Abstract

Objective: To determine the association between feeding intolerance and late onset sepsis (LOS) in very low birth weight (VLBW) infants.
Material and Methods: In this retrospective study inborn infants with a gestational age less than 32 weeks or birth weight less then 1500 grams were enrolled. Demographic and neonatal characteristics of infants who had culture proven LOS were compared with the control infants, matched for birth weight and gestational age.
Results: A total of 408 infants (LOS n=136, non LOS n=272) were analyzed. The mean (SD) gestational age and birth weight of the whole cohort were 27.8 weeks (±1.6) and 1016.92 grams (±200.39) Exclusively breast feeding was lower and feeding intolerance was more frequent in LOS group (p=0.028, p<0.001; respectively). Time to regain birth weight, time to reach full enteral feeding, nothing per oral day, duration of the requirement of total parenteral nutrition were longer in LOS group compared to non LOS group (p=0.048, p<0.001, p<0.001, p<0.001; respectively). Weight gain per day, weight gain at first and fourth week of life were significantly lower in infants with LOS (p=0.000, p=0.045 and p=0.046; respectively). Logistic regression analysis revealed that respiratory distress syndrome (OR=1.76, 95% CI 1.12-2.76;P=0.013), feeding intolerance (OR=3.84 95% CI 2.36-6.24; p<0.001) or exclusively breast feeding (OR=0.60, 95% CI 0.39-0.94;p=0.025) were independently associated with the development of LOS.
Conclusion: Feeding intolerance impairs the immunologic and barrier functions of the gut and facilitates the onset of sepsis.

Çok Düşük Doğum Ağırlıklı Bebeklerde Beslenme İntoleransının Geç Neonatal Sepsis İle ilişkisi

Abstract

Amaç: Çok düşük doğum ağırlıklı (ÇDDA) bebeklerdeki beslenme intoleransının geç neonatal sepsis (GNS) ile ilişkisinin değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır.
Gereç ve Yöntemler: Bu retrospektif çalışmaya doğum ağırlığı ≤1500 gram veya gestasyon haftası ≤32 hafta olan infantlar dahil edildi. Kültür ile kanıtlanmış GNS tanısıyla izlenen bebeklerin demografik ve klinik özellikleri, doğum ağırlığı ve gestasyon haftası benzer olan kontrol grubu ile karşılaştırıldı.
Bulgular: Toplam 408 infant (GNS olan n=136, GNS olmayan=272) değerlendirildi. Çalışmaya dahil edilen hastaların ortalama (SD) gestasyon haftası ve doğum ağırlığı 27.8 hafta (±1.6) ve 1016.92 gram (±200.39) idi. GNS olan bebeklerde sadece anne sütü ile beslenme oranı daha düşük, beslenme intoleransı daha fazlaydı (sırasıyla p=0.028, p<0.001). GNS olan bebeklerde doğum ağırlığına ulaşma süresi, tam enteral beslenmeye geçiş zamanı, hiç beslenmediği gün sayısı, total parenteral nutrisyon ihtiyacı olan gün sayısı GNS olmayan grup ile karşılaştırıldığında anlamlı olarak daha yüksekti. (sırasıyla p=0.048, p<0.001, p<0.001, p<0.001). Günlük kilo alımının, 1.ve 4. haftadaki kilo alımının GNS olan grupta anlamlı olarak daha düşük olduğu bulundu (sırasıyla p=0.000, p=0.045 ve p=0.046).). Lojistik regresyon analizinde respiratuar distres sendromu (OR=1.76, 95% CI 1.12-2.76;P=0.013), beslenme intoleransı (OR=3.84 95% CI 2.36-6.24; p<0.001) ve sadece anne sütü ile beslenmenin (OR=0.60, 95% CI 0.39-0.94;p=0.025) GNS gelişimi ile bağımsız olarak ilişkili olduğu gösterildi.
Sonuç: Beslenme intoleransı bağırsağın immunolojik ve bariyer fonksiyonlarını bozarak sepsis gelişimini kolaylaştırır.
