in Taiwan. The study included 215 infants born between 2020 and 2021 who had been intubated for more than 48 h before their first extubation attempt. We compared perinatal and peri-extubation characteristics and outcomes between the two groups. Successful extubation was defined as freedom from invasive ventilatory support 72 h after extubation. The relationship between corticosteroids, local epinephrine, and successful extubation was determined using multivariate logistic regression analysis. RESULTS In the univariate analysis, the failed extubation group received a significantly higher proportion of intravenous dexamethasone (p = 0.006) than the successful extubation group. Furthermore, the failed extubation group had a longer duration of nebulized epinephrine (p = 0.034) and more episodes of local application of epinephrine to the superior larynx (p = 0.003) than the successful extubation group. Multivariate analysis revealed that the absence of lung atelectasis, tachycardia 72 h after extubation, and lower post-extubation PCO2 were the key factors associated with successful extubation. CONCLUSIONS There were trends toward systemic dexamethasone, local application of epinephrine to the superior larynx, and longer duration of nebulized epinephrine in the reintubation group. However, corticosteroid or local epinephrine use was not significantly associated with successful extubation. Lung atelectasis, elevated levels of carbon dioxide, and tachycardia were identified as risk factors for extubation failure.

Synergistic effects of achieving perinatal interventions on bronchopulmonary dysplasia in preterm infants. Eur J Pediatr 2024; 183:1711-1721. [PMID: 38231237 DOI: 10.1007/s00431-023-05355-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2023] [Revised: 11/24/2023] [Accepted: 11/28/2023] [Indexed: 01/18/2024]
Abstract
To investigate the effect of perinatal interventions on the risk of severe BPD (sBPD) and death in extremely preterm infants (EPIs) and their synergistic effects. This was a secondary analysis of the prospective cohort Chinese Neonatal Network (CHNN). Infants with a birth weight of 500 to 1250 g or 24-28 weeks completed gestational age were recruited. The impacts and the synergistic effects of six evidence-based perinatal interventions on the primary outcomes of sBPD and death were assessed by univariate and multivariable logistic regression modeling. Totally, 6568 EPIs were finally enrolled. Antenatal corticosteroid (adjusted OR, aOR, 0.74; 95%CI, 0.65-083), birth in centers with tertiary NICU (aOR, 0.64; 95%CI, 0.57-0.72), preventing intubation in the delivery room (aOR, 0.65; 95%CI, 0.58-0.73), early caffeine therapy (aOR, 0.59; 95%CI, 0.52-0.66), and early extubating (aOR, 0.42; 95%CI 0.37-0.47), were strongly associated with a lower risk of sBPD and death while early surfactant administration was associated with a lower risk of death (aOR, 0.84; 95%CI, 0.72, 0.98). Compared with achieving 0/1 perinatal interventions, achieving more than one intervention was associated with decreased rates (46.6% in 0/1 groups while 38.5%, 29.6%, 22.2%, 16.2%, and 11.7% in 2/3/4/5/6-intervention groups respectively) and reduced risks of sBPD/death with aORs of 0.76(0.60, 0.96), 0.55(0.43, 0.69), 0.38(0.30, 0.48), 0.28(0.22, 0.36), and 0.20(0.15, 0.27) in 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 intervention groups respectively. Subgroup analyses showed consistent results. CONCLUSION Six perinatal interventions can effectively reduce the risk of sBPD and death in a synergistic form. WHAT IS KNOWN • Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a multifactorial chronic lung disease associated with prematurity. The effective management of BPD requires a comprehensive set of interventions. However, the extent to which these interventions can mitigate the risk of severe outcomes, such as severe BPD or mortality, or if they possess synergistic effects remains unknown. WHAT IS NEW • The implementation of various perinatal interventions, such as prenatal steroids, birth in centers with tertiary NICU, early non-Invasive respiratory support, surfactant administration within 2 hours after birth, early caffeine initiation within 3 days, and early extubation within 7 days after birth has shown promising results in the prevention of severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) or mortality in extremely preterm infants. Moreover, these interventions have demonstrated synergistic effects when implemented in combination.

