Abstract Objective To determine whether maternal antihypertensive drugs influenced cerebral oxygenation in preterm infants during the first days after birth. Methods We included 49 preterm infants (median gestational age 30.3 weeks, (range 26.0-31.9), birth weight 1250 grams, (560-2250)). Regional cerebral oxygen saturation (r(c)SO(2)) was measured by near-infrared spectroscopy on postnatal days 1,2,3,4,5. Fractional tissue oxygen extraction (FTOE) was calculated using r(c)SO(2) and arterial oxygen saturation (SpO(2)) values:(SpO(2)-r(c)SO(2))/SpO(2). Results Nine mothers were treated with labetalol and/or MgSO(4) during pregnancy, three mothers with labetalol, MgSO(4), and nifedipine, and 19 mothers with nifedipine only. Eighteen infants served as controls. Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that exposure to labetalol and/or MgSO(4) during pregnancy decreased FTOE on day 1 after birth, while nifedipine did not. Conclusions Treating pregnant women with labetalol and/or MgSO(4) may influence cerebral oxygen extraction in their offspring shortly after birth. |
