Neonatal Intensive Care (NICU) Course and Hospital Outcome of Infants With BPD Treated Using Inhaled Nitric Oxide
Completed
Conditions studied: Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia
In brief
This is a chart review study of neonates admitted to Primary Children's Medical Center or University of Utah NICU who had or developed a diagnosis of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) and were treated for this condition with inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) beginning after the 4th week of life. For this study BPD will be defined as need for supplemental oxygen on day 28 of life. The data collection from the medical record will gather demographics on admission (birth weight, gestational age, etc); past medical history from transferring hospitals; admission diagnoses; hospital respiratory care treatment course and laboratory/xray findings; nutrition and growth; and discharge diagnoses including all major neonatal morbidities such as absence or severity of intraventricular hemorrhage, retinopathy of prematurity, or hearing deficits. The data will be compiled and compared to data previously published on similar infants with BPD but not treated with iNO.

You may qualify if…
- Any patient who at 28 days of life was requiring oxygen therapy in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and who was then treated with iNO would be eligible for chart review. Since iNO therapy has only been available for a few years, this study will attempt to capture all patients who qualify.
You may not qualify if…
- Any patient who received iNO treatment under an IRB study protocol after 28d of life would not be eligible for chart review.
