Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the risk factors of pulmonary hemorrhage in very low and extremely low birth weight, and to provide reference for the treatment of pulmonary hemorrhage.Methods:The clinical data of very low and extremely low birth weight infants hospitalized in Qingdao Women and Children′s Hospital NICU from January 2017 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.Eighty-six infants who were diagnosed with pulmonary hemorrhage were selected as the pulmonary hemorrhage group, and two hundred and two infants without pulmonary hemorrhage were selected as the control group.The differences of the survival rates, complications and parameters of platelet between the two groups were compared, and the risk factors of pulmonary hemorrhage by multivariate Logistic regression were analyzed.Results:The survival rate of pulmonary hemorrhage group and control group were 65.1%(56/86) and 90.1%(182/202), respectively.The survival rate of control group was significantly higher than that in the pulmonary hemorrhage group( χ2=26.241, P<0.01). There was no significant difference in fluid intake between the two groups within three days after birth( t=0.936, 1.811, 1.840, P=0.350, 0.073, 0.069). The multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus( OR=2.304, 95% CI: 0.213~1.564, P=0.010), disseminated intravascular coagulation( OR=3.143, 95% CI: 0.061~2.521, P=0.028), thrombocytopenia( OR=0.991, 95% CI: -0.015~-0.005, P=0.001) and low mean platelet volume( OR=0.337, 95% CI: -1.657~-0.739, P=0.001) were the risk factors of pulmonary hemorrhage. Conclusion:Hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus, disseminated intravascular coagulation, thrombocytopenia and low mean platelet volume were associated with increased risks for pulmonary hemorrhage in very low and extremely low birth weight.These risk factors should be actively monitored and treated, which is helpful to early identify and prevent pulmonary hemorrhage.
