ABSTRACT
AIM:
To investigate the effects of caffeine loading/maintenance administration on near-infrared spectroscopy cerebral, kidney and splanchnic patterns in preterm infants.METHODS:
We conducted a multicentre case-control prospective study in 40 preterm infants (gestational age 29 ± 2 weeks) where each case acted as its own control. A caffeine loading dose of 20 mg/kg and a maintenance dose of 5 mg/kg after 24 h were administered intravenously. Near infrared spectroscopy monitoring parameters were monitored 30 min before, 30 min during and 180 min after caffeine therapy administration.RESULTS:
A significant increase (p < 0.05) in splanchnic regional oxygenation and tissue function and a decrease (p < 0.05) in cerebral tissue function after loading dose was shown. A preferential hemodynamic redistribution from cerebral to splanchnic bloodstream was also observed. After caffeine maintenance dose regional oxygenation did not change in the monitored districts, while tissue function increased in kidney and splanchnic bloodstream.CONCLUSION:
Different caffeine administration modalities affect cerebral/systemic oxygenation status, tissue function and hemodynamic pattern in preterm infants. Future studies correlating near infrared spectroscopy parameters and caffeine therapy are needed to determine the short/long-term effect of caffeine in preterm infants.Mots clés
