Abstract
AbstractTo determine the early factors associated with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) failure in moderate-to-late preterm infants (32 + 0/7 to 36 + 6/7 weeks’ gestation) from the NEOBS cohort study. The NEOBS study was a multi-center, prospective, observational study in 46 neonatal intensive care units in France, which included preterm and late preterm infants with early neonatal respiratory distress. This analysis included a subset of the NEOBS population who had respiratory distress and required ventilatory support with CPAP within the first 24 h of life. CPAP failure was defined as the need for tracheal intubation within 72 h of CPAP initiation. Maternal and neonatal clinical parameters in the delivery room and clinical data at 3 h of life were analyzed. CPAP failure occurred in 45/375 infants (12%), and compared with infants with CPAP success, they were mostly singletons (82.2% vs. 62.1%; p < 0.01), had a lower Apgar score at 10 min of life (9.1 ± 1.3 vs. 9.6 ± 0.8; p = 0.02), and required a higher fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2; 34.4 ± 15.9% vs. 22.8 ± 4.1%; p < 0.0001) and a higher FiO2*positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) (1.8 ± 0.9 vs. 1.1 ± 0.3; p < 0.0001) at 3 h. FiO2 value of 0.23 (R2 = 0.73) and FiO2*PEEP of 1.50 (R2 = 0.75) best predicted CPAP failure. The risk of respiratory distress and early CPAP failure decreased 0.7 times per 1-week increase in gestational age and increased 1.7 times with every one-point decrease in Apgar score at 10 min and 19 times with FiO2*PEEP > 1.50 (vs. ≤ 1.50) at 3 h (R2 of the overall model = 0.83). Conclusion: In moderate-to-late preterm infants, the combination of singleton pregnancy, lower Apgar score at 10 min, and FiO2*PEEP > 1.50 at 3 h can predict early CPAP failure with increased accuracy.
What is Known:
•Respiratory distress syndrome (RSD) represents an unmet medical need in moderate-to-late preterm births and is commonly treated with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) to reduce mortality and the need for additional ventilatory support.
• Optimal management of RSD is yet to be established, with several studies suggesting that identification of predictive factors for CPAP failure can aid in the prompt treatment of infants likely to experience this failure.
What is New:
•Secondary analysis of the observational NEOBS study indicated that oxygen requirements during CPAP therapy, especially the product of fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) and positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP), are important factors associated with early CPAP failure in moderate-to-late term preterm infants.
•The combination of a singleton pregnancy, low Apgar score at 10 minutes, and high FiO2*PEEP at 3 hours can predict early CPAP failure with increased accuracy, highlighting important areas for future research into the prevention of CPAP failure.
