Early continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and surfactant replacement are effective treatments for neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). CPAP is the first line in preterm infants needing support, with case of failure (CPAP-F).To analyze incidence factors associated CPAP-F RDS.Single-center retrospective database analysis (2004-2017) inborn infants, gestational age (GA) 24 + 0/7-31 6/7 weeks, not intubated on admission to intensive care unit, managed CPAP. was defined as...
ABSTRACT Objectives: In case of hypertriglyceridemia (HiTG) during parenteral nutrition (PN), the 2018 European Society Paediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition guidelines recommend an intravenous (IV) lipid titration, but its consequences in small preterm infants are largely unknown. We compared macronutrient energy intakes, growth, diseases associated with prematurity, neurodevelopment on PN who developed (cases) or did not develop HiTG (controls, CNTR). Methods:...
Clinical trials have demonstrated that heparan sulfate (HS) could be used as a therapeutic agent for the treatment of inflammatory diseases. Its anti-inflammatory effect makes it suitable development biomimetic innovative strategies aiming at modulating stem cells behavior toward pro-regenerative phenotype in case injury or inflammation. Here, we propose collagen type I meshes fabricated by solvent casting and further crosslinked with HS (HS-Col) to create environment resembling...
Abstract Introduction The benefits of intravenous (IV) fish oil (FO), as a source n‐3 long‐chain polyunsaturated fatty acids, on lung growth in preterm infants, remain controversial. Aim To evaluate if IV FO improves small infants routine parenteral nutrition (PN). Materials and Methods We retrospectively reviewed prospectively collected data with birth weight <1250 g who received PN from birth. compared patients containing lipid emulsions conventional (CNTR). oxygen saturation (SpO 2 )...
