Abstract
Objective To explore the relationship between different modes of respiratory support and feeding intolerance (FI) in preterm infants over the course of their hospitalization and to provide recommendations for the management of enteral feeding in preterm infants requiring respiratory support. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed with the preterm infants admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), West China Second University Hospital, Sichuan University between June 2015 and November 2018. The modes of respiratory support were used as independent variables and FI was used as the outcome indicator. The preterm infants were grouped according to the specific modes of respiratory support they were on over the course of their hospitalization and the relationship between each mode of respiratory support and FI was compared. Results A total of 272 preterm infants were enrolled in the study. After adjusting for confounding factors, findings from logistics regression suggested that, compared with normobaric oxygen, high flow nasal cannula (HFNC) might reduce the incidence of FI (odds ratio [OR]=0.53, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.06-4.77), while other modes of respiratory support might increase the incidence of FI. Compared with nasal continuous positive airway pressure (NCPAP), bilevel positive airway pressure (BIPAP) and invasive ventilation might increase the incidence of FI, with the adjusted OR being 1.31 and 1.69, and 95% CI being 0.67-2.55 and 0.65-4.41, respectively. The incidence of FI in BIPAP and invasive ventilation was similar (adjusted OR=1.00, 95% CI: 0.41-2.42). However, the P-values of the above results were all greater than 0.05. Conclusion HFNC has the lowest incidence of FI in the respiratory support modes examined in this study. Attention should be paid to enteral feeding management when using NCPAP, BIPAP, and invasive ventilation to avoid the occurrence of FI. Given the limited sample size, further research is warranted to confirm the conclusion.

Abstract
AIM Feeding a very low birthweight (VLBW, <1500 g) infant is challenging. Our aims were to study how prescribed enteral feeding is implemented in VLBW infants and to identify factors associating with slow enteral feeding progression. METHODS Our retrospective cohort included 516 VLBW infants born before 32 weeks of gestation during 2005-2013 and admitted to Children's Hospital, Helsinki, Finland, for at least the two first weeks of life. Nutritional data were collected from birth until the age of 14-28 days, depending on the length of stay. RESULTS We found that enteral feeding progressed slower than recommended and implementation differed from the prescriptions, especially during the parenteral nutrition phase (milk intake 10-20 mL/kg/day): 71% [40-100], median [IQR], of the prescribed enteral milk was administered. The full prescribed amount was less likely administered if a higher volume of gastric residual was aspirated or if the infant did not pass stool during the same day. Longer opiate use, patent ductus arteriosus, respiratory distress syndrome and slower passage of the first meconium associated with slower enteral feeding progression. CONCLUSION Enteral feeding of a VLBW infant is often not administered as prescribed, which possibly plays a significant role in the slow progression of enteral feeding.

Nutrients 2022; 14:nu14051032. [PMID: 35268013 PMCID: PMC8912445 DOI: 10.3390/nu14051032] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2021] [Revised: 02/25/2022] [Accepted: 02/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Establishing the different feeding trajectories based on daily enteral feeding data in preterm infants at different gestational ages (GAs), may help to identify the risks and extrauterine growth restriction (EUGR) outcomes associated with the adverse feeding pattern. In a single center, we retrospectively included 625 infants born at 23-30 weeks of gestation who survived to term-equivalent age (TEA) from 2009 to 2020. The infants were designated into three GA groups: 23-26, 27-28, and 29-30 weeks. The daily enteral feeding amounts in the first 56 postnatal days were analyzed to determine the feeding trajectories. The primary outcomes were EUGR in body weight and head circumference calculated, respectively, by the changes between birth and TEA. Clustering analysis identified two feeding trajectories, namely the improving and adverse patterns in each GA group. The adverse feeding pattern that occurred in 49%, 20%, and 17% of GA 23-26, 27-28, and 29-30 weeks, respectively, was differentiated from the improving feeding pattern as early as day 7 in infants at GA 23-26 and 27-28 weeks, in contrast to day 21 in infants at GA 29-30 weeks. The adverse feeding patterns were associated with sepsis, respiratory, and gastrointestinal morbidities at GA 23-26 weeks; sepsis, hemodynamic and gastrointestinal morbidities at GA 27-28 weeks; and preeclampsia, respiratory, and gastrointestinal morbidities at GA 29-30 weeks. Using the improving feeding group as a reference, the adverse feeding group showed significantly higher adjusted odds ratios of EUGR in body weight and head circumference in infants at GA 23-26 and 27-28 weeks. Identifying the early-life adverse feeding trajectories may help recognize the related EUGR outcomes of preterm infants in a GA-related manner.

Abstract
Objective Prefeed gastric residuals (GRs) monitoring has been correlated with an increased time to reach full feeds and longer parenteral nutrition without beneficial effect on necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) occurrence. We aimed to assess effects of a new local protocol to provide for the selective evaluation of GRs excluding their routine monitoring. Methods We carried out a retrospective study based on a “before and after” design in a cohort of infants born at 23+0–31+6 weeks of gestation. The primary outcome was the age at full enteral feeding (150 mL/kg/d). Secondary outcomes included age at regaining of birth weight, and evaluation of Z-scores of weight, length, and head circumference at discharge. Results We studied 49 infants in the selective GR group and 59 in the routine GR group. Age at full (150 mL/kg) enteral feeding (17.8 ± 10.1 vs. 22.9 ± 10.5 days, P = 0.017) and regaining of birth weight (11.1 ± 3.0 vs. 12.5 ± 3.5 days, P = 0.039) were lower while the Z-scores of weight at discharge (-1.10 ± 0.83 vs. -1.60 ± 1.45, P = 0.040) were higher in infants in the selective GR group in comparison with infants in the routine GR group. Conclusions Selective monitoring of GRs decreased age at full enteral feeding and at regaining of birth weight and induced better Z-scores of weight at discharge in comparison with routine GR monitoring in a cohort of extremely preterm infants without increasing the incidence of NEC. Omitting prefeed GRs monitoring in clinical practice seems reasonable. Supplementary Information The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1186/s13052-022-01208-7.

