ABSTRACT
To determine hematocrit (HCT) and to identify independent risk factors for predicting bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in preterm infants with very low birth weight (VLBW) infants. This retrospective study included 296 premature infants with VLBW in the neonatal intensive care unit of the First Affiliated Hospital of the University of Science and Technology of China between January 2015 and December 2019. Maternal pregnant information and clinical information as well as hematological parameters of preterm babies were collected and compared. Then the maximum area under the curve of receiver operating characteristic curve was developed to estimate the predictive indicator in the blood. Finally, differential variables together with the predictive index were screened for multiple logistic regression analysis to determine independent prognostic factors for BPD. Infants were divided into a BPD group (134 cases) and a non-BPD group (162 cases). The area under the curve of HCT at postnatal 1 week was 0.737 with the sensitivity of 52.30 % and the specificity of 86.00%. Birth weight (BW) <1.12 kg, gestational age <28.4 weeks, newborn respiratory distress syndrome, mechanical ventilation ≥ 7 days, ventilation associated pneumonia, patent arterial duct, PaO2/FiO2 <300 mm Hg and HCT <0.455 at postnatal 1 week were risk factors for BPD of VLBW infants. HCT levels below 0.455 at 1 week after birth serve as a valuable indicator for the potential development of BPD.
