Importance Since 2004-2007, national guidelines and recommendations have been developed for the management of extremely preterm births in Sweden. If how more uniform has affected infant survival is unknown. Objective To compare infants born during 2004-2007 with 2014-2016. Design, Setting Participants All at 22-26 weeks’ gestational age (n = 2205) between April 1, 2004, March 31, 2007, January 2014, December 2016, Sweden were studied. Prospective data collection was used 2004-2007. Data...
(Abstracted from JAMA 2019;321(12):1188–1199) The long-term health outcomes for preterm infants have improved over time, but born at extreme gestational ages continue to present issues of optimal antenatal and postnatal management, resource allocation costs, quality care, outcomes. To better understand variations time trends management extremely birth, study international populations is needed.
Abstract Aim We evaluated the increased centralisation of extremely preterm (EPT) births in Sweden relation to changes mortality and morbidity. Methods Population‐based data covering Swedish live from 22 + 0 26 6 weeks gestation during 2004–2007 2014–2016 were analysed for associations between time‐period, birth within (inborn) or outside (outborn) regional centres, outcomes. Results Among 1626 liveborn infants, 703 born 923 2014–2016. Birth (vs. within) centres was associated with a higher...
Objective To investigate the relationship between fraction of fetal haemoglobin (HbF(%)) and oxygen requirement as determined by inspired (FiO 2 ) alveolar–arterial gradient (A–a gradient). Increased alveolar exposure to may explain association decreased HbF(%) development bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). Design Longitudinal, retrospective, observational study. Setting Tertiary-level neonatal intensive care unit, referral centre for southern Sweden. Patients Four hundred forty very preterm...
To evaluate if increased survival and new ventilation strategies were accompanied by a changed incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in Sweden over decade.
Place of Birth Extremely Preterm Infants in SwedenMany studies on outcomes after extremely preterm birth have been restricted to infants born alive or admitted for neonatal care regional centers. 1,2Less is known about births outside such centers.This an important gap knowledge because some hospitals may not optimal capacity manage delivery and immediate life support infants.
( JAMA . 2019;321(12):1188–1199) Since 2004-2007, Sweden has created new recommendations, regulations and laws concerning extremely preterm births. In 2008, it became mandatory to register all stillbirths at 22 27 weeks’ gestational age record statistics for The withholding or withdrawal of advanced life support was the subject issued in 2011. 2016, national guidelines perinatal management were published included recommendations on resuscitation infants delivered between 24 weeks gestation,...
<b>Background:</b> Survival in infants born at the borderline of viability has increased while new ventilation strategies have emerged. Aim: To assess how and survival lower gestational ages (GA) affected incidence bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) Sweden over a decade. <b>Methods:</b> National register data live-born GA 22-26 weeks were compared for survival, BPD, severe BPD or death 2004-2007 (n=702) 2014-2016 (n=885). Ventilation interventions analyzed. <b>Results:</b> Median days on...
