Risk factors associated with the development of necrotizing enterocolitis in preterm infants on an exclusive human milk diet: a single-center case-control study.
Objective: Identify early neonatal and maternal risk factors for development of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) in preterm infants receiving an exclusive human milk diet (EHMD).
Study design: Preterm infants who developed NEC stage ≥2 while receiving an EHMD were compared to matched controls who did not develop NEC on the same diet. Predictors of NEC were selected for multiple-predictor logistic regression analysis based on literature or significance in single-predictor models.
Results: A total of 27 cases and 98 controls (mean GA = 27 weeks) were included. Groups did not differ significantly on baseline characteristics. Maternal urinary tract infection, maternal neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio before delivery, and vasopressor use during the first week significantly predicted NEC.
Conclusion: Despite the use of EHMD, NEC remains a concern, underlining its multifactorial nature. Results highlight the potential role of maternal inflammation and early neonatal hemodynamic instability in NEC development. Findings could inform future research aimed at identifying high-risk infants.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Perinatology provides members of the perinatal/neonatal healthcare team with original information pertinent to improving maternal/fetal and neonatal care. We publish peer-reviewed clinical research articles, state-of-the art reviews, comments, quality improvement reports, and letters to the editor. Articles published in the Journal of Perinatology embrace the full scope of the specialty, including clinical, professional, political, administrative and educational aspects. The Journal also explores legal and ethical issues, neonatal technology and product development.
The Journal’s audience includes all those that participate in perinatal/neonatal care, including, but not limited to neonatologists, perinatologists, perinatal epidemiologists, pediatricians and pediatric subspecialists, surgeons, neonatal and perinatal nurses, respiratory therapists, pharmacists, social workers, dieticians, speech and hearing experts, other allied health professionals, as well as subspecialists who participate in patient care including radiologists, laboratory medicine and pathologists.
