Sažetak
Aim: This study aimed to determine how delivery room resuscitation efforts influence admission temperatures in premature infants born before 32 weeks gestation.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed a cohort of premature infants born before 32 weeks gestation from January 2014 until December 2016. We compared the impact of resuscitation efforts performed in the delivery room on the admission temperature. Hypothermia was defined as a core temperature of less than 36.5°C on admission. The primary outcome was admission temperature in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. Secondary outcomes were Apgar scores in the first and fifth minute, pH on admission, respiratory distress syndrome requiring surfactant, persistent ductus arteriosus, necrotizing enterocolitis, late onset sepsis, kidney failure, intraventricular hemorrhage and death before hospital discharge. Exclusion criteria were inevitably lethal congenital malformations.
Results: We studied 147 infants born < 32 weeks gestation. In the delivery room, 66 (44.8%) of infants were given standard thermal care, 20 (13.6%) received standard care and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), 49 (33.3%) received standard care and IPPV, whereas 12 (8.1%) of infants received standard care and extensive resuscitation efforts (intubation and/or chest compressions and/or epinephrine). Patients receiving standard care and intermittent positive-pressure ventilation (IPPV) had significantly lower admission temperatures than those given standard care only (35.7°C vs. 36.2 °C, p < 0.02). No correlation was found in infants receiving CPAP or extensive resuscitation efforts compared to those receiving standard thermal care only.
Conclusion: In our study, admission hypothermia was associated with IPPV in the delivery room. Application of CPAP or extensive resuscitation efforts in the delivery room did not influence admission temperatures.