Evaluation of the neonatal sequential organ failure assessment and mortality risk in neonates with respiratory distress syndrome: A retrospective cohort study. Front Pediatr 2022; 10:911444.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) is one of the leading causes of neonatal death in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Previous studies have suggested that the development of neonatal RDS may be associated with inflammation and lead to organ dysfunction. The neonatal sequential organ failure assessment (nSOFA) scoring system is an operational definition of organ dysfunction, but whether it can be used to predict mortality in neonates RDS is unknown. The aim of this study was to clarify the performance of the nSOFA score in predicting mortality in patients with neonatal RDS, with the aim of broadening the clinical application of the nSOFA score. METHODS Neonates with RDS were identified from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC)-III database. Cox proportional hazards model were used to assess the association between nSOFA score and mortality. Propensity score matched analysis were used to assess the robustness of the analytical results. RESULTS In this study of 1,281 patients with RDS of which 57.2% were male, death occurred in 40 cases (3.1%). Patients with high nSOFA scores had a higher mortality rate of 10.7% compared with low nSOFA scores at 0.3%. After adjusting for confounding, multivariate Cox proportional risk analysis showed that an increase in nSOFA score was significantly associated with increased mortality in patients with RDS [adjusted Hazards Ratio (aHR): 1.48, 95% Confidence Interval (CI): 1.32-1.67; p < 0.001]. Similarly, the High nSOFA group was significantly associated with higher mortality in RDS patients (aHR: 19.35, 95% CI: 4.41-84.95; p < 0.001) compared with the low nSOFA group. CONCLUSION The nSOFA score was positively associated with the risk of mortality in cases of neonatal RDS in the NICU, where its use may help clinicians to quickly and accurately identify high risk neonates and implement more aggressive intervention.

Abstract
This study reviews the mechanisms of action and physiologic effects of nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) and high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) in preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome, discusses the main characteristics of available devices and patients' interfaces, reports on risk of failure and possible adverse effects, and summarizes clinical evidence regarding effectiveness for preventing mechanical ventilation as primary respiratory support or after extubation in the neonatal intensive care unit. nCPAP is preferred to HFNC as primary mode of noninvasive respiratory support in preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome, whereas HFNC is an effective alternative to nCPAP after extubation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We compared protocolized weaning versus nonprotocolized weaning practice from nasal high flow therapy (nHFT) in preterm infants. STUDY DESIGN A before-and- after observational study. METHODS The study was conducted in three phases; Phase 1: infants were weaned according to usual practice for 6 months (nonprotocolized), Phase 2: education and training physicians and nursing staff for the protocol for 1 month, and Phase 3: protocol of weaning from nHFT was applied for the following 6 months with specified criteria for readiness to wean, weaning failure and weaning technique. The primary outcome was failure to wean off nHFT. RESULTS One hundred and four preterm infants were enrolled, 51 preterm infants in the protocol group and 53 in the nonprotocol group. The groups were similar in demographic and clinical characteristics at baseline. There were significantly lower number of patients who failed weaning from nHFT in the protocol group compared to nonprotocol group (4 [7.8%] versus 15 [28.3%], p = .007]. There was shorter time to reach full enteral feeding in the protocol group compared with nonprotocol group (p = .03). There were no significant differences between groups regarding other outcomes including total durations of respiratory support, nHFT and oxygen therapy, duration of nHFT after decision of weaning, and neonatal mortality and morbidity. CONCLUSION Implementation of a standardized protocol for weaning from nHFT in preterm infants reduced weaning failure and reduced the time to full feeds. Larger trials are recommended to detect the impact of weaning protocols on other outcomes.

Abstract
NEW FINDINGS What is the topic of this review? We review the influence of prematurity on the cardiorespiratory system and examine the common sequel of alterations in oxygen tension, and immune activation in preterm infants. What advances does it highlight? The review highlights neonatal animal models of intermittent hypoxia, hyperoxia and infection that contribute to our understanding of the effect of stress on neurodevelopment and cardiorespiratory homeostasis. We also focus on some of the important physiological pathways that have a modulatory role on the cardiorespiratory system in early life. ABSTRACT Preterm birth is one of the leading causes of neonatal mortality. Babies that survive early-life stress associated with immaturity have significant prevailing short- and long-term morbidities. Oxygen dysregulation in the first few days and weeks after birth is a primary concern as the cardiorespiratory system slowly adjusts to extrauterine life. Infants exposed to rapid alterations in oxygen tension, including exposures to hypoxia and hyperoxia, have altered redox balance and active immune signalling, leading to altered stress responses that impinge on neurodevelopment and cardiorespiratory homeostasis. In this review, we explore the clinical challenges posed by preterm birth, followed by an examination of the literature on animal models of oxygen dysregulation and immune activation in the context of early-life stress.

Abstract
Healthy microbiota is a critical mediator in maintaining health and it is supposed that dysbiosis could have a role in the pathogenesis of a number of diseases. Evidence supports the hypothesis that maternal dysbiosis could act as a trigger for preterm birth; aberrant colonization of preterm infant gut might have a role in feeding intolerance and pathogenesis of necrotizing enterocolitis. Despite several clinical trials and meta-analyses, it is still not clear if modulation of maternal and neonatal microbiota with probiotic supplementation decreases the risk of preterm birth and its complications.