J Perinatol 2024; 44:250-256. [PMID: 38123799 DOI: 10.1038/s41372-023-01849-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2023] [Revised: 11/22/2023] [Accepted: 12/01/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify variables associated with extubation success in extremely preterm neonates extubated from invasive volume-targeted ventilation. STUDY DESIGN We retrospectively evaluated 84 neonates ≤28 weeks' gestational age, on their first elective extubation. The primary outcome of successful extubation was defined as non-reintubation within seven days. We used multivariate logistic regression analysis. RESULTS We identified 58 (69%) neonates (mean gestational age of 26.5 ± 1.4 weeks, birthweight 921 ± 217 g) who met the primary outcome. Female sex (OR 1.15, 95% CI 1.01-9.10), higher pre-extubation weight (OR 1.29, 95% CI 1.05-1.59), and pH (OR 2.54, 95% CI 1.54-4.19), and lower pre-extubation mean airway pressure (MAP) (OR 0.49, 95% CI 0.33-0.73) were associated with successful extubation. CONCLUSIONS In preterm neonates, female sex, higher pre-extubation weight and pH, and lower pre-extubation MAP were predictors of successful extubation from volume-targeted ventilation. Evaluation of these variables will likely assist clinicians in selecting the optimal time for extubation in such vulnerable neonates.

A Survey of the Union of European Neonatal and Perinatal Societies on Neonatal Respiratory Care in Neonatal Intensive Care Units. CHILDREN (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 11:158.

Abstract
(1) Background: Our survey aimed to gather information on respiratory care in Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICUs) in the European and Mediterranean region. (2) Methods: Cross-sectional electronic survey. An 89-item questionnaire focusing on the current modes, devices, and strategies employed in neonatal units in the domain of respiratory care was sent to directors/heads of 528 NICUs. The adherence to the "European consensus guidelines on the management of respiratory distress syndrome" was assessed for comparison. (3) Results: The response rate was 75% (397/528 units). In most Delivery Rooms (DRs), full resuscitation is given from 22 to 23 weeks gestational age. A T-piece device with facial masks or short binasal prongs are commonly used for respiratory stabilization. Initial FiO2 is set as per guidelines. Most units use heated humidified gases to prevent heat loss. SpO2 and ECG monitoring are largely performed. Surfactant in the DR is preferentially given through Intubation-Surfactant-Extubation (INSURE) or Less-Invasive-Surfactant-Administration (LISA) techniques. DR caffeine is widespread. In the NICUs, most of the non-invasive modes used are nasal CPAP and nasal intermittent positive-pressure ventilation. Volume-targeted, synchronized intermittent positive-pressure ventilation is the preferred invasive mode to treat acute respiratory distress. Pulmonary recruitment maneuvers are common approaches. During NICU stay, surfactant administration is primarily guided by FiO2 and SpO2/FiO2 ratio, and it is mostly performed through LISA or INSURE. Steroids are used to facilitate extubation and prevent bronchopulmonary dysplasia. (4) Conclusions: Overall, clinical practices are in line with the 2022 European Guidelines, but there are some divergences. These data will allow stakeholders to make comparisons and to identify opportunities for improvement.

