Abstract

Amaç: Şubat 2007 ile Şubat 2013 tarihleri arasında Fatih Üniversitesi Hastanesi yenidoğan yoğun bakım ünitesinde takip edilen doğum ağırlıkları 1500gr ve altı bebeklerin hastalık ve ölüm oranlarını belirlemek amacıyla hastalar retrospektif olarak incelendi.

Yöntemler: Çalışma doğum kilosu 1000 gram ve daha az (31 bebek), 1001-1500 gram arası (41 bebek) olarak ikiye bölünen 72 prematüre bebek ile yapılmıştır. Bu bebeklerin verileri dosyalardan kaydedilip, istatiksel olarak değerlendirildi. Bebeklerin doğum ağırlıkları 670 ile 1500 gram arasında, doğum haftaları 25 ile 35 hafta arasında değişmekteydi.

Bulgular: Çalışmamızda çok düşük doğum ağırlıklı bebeklerin ölüm oranı %7,6 idi. 1000gr ve altı bebeklerde oksijen ve antibiyotik tedavi süreleri anlamlı olarak uzun bulundu( p<0,01). Bütün çalışma grubunda en sık görülen hastalıklar %54,2 (39) prematüre retinopatisi (ROP), %51,4 (n=37) bronkopulmoner displazi (BPD), %34,5 (n=20) intraventriküler hemoraji (İVH) idi. 1000 gr altı bebeklerde kronik akciğer hastalığı ve prematüre retinopatisi (ROP) görülme oranları istatiksel olarak anlamlı bulundu (p<0,01). 

Sonuç: Ünitemizde mortalite oranımız düşük, ancak ROP, İVH, BPD oranlarımızın yüksek olması nedeniyle bu hastalıkların risk faktörlerinin iyi değerlendirilerek önlemlerin alınması ve böylece çok düşük ağırlıklı prematüre bebeklerimizin uzun dönemde yaşam kalitelerinin arttırılması gerektiğini düşünmekteyiz.

Evaluation of very low birth weight infants in the neonatal intensive care unit of a university hospital

Abstract

Objective: Neonates with birth weights below 1500 g who were cared for in the neonatal intensive care unit of Fatih University Hospital were retrospectively examined in order to define their rates of morbidity and mortality.

Methods: This study was conducted on 72 premature infants divided into two groups: those with birth weights below 1000 g(31 infants) and those above 1001 g(41 infants). Data on these infants were recorded and statistically evaluated. Birth weights ranged from 670 g to 1500 g and gestational weeks varied between 25 and 35 weeks.

Results: In our study, the mortality rate of infants with extremely low birth weights was 7.6%. Durations of oxygen and antibiotic therapies were found to be significantly longer in the infants with birth weights of 1000 g or less (p < 0.01). The most common diseases in all the groups were retinopathy of prematurity, occurring in 54.2% (n=39); broncho-pulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in 51.4% (n=37); and intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) in 34.5% (n=20). Incidence of chronic pulmonary disease and retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) was found to be statistically significant in the infants with birth weights of 1000 g or less (p < 0.01).

Conclusion: Because mortality rate is low but rates of ROP, IVH and BPD are high in this unit, risk factors of these diseases should be well assessed and necessary measures should be taken in order to increase quality of life in the long term for the infants with extremely low birth weights.
