Abstract

AbstractAimIn extremely low birth weight infants, fluid overload has been associated with bronchopulmonary dysplasia and death. Excessive weight loss may increase the risk of meconium obstruction and intestinal perforation. As these infants display oliguria followed by polyuria, we embarked on a diuresis‐led volume replacement strategy as of January 2020.MethodsThis single‐centre analysis presents data of infants <1000 g birth weight surviving for more than 3 days admitted 2017–2019 (n = 217, daily volume increase) versus 2020–2022 (n = 2022, diuresis‐led volume replacement).ResultsThe second cohort had lower gestational age (median [interquartile range]: 253/7 [243/7–264/7] vs. 263/7 [251/7–282/7] weeks), less antenatal steroids (58% vs. 69%), more indomethacin (66% vs. 47%) and higher initial diuresis (5.6 [4.9–6.8] vs. 4.8 [4.2–5.5] mL/kg/h) but did not differ by relative weight loss at Day 7 of life. Employing binary logistic regression with gestational age, antenatal steroids and indomethacin as covariates, the cohorts did not differ by rates of patent ductus arteriosus, abdominal surgery or severe retinopathy of prematurity, while there were significant declines in sepsis (from 32% to 19%), bronchopulmonary dysplasia (from 26% to 23%) and mortality (from 13% to 7%).ConclusionDiuresis‐led volume replacement appears to be safe and maybe beneficial.
