ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
This study aimed to determine neurodevelopmental outcomes of preterm infants born at <29 weeks' gestational age (GA) with bronchopulmonary dysplasia and pulmonary hypertension (BPD-PH) at 18 to 24 months' corrected age (CA). STUDYDESIGN:
In this retrospective cohort study, preterm infants born at <29 weeks' GA between January 2016 and December 2019, admitted to level 3 neonatal intensive care units, who developed BPD and were evaluated at 18 to 24 months' CA in the neonatal follow-up clinics were included. We compared demographic characteristics and neurodevelopmental outcomes between the two groups Group I BPD with PH and Group II BPD with no PH, using univariate and multivariate regression models. The primary outcome was a composite of death or neurodevelopmental impairment (NDI). NDI was defined as any Bayley-III score < 85 on one or more of the cognitive, motor, or language composite scores.RESULTS:
Of 366 eligible infants, 116 (Group I [BPD-PH] =7, Group II [BPD with no PH] = 109) were lost to follow-up. Of the remaining 250 infants, 51 in Group I and 199 in Group II were followed at 18 to 24 months' CA. Group I and Group II had median (interquartile range [IQR]) birthweights of 705 (325) and 815 g (317; p = 0.003) and median GAs (IQR) were 25 (2) and 26 weeks (2; p = 0.015) respectively. Infants in the BPD-PH group (Group I) were more likely to have mortality or NDI (adjusted odds ratio 3.82; bootstrap 95% confidence interval; 1.44-40.87).CONCLUSION:
BPD-PH in infants born at <29 weeks' GA is associated with increased odds of the composite outcome of death or NDI at 18 to 24 months' CA. KEY POINTS · Long-term neurodevelopmental follow-up of preterm infants born <29 weeks' GA.. · Association of neurodevelopmental outcomes with BPD-associated PH.. · Need for longitudinal follow-up of children with BPD-associated PH..
