Background: Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a major complication affecting the survival rate and long-term outcomes of preterm infants. A large, prospective, multicenter cohort study was conducted to evaluate early nutritional support during the first week of life for preterm infants with a gestational age < 32 weeks and to verify nutritional risk factors related to BPD development.
Methods: A prospective multicenter cohort study of very preterm infants was conducted in 40 tertiary neonatal intensive care units across mainland China between January 1, 2020, and December 31, 2021.
Objective: This study aims to compare the clinical characteristics and 1-year outcomes of preterm infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) who were discharged on supplemental oxygen or room air.
Materials And Methods: The preterm infants (born <32 weeks' gestation, birth weight ≤1,250 g) diagnosed with BPD and admitted between January 2020 and December 2020 were enrolled. The clinical data during hospitalization were collected through the hospital's electronic record system.
Objectives: To study the value of bedside echocardiography in predicting persistent patency of the ductus arteriosus during the early postnatal period in very low birth weight (VLBW) infants.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed for 51 VLBW infants who were admitted from March 2020 to June 2021, with an age of ≤3 days and a length of hospital stay of ≥14 days. According to the diameter of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) on days 14 and 28 after birth, the infants were divided into three groups: large PDA group (PDA diameter ≥2 mm), small PDA group (PDA diameter <2 mm), and PDA closure group (PDA diameter =0 mm).
