Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo study the risk factors for the failure of the InSure method in very preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS).
METHODSSeventy-one very preterm infants with RDS treated with InSure method were enrolled. These infants were categorized into two groups: InSure success (42 cases) and InSure failure (29 cases). The differences in basic information were compared between the two groups, and logistic regression analysis was used to identify the risk factors for InSure failure.
RESULTSThe failure rate of the InSure method was 41%. The failure group were much lower in the birth weight, the antenatal steroids utilization rate and the vaginal delivery rate than the success group (P<0.05). The incidence of patent ductus arteriosus in the failure group was significantly higher than in the success group (P<0.05). PaO2, PaO2/FiO2 and PaO2/PAO2 in the failure group were significantly lower than in the success group (P<0.05). PaCO2 in the failure group was much higher than in the success group (P<0.05). Further logistic regression analysis showed that birth weight <1 150 g (OR=22.240 95%CI=2.124-232.901), PaCO2>54 mm Hg(OR=9.360, 95%CI=1.958-44.741, and PaO2/FiO2 <195 (OR=6.570, 95%CI=1.027-42.003), were the independmend risk factors for InSure failure. Furthermore, the duration of oxygen therapy, the total time of hospitalization and the incidence of BPD in the failure group were much longer and higher than in the success group (P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONSLow birth weight, elevated PaCO2 and low PaO2/PiO2 ratio are the risk factors for the failure of the InSure method in very preterm infants.
