Abstract:
Objective:To observe the efficacy and safety of mechanical ventilation combined with different doses of sildenafil in the treatment of persistent pulmonary hypertension of newborn (PPHN).Methods:A total of 160 children with PPHN admitted to Dezhou Maternal and Child Health Hospital from January 2018 to December 2019 were selected and divided into group A, B, C and D by random stratification, with 40 cases in each group. All the children in the group were actively corrected for acidosis, provided with intravenous nutrition support, warmth, anti-infection and other measures, and adopted ventilator to assist mechanical ventilation. Group A, B, and C were given different doses of sildenafil 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 mg/(kg·time) respectively, while group D was not given sildenafil treatment, but only mechanical ventilation. Blood gas analysis indexes including partial arterial oxygenpressure (PaO 2), partial arterial carbon dioxide pressure (PaCO 2), saturationoxygen (SaO 2), and pulmonary artery pressure (SPAP), systemic blood pressure (SBP) of children were tested before the treatment and 72 h after the treatment. The treatment time, hospitalization time, hospitalization expenses and the incidence of adverse reactions of mechanical ventilation in 4 groups were recorded and compared. Results:The effective rate in the group A, B and C was higher than that in the group D: 80.0%(32/40), 85.0%(34/40), 87.5%(35/40) vs. 57.5%(23/40), the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Before treatment, the levels of blood gas analysis indexes in 4 groups had no significant differences ( P>0.05). After treatment, the level of PaO 2 in the group A, B and C was significantly higher than that in the group D ( P<0.05), the level of PaCO 2 in the group B and C was significantly lower than that in group D ( P<0.05), and the level of SaO 2 in the group B and C was significantly higher than that in the group D ( P<0.05). After treatment, the level of SPAP in group B and C was significantly lower than that in the group D: (28.56 ± 3.93), (27.14 ± 3.32) mmHg(1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa) vs. (33.57 ± 4.68) mmHg, P<0.05, and the level of SBP in 4 groups had no significant difference ( P>0.05). The hospitalization time and mechanical ventilation time in group A, B and C were significantly shorter than those in group D ( P<0.05). No drug-related adverse reactions, pulmonary hemorrhage, hypotension, arrhythmia, pneumothorax and other complications occurred during the treatment in the 4 groups. Conclusions:Mechanical ventilation combined with sildenafil can significantly reduce pulmonary artery pressure and improve pulmonary oxygenation in children with PPHN. In the range of 0.5 - 1.0 mg/kg, the efficacy is more obvious when increasing the dose of sildenafil.
