Geç Prematüre Yenidoğanların Erken Klinik Sonuçları

Year 2010, Volume: 4 Issue: 1, 30 - 35, 01.12.2010

Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışmada Kadın Hastalıkları ve Doğum Kliniği (KHDK)’nde doğan veya başka merkezde doğup, Yenidoğan Yoğun Bakım Ünitesi (YYBÜ)’ne yatırılan geç prematüre yenidoğanların [34(0/7) ile 36(6/7) gebelik haftasında doğma] morbiditelerinin araştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Metod: 1 Ocak-31Aralık 2007 tarihleri arasında YYBÜ’de yatırılarak tedavi alan geç prematüre bebeklerde, anne yaşı, paritesi, yardımcı üreme tekniği varlığı, gebelik haftası, doğum şekli, doğum ağırlığı, neonataldönem sorunları ve yatış nedenleri, hastanede yatış süresi ile tekrar hastaneye yatış oranları KHDK ve YYBÜ hasta kayıtları retrospektif olarak incelenerek araştırıldı. Sonuçlar: 1 Ocak-31 Aralık 2007 tarihleri arasında KHDK’nde doğan 1852 bebeğin 1556 (%84)’sı zamanında, 296 (%16)’sı prematüre doğdu. Geç prematüre doğan 174 bebek doğumların %9.4’ünü oluşturmaktaydı. Yenidoğan Yoğun Bakım Ünitesine yatış sayı ve oranları, zamanında doğan bebeklerde ve geç prematürelerde sırasıyla 155 (%10) ve 63 (%36.2) bulundu. Yatırılan toplam 80 geç prematürenin 17’si dış merkezden kabul edilmişti. Geç prematüre bebeklerin annelerinin ortalama yaşı 29.3±5.3’tü ve %37.4’ü primipar idi. Neonatal dönem sorunlarından en sık %37.5 ile indirekt hiperbilirubinemi daha sonra; solunum sıkıntısı %30, hipoglisemi %22.5 bebekte saptandı. Tartışma ve Sonuç: Zamanında doğan bebeklerle karşılaştırıldığında geç prematüre bebeklerde hastaneye yatış oranı yaklaşık 4 kat fazladır. Geç prematüre bebeklerde yatış gerektiren önemli morbiditeler indirekt hiperbilirubinemi ve solunum sıkıntısıdır. Doğum kliniklerinde bu bebekler potansiyel morbiditeleri ve YYBÜ’ne yatış olasılıkları göz ardı edilmeden yakın izlenmelidir.

THE EARLY CLINICAL OUTCOMES OF LATE PRETERM NEWBORNS

Year 2010, Volume: 4 Issue: 1, 30 - 35, 01.12.2010

Abstract

Objective: To investigate the morbidity pattern of late preterm infants (born between 34(0/7) and 36(6/7)) born in Obstetric and Gynecology Department or in an another hospital and admitted to Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). Methods: Hospital records of maternal age, parity, use of reproductive techniques, gestation week, birth type, birth weight, neonatal problems and reasons for hospitalization, length of stay at hospital, rehospitalization rates of late preterm infants admitted to NICU between the period of January 1 and December 31, 2007 were reviewed retrospectively.Results: At Obstetric and Gynecology Department, 1852 infants were born in the 12-month period; 1556 (84%) were full-term and 296 (16%) were preterm. One hundred seventy four infants were late preterm and late preterm delivery rate was 9.4%. NICU admission rate was 10% and 36.2% for full-term and late preterm infants, respectively. Seventeen of 80 late preterm infants admitted from another hospital. Mean maternal age was 29.3±5.3 and 37.4% of them was primiparae. Hyperbilirubinemia (37.5%), respiratory illness (30%) and hypoglycemia (22.5%) were the most common reasons for hospitalization.Discussion: Late preterm infants had 4 times the risk for hospitalization compared with full-term infants. Hyperbilirubinemia and respiratory illness are the most common morbidities. Late preterm infants who have potentially higher risk for morbidity and hospitalization require closer monitoring