[PMID: 37784184 PMCID: PMC10546653 DOI: 10.1186/s13052-023-01538-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/06/2023] [Accepted: 09/21/2023] [Indexed: 10/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Extubation failure (EF) is a significant concern in mechanically ventilated newborns, and predicting its occurrence is an ongoing area of research. To investigate the predictors of EF in newborns undergoing planned extubation, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis. A systematic literature search was conducted in PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane Library for studies published in English from the inception of each database to March 2023. The PRISMA guidelines were followed in all phases of this systematic review. The Risk of Bias Assessment for Nonrandomized Studies tool was used to assess methodological quality. Thirty-four studies were included, 10 of which were overall low risk of bias, 15 of moderate risk of bias, and 9 of high risk of bias. The studies reported 43 possible predictors in six broad categories (intrinsic factors; maternal factors; diseases and adverse conditions of the newborn; treatment of the newborn; characteristics before and after extubation; and clinical scores and composite indicators). Through a qualitative synthesis of 43 predictors and a quantitative meta-analysis of 19 factors, we identified five definite factors, eight possible factors, and 22 unclear factors related to EF. Definite factors included gestational age, sepsis, pre-extubation pH, pre-extubation FiO2, and respiratory severity score. Possible factors included age at extubation, anemia, inotropic use, mean airway pressure, pre-extubation PCO2, mechanical ventilation duration, Apgar score, and spontaneous breathing trial. With only a few high-quality studies currently available, well-designed and more extensive prospective studies investigating the predictors affecting EF are still needed. In the future, it will be important to explore the possibility of combining multiple predictors or assessment tools to enhance the accuracy of predicting extubation outcomes in clinical practice.

Pediatr Pulmonol 2023; 58:2846-2856. [PMID: 37431954 DOI: 10.1002/ppul.26598] [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: 04/29/2023] [Revised: 06/06/2023] [Accepted: 07/03/2023] [Indexed: 07/12/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To systematically review and meta-analyze the diagnostic accuracy of lung ultrasound score (LUS) in predicting extubation failure in neonates. STUDY DESIGN MEDLINE, COCHRANE, EMBASE, CINAHL, and clinicaltrials.gov were searched up to 30 November 2022, for studies evaluating the diagnostic accuracy of LUS in predicting extubation outcome in mechanically ventilated neonates. METHODOLOGY Two investigators independently assessed study eligibility, extracted data, and assessed study quality using the Quality Assessment for Studies of Diagnostic Accuracy 2 tool. We conducted a meta-analysis of pooled diagnostic accuracy data using random-effect models. Data were reported according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. We calculated pooled sensitivity and specificity, pooled diagnostic odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals (CI), and area under the curve (AUC). RESULTS Eight observational studies involving 564 neonates were included, and the risk of bias was low in seven studies. The pooled sensitivity and specificity for LUS in predicting extubation failure in neonates were 0.82 (95% CI: 0.75-0.88) and 0.83 (95% CI: 0.78-0.86), respectively. The pooled diagnostic odds ratio was 21.24 (95% CI: 10.45-43.19), and the AUC for LUS predicting extubation failure was 0.87 (95% CI: 0.80-0.95). Heterogeneity among included studies was low, both graphically and by statistical criteria (I2 = 7.35%, p = 0.37). CONCLUSIONS The predictive value of LUS in neonatal extubation failure may hold promise. However, given the current level of evidence and the methodological heterogeneity observed, there is a clear need for large-scale, well-designed prospective studies that establish standardized protocols for lung ultrasound performance and scoring. REGISTRATION The protocol was registered in OSF (https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/ZXQUT).

Abstract
In the age of surfactant and antenatal steroids, neonatal care has improved outcomes of preterm infants dramatically. Since the early 2000's neonatologists have strived to decrease bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) by decreasing ventilator-associated lung injury and utilizing many novel modes of non-invasive respiratory support. After the initial success with nasal continuous positive airway pressure, it was established that discontinuing invasive ventilation early in favor of non-invasive respiratory support is the most effective way to reduce the incidence of BPD. In this review, we discuss the management of the preterm lung from the time of delivery, through the phases of respiratory distress syndrome (early BPD) and then evolving BPD. The goal remains to optimize respiratory support of the preterm lung while minimizing ventilator-associated lung injury and oxygen toxicity. A multidisciplinary approach involving the medical team and family is quintessential in reaching this goal and involves adequate respiratory support, optimizing nutrition and fluid balance as well as preventing infections.
