RESUMO
This systematic review aimed to summarize the available data on the treatment of pulmonary contusions with exogenous surfactants, determine whether this treatment benefits patients with severe pulmonary contusions, and evaluate the optimal type of surfactant, method of administration, and drug concentration. Three databases (MEDline, Scopus, and Web of Science) were searched using the following keywords: pulmonary surfactant, surface-active agents, exogenous surfactant, pulmonary contusion, and lung contusion for articles published between 1945 and February 2023, with no language restrictions. Four reviewers independently rated the studies for inclusion, and the other four reviewers resolved conflicts. Of the 100 articles screened, six articles were included in the review. Owing to the limited number of papers on this topic, various types of studies were included (two clinical studies, two experiments, and two case reports). In all the studies, surfactant administration improved the selected ventilation parameters. The most frequently used type of surfactant was Curosurf® in the concentration of 25 mg/kg of ideal body weight. In most studies, the administration of a surfactant by bronchoscopy into the segmental bronchi was the preferable way of administration. In both clinical studies, patients who received surfactants required shorter ventilation times. The administration of exogenous surfactants improved ventilatory parameters and, thus, reduced the need for less aggressive artificial lung ventilation and ventilation days. The animal-derived surfactant Curosurf® seems to be the most suitable substance; however, the ideal concentration remains unclear. The ideal route of administration involves a bronchoscope in the segmental bronchi.

BACKGROUND: The role of prematurity and pulmonary inflammation in the pathogenesis of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is very well-defined. However, there is limited knowledge about whether the level of prematurity and surfactant therapy alter the pulmonary cytokines and endothelial growth factor (VEGF). METHODS: This study analyzed the VEGF and cytokines, including interleukin (IL)-1ß, IL-6, IL-8, and IL-10, and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) in the tracheal aspirate (TA) of preterm infants obtained before (within 2 h after birth) and 10-12 h after the administration of the first dose of surfactant. TA was collected from 40 infants of 35 or fewer weeks of gestation, including extremely (Group 1, n = 19), very (Group 2, n = 13), and moderate/late (Group 2, n = 8) preterm neonates. In addition to univariate analysis, controlled regression models estimated the association of perinatal factors with the tested parameters and their role in the development of BPD. RESULT: We recorded significantly lower post-partum levels of VEGF and higher IL-8, IL-1ß, and TNF-α in the TA of Group 1 infants than in Group 2 and 3. Compared to the infants in Group 2 and 3, the post-surfactant increases of pulmonary VEGF, IL-8, IL-10, and TNF-α were more significant in Group 1. All tested parameters in Group 1 and 2 infants, before and after surfactant administration, were comparable. BPD was recorded in nearly 60% of the extremely preterm survivors and was significantly predicted by increased IL-8 before, and elevated TNF-α level after surfactant administration. CONCLUSION: This study indicates the association of birth at extremely preterm gestation with reduction in pulmonary VEGF and exacerbation of pro-inflammatory cytokines followed by greater elevation post-surfactant administration levels of VEGF, IL-8, TNF-α, and IL-10 than in neonates born with gestational age of 28-35 weeks.

AIM: Meconium aspiration syndrome (MAS) is life-threatening respiratory failure of newborns which can be treated by exogenous surfactant. In response to meconium, increased levels of chemokine IL-8 (CXCL8) stimulate massive neutrophil infiltration of the lungs. Local accumulation and activation of neutrophils, on-going inflammation, lung edema, and oxidative damage contribute to inactivation of endogenous and therapeutically given surfactants. Therefore, we have hypothesized that addition of monoclonal anti-IL-8 antibody into exogenous surfactant can mitigate the neutrophil-induced local injury and the secondary surfactant inactivation and may finally result in improvement of respiratory functions. METHODS: New Zealand rabbits with intratracheal meconium-induced respiratory failure (meconium 25 mg/ml, 4 ml/kg) were divided into three groups: untreated (M), surfactant-treated (M + S), and treated with combination of surfactant and anti-IL-8 antibody (M + S + anti-IL-8). Surfactant therapy consisted of two lung lavages with diluted porcine surfactant Curosurf (10 ml/kg, 5 mg phospholipids (PL)/ml) followed by undiluted Curosurf (100 mg PL/kg) delivered by means of asymmetric high-frequency jet ventilation (f. 300/min, Ti 20%). In M + S + anti-IL-8 group, anti-IL-8 antibody (100 µg/kg) was added directly to Curosurf dose. Animals were oxygen-ventilated for additional 5 h, respiratory parameters were measured regularly. Subsequently, cell counts in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BAL), lung edema formation, oxidative damage, levels of interleukins (IL)-1ß and IL-6 in the lung homogenate were evaluated. RESULTS: Surfactant instillation significantly improved lung function. Addition of anti-IL-8 to surfactant further improved gas exchange and ventilation efficiency and had longer-lasting effect than surfactant-only therapy. Combined treatment showed the trend to reduce neutrophil count in BAL fluid, local oxidative damage, and levels of IL-1ß and IL-6 more effectively than surfactant-alone, however, these differences were not significant. CONCLUSION: Addition of anti-IL-8 antibody to surfactant could potentiate the efficacy of Curosurf on the gas exchange in experimental model of MAS.

Introduction: Hyaline membrane disease is an important cause of neonatal mortality. The objective of this research is to evaluate the efficacy of three different exogenous surfactants in premature infants. Patients and Method: A retrospective cohort analysis in 93 preterm infants > 24 weeks and birth weight > 500 g was performed, 31 infants for each surfactant. Exposure consisted of the 1st dose of bovactant (Alveofact®) 50 mg/kg, beractant (Survanta®) 100 mg/kg initially, and poractant alfa (Curosurf®) 200 mg/kg. The variables included duration of mechanical ventilation, duration of oxygen therapy, hospital stay, need for second dose of surfactant, adverse events surfactant administration and prematurity complications. Mortality and bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) were evaluated. Statistical analysis was performed using Stata® 11.0, X² or Fisher exact test for qualitative variables and ALNOVA or Kruskal-Wallis tests for quantitative and association relative risk, all with 95 percent confidence level. Results: There were no gender, weight and gestational age differences at birth among the three groups. No statistically significant differences were found regarding duration of mechanical ventilation, duration of oxygen therapy, administration of a second dose of surfactant, hospital stay and complications among the three groups. Adverse events related to surfactant administration occurred for beractant and poractant alpha. There were 30 (32.3 percent) deaths, 8 (25.8 percent) associated to bovactant, 10 (32.3%) to beractant and 12 (38.7 percent) to poractant alpha (p > 0.05). Mortality and/or BDP occurred in 10 (32.2 percent) infants who received bovactant, 10 (32.2 percent) beractant and 14 (45.2 percent) with poractant alpha (p > 0.05). Conclusions: The primary and secondary outcomes among the three surfactants tested were similar, taking into account the limitations of the work.
