- Randomized controlled trial comparing nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation and nasal continuous positive airway pressure in premature infants after tracheal extubation(2016) KOMATSU, Daniela Franco Rizzo; DINIZ, Edna Maria De Albuquerque; FERRARO, Alexandre Archanjo; CECCON, Maria Esther Jurvest Rivero; VAZ, Flavio Adolfo CostaObjective: To analyze the frequency of extubation failure in premature infants using conventional mechanical ventilation (MV) after extubation in groups subjected to nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (nIPPV) and continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP). Method: Seventy-two premature infants with respiratory failure were studied, with a gestational age (GA) <= 36 weeks and birth weight (BW) > 750 g, who required tracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation. The study was controlled and randomized in order to ensure that the members of the groups used in the research were chosen at random. Randomization was performed at the time of extubation using sealed envelopes. Extubation failure was defined as the need for re-intubation and mechanical ventilation during the first 72 hours after extubation. Results: Among the 36 premature infants randomized to nIPPV, six (16.6%) presented extubation failure in comparison to 11 (30.5%) of the 36 premature infants randomized to nCPAP. There was no statistical difference between the two study groups regarding BW, GA, classification of the premature infant, and MV time. The main cause of extubation failure was the occurrence of apnea. Gastrointestinal and neurological complications did not occur in the premature infants participating in the study. Conclusion: We found that, despite the extubation failure of the group of premature infants submitted to nIPPV being numerically smaller than in premature infants submitted to nCPAP, there was no statistically significant difference between the two modes of ventilatory support after extubation.
- Desempenho linguístico de prematuros de 2 anos, considerando idade cronológica e idade corrigida(2016) MONTEIRO-LUPERI, Telma Iacovino; BEFI-LOPES, Debora Maria; DINIZ, Edna Maria Albuquerque; KREBS, Vera Lucia; CARVALHO, Werther Brunow deABSTRACT Introduction Preterm birth causes problems that are not restricted to perinatal mortality. Some premature, even in the absence of brain damage, have negative effects on various aspects of development, such as language difficulties. Objective This study aimed to verify the linguistic performance of preterm children at 2 years old, considering the chronological age and corrected age. Methods The study included 23 preterm children and applied the Test of Early Language Development- TELD-3 to assess the language skills. Results The premature children showed the linguistic performance alterations in Teld-3 in 39.13% of cases. They were also analyzed considering the delay to the chronological and corrected ages and there was no difference in performance for both receptive subtests (p = 0.250) and significant (p = 1.000). Conclusion The group of premature children at 2 years is a population at risk for language disorders that cannot be compensated with age correction.
- Death or survival with major morbidity in VLBW infants born at Brazilian neonatal research network centers(2016) GUINSBURG, Ruth; ALMEIDA, Maria Fernanda Branco de; CASTRO, Junia Sampel de; SILVEIRA, Rita C.; CALDAS, Jamil Pedro de Siqueira; FIORI, Humberto Holmer; VALE, Marynea Silva do; ABDALLAH, Vania Olivetti Steffen; CARDOSO, Laura Emilia Monteiro Bigelli; ALVES FILHO, Navantino; MOREIRA, Maria Elisabeth; ACQUESTA, Ana Lucia; FERRARI, Ligia S. Lopes; BENTLIN, Maria Regina; VENZON, Paulyne Stadler; FERRI, Walusa Assad Goncalves; MENESES, Jucille do Amaral; DINIZ, Edna Maria De Albuquerque; ZANARDI, Dulce Maria Toledo; SANTOS, Cristina Nunes Dos; DUARTE, Jose Luiz Bandeira; REGO, Maria Albertina SantiagoObjective: To analyze unfavorable outcomes at hospital discharge of preterm infants born at Brazilian public university centers.Methods: Prospective cohort of 2646 inborn infants with gestational age 23-33 weeks and birth weight 400-1499g, without malformations, born at 20 centers in 2012-2013. Unfavorable outcome was defined as in-hospital death or survival at hospital discharge with 1 major morbidities: bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) at 36 corrected weeks, intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) grades 3-4, periventricular leukomalacia (PVL) or surgically treated retinopathy of prematurity (ROP).Results: Among 2646 infants, 1390 (53%) either died or survived with major morbidities: 793 (30%) died; 497 (19%) had BPD; 358 (13%) had IVH 3-4 or PVL; and 84 (3%) had ROP. Logistic regression adjusted by center showed association of unfavorable outcome with: antenatal steroids (OR 0.70; 95%CI 0.55-0.88), C-section (0.72; 0.58-0.90), gestational age <30 (4.00; 3.16-5.07), being male (1.44; 1.19-1.75), small for gestational age (2.19; 1.72-2.78), 5th-min Apgar <7 (3.89; 2.88-5.26), temperature at NICU admission <36.0 degrees C (1.42; 1.15-1.76), respiratory distress syndrome (3.87; 2.99-5.01), proven late sepsis (1.33; 1.05-1.69), necrotizing enterocolitis (3.10; 2.09-4.60) and patent ductus arteriosus (1.69; 1.37-2.09).Conclusions: More than half of the VLBW infants born at public university level 3 Brazilian hospitals either die or survive with major morbidities.
- Thyroid abnormalities in term infants with fungal sepsis(2016) SILVA, Maria Helena Baptista Nunes Da; ARAUJO, Maria Cristina Korbage De; DINIZ, Edna Maria De Albuquerque; CECCON, Maria Esther Jurfest Rivero; CARVALHO, Werther Brunow DeObjective: To describe thyroid alterations in term newborns (TNB) with fungal sepsis during NICU hospitalization. Method: The study included six TNB that during the clinical and laboratory manifestations of sepsis with positive cultures for fungus showed changes in thyroid hormones, called low T3 syndrome and low T3-T4 syndrome. TNB that could present hormonal changes caused by disease as those born to mothers with thyroid disease, or who had perinatal asphyxia and major surgeries were excluded. Results: Of six TNB with fungal sepsis, five had positive culture for Candida albicans and one had positive culture for Candida tropicalis. Low T3 syndrome was observed in two TNB (50%), while T3-T4 syndrome was observed in other two (100%). The four children progressed to septic shock. Conclusion: Fungal sepsis is becoming more common among newborns admitted to NICU. Thyroid insufficiency could be a marker of disease severity with possible need for hormone supplementation.
