Objective To study the oxygenation of the pulmonary surfactant replacement therapy for acute lung injury (ALI) and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in neonates.Methods Ninetyeight eligible neonates with ALI and ARDS were divided into two groups,treatment group (n =30) and control group(n =68).Thirty infants in treatment group were injected with pulmonary surfactant 70 ～ 100 mg/kg via tracheal intubation.The rest of the treatment measures were same in treatment and control group.Results There were no differences between the two groups in gender,gestational age,birth weight and ALI/ARDS.After the pulmonary surfactant replacement therapy for ALl and ARDS,the PaO2/FiO2 and ventilator efficiency index were higher in treatment group than that in control group at 6 h,12 h,24 h,48 h;the oxygenation index and respiratory index were shorter in treatment group than that in control group at the same time.The differences at all time points were statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).The treatment group also had a significantly shorter duration of assisted ventilation[(66 ± 13) h vs (80 ± 18) h,(82 ±26) h vs (101 ±36) h] and oxygen treatment time [(86±13) h vs (104± 16) h,(103 ±25) h vs (125 ±29) h] (P ＜0.05).Conclusion The application of the pulmonary surfactant replacement treatment in neonates with ALI and ARDS could improve rapidly in dynamic compliance and oxygenation,decrease duration of assisted ventilation and supplemental oxygen administration,thus yield better prognosis.

Objective To study the effect of early pulmonary surfactant (PS) treatment on oxygenation in neonates with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Methods Clinical data of neonates with ARDS were retrospectively analyzed. All neonates with ARDS were divided into control group and treatment group. Neonates in treatment group were given PS at a dose of 70-100 mg/kg through the endotracheal tube. Results Among 64 neonates with ARDS, 18 neonates in treatment group were treated with PS, while other interventions were same with 46 neonates in control group. The PaO2/FiO2 and ventilation efifciency index were statistically higher in treatment group than those in control group at 6 h, 12 h, 24 h and 48 h (P<0.05). The oxygenation index and respiratory index were statistically lower in treatment group than those in control group at the same time points (P<0.05). Compared with control group, the treatment group also had a signiifcantly shorter duration of assisted ventilation and oxygen treatment (P<0.05). Conclusions Early treatment with PS in neonates with ARDS could improve the pulmonary compliance and oxygenation, and reduce the duration of assisted ventilation and oxygen treatment, and thus yield better prognosis.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the preterm infants after premature rupture of the membranes(PROM)brain injury and some cellular factors in the umbilical cord blood and amniotic fluid,and ana-lyze the biological markers with great predictive value,and provide a theoretical basis for early monitoring of brain injury in premature infants. Methods One hundred and thirty - nine singleton infants with PROM,their gestation less than 34 weeks,were evaluated. The umbilical cord blood and amniotic fluid of cytokines,including interleukin - 1β(IL - 1β),IL - 4,IL - 6,IL - 8,IL - 10,IL - 17A,tumor necrosis factor alpha(TNF - α),granulocyte colony - stimu-lating factor(G - CSF),monocyte chemotactic protein - 1(MCP - 1),S100B protein and soluble intercellular adhe-sion molecule - 1(sICAM - 1)levels were measured with Luminex liquid chip. All the premature infants underwent brain imaging for the diagnosis of brain damage. All cases were divided into brain injury group and non - brain injury group based on brain imaging examination. Results The concentration of IL - 10 in cord blood was significantly lower in the brain injury group than that in the non - brain injury group,and the difference was statistically significant(P ﹤0. 05). The levels of IL - 1β,IL - 6,IL - 8,TNF - α,G - CSF,MCP - 1,S100B and sICAM - 1 in the brain injury group were significantly higher than those of non - brain injury group,and the differences were statistically significant (all P ﹤ 0. 05). The levels of IL - 1β,IL - 6,IL - 8,TNF - α,G - CSF,MCP - 1 and sICAM - 1 in the amniotic fluid were significantly higher than those of non - brain injury group,and the differences were statistically significant(all P ﹤ 0. 05),but amniotic fluid S100B protein level was similar between 2 groups,which had no statistical significance (P ﹥ 0. 05). To predict the value of brain damage in premature infants,the highest sensitivity in cord blood was S100B protein,the highest specificity was IL - 6. The highest sensitivity in amniotic fluid was IL - 1β,and the highest specificity was IL - 8. The levels of IL - 4 and IL - 17A in the umbilical cord blood and amniotic fluid,IL - 10 in amniotic fluid were very low,and had no predictive value for brain damage. Conclusions Many biological markers in umbilical cord blood and amniotic fluid provide information about the risk of brain injury in premature infants. The highest sensitivity in cord blood was S100B protein,the highest specificity was IL - 6. The highest sensitivity in amniotic fluid was IL - 1β,the highest specificity was IL - 8. Changes in inflammation - related biomarkers suggest that brain damage in the preterm infants might be associated with intrauterine inflammation.

Objective To investigate the respiratory mechanics and treatment outcomes of different types of mechanical ventilation for patients with neonatal acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS):the high frequency oscillation ventilation + pulmonary surfactant (HFOV+PS),conventional mechanical ventilation + pulmonary surfactant(CMV+PS),conventional mechanical ventilation(CMV). Methods Seventy-five cases with neonatal ARDS,25 cases in the HFOV+PS group,30 cases in the CMV+PS group,20 cases in the CMV group. Patients in the former two groups received 70 mg/kg PS at a time. PaO2,PaCO2,PaO2/FiO2,oxygenation index(OI)and respiratory index(RI)were detected at 0 h,12 h,24 h,48 h,72 h post-mechanical ventilation. Results At 12, 24,and 48 hours post-mechanical ventilation,patients in the HFOV+PS group had a significantly higher level of PaO2 and a significantly lower level of PaCO2 than those of patients in the CMV+PS group and the CMV group(P<0.05). At 12,24,48,and 72 hours post-mechanical ventilation,patients in the HFOV+PS group had a significantly higher level of PaO2/FiO2 and significantly lower level of OI and RI than those of patients in the CMV+PS group and the CMV group (P < 0.05,respectively). Patients in the HFOV+PS group also had significantly shorter durations of mechanical ventilation and oxygen usage than those of patients in the CMV+PS group and the CMV group (P < 0.05). No significant differences were observed in Gas leak,the incidence of intracerebral haemorrhage and cure rate among the three groups. Conclusions Application of HFOV with PS therapy for patients with neonatal ARDS can timely improve the oxygenation,shorten the time of mechanical ventilation and the usage of oxygen,without increasing complications.
