Management of Neonatal Respiratory Distress Syndrome European Consensus Guidelines 2010 Update Ola Didrik Saugstad, MD Department of Pediatric Research Oslo University Hospital, University of Oslo, Norway Kiev, Nov 30th 2011
European Guidelines on RDS: 2010 • European panel of experts convened under auspices of EAPM to develop evidence-based guidelines on management of RDS. Supported by an unrestricted educational grant from Chiesi Farmaceutici but none of the panel members received honoraria for their contributions. • HLH and CPS are consultants to Chiesi • ODS and VPC members of the Chiesi Advisory Board
European Consensus Guideline Panel • Virgilio Carnielli Ancona, Italy • Gorm Griesen Copenhagen, Denmark • Henry Halliday Belfast, UK • Mikko Hallman Oulu, Finland • Eren Ozek Istanbul, Turkey • Richard Plavka Prague, Czech Republic • Ola Saugstad Oslo, Norway • Umberto Simeoni Marseille, France • Christian Speer Wurzburg, Germany • David Sweet Belfast, UK (Secretary)
Updated Guidelines: 2010What is New? Guidelines contain new evidence from recent Cochrane reviews and the literature since 2007. Many of the previous recommendations on surfactant and CPAP are now more firmly evidence-based. The section on delivery room stabilisation has been considerably expanded. New recommendations on delaying cord clamping and a new section on avoiding or reducing duration of mechanical ventilation, including recommendations on caffeine therapy, nasal ventilation, permissive hypercarbia and the role of newer ventilator modalities. A new miscellaneous section has also been added covering aspects of RDS management that arise infrequently
Aims • Discuss controversies in RDS management • Examine the evidence for best practice • Develop consensus guidelines from evidence available up to end of 2009 • Publish the consensus recommendations on management of RDS in 2010, updating those of 2007
RDS - Definition • Pulmonary insufficiency starting at birth • Mainly confirmed to preterm babies • Caused by lack of alveolar surfactant • Presents with respiratory distress • Development of respiratory failure • Natural course is death or recovery after 3-4 days • Classical X-Ray appearances • Ground glass appearance • Air bronchograms
RDS - Treatment • Oxygen • CPAP • Mechanical ventilation • Surfactant replacement • Supportive Care
RDS – Aims of Management • Maximise numbers of survivors • Minimise potential adverse effects of disease or therapy • Many interventions have been studied in randomised controlled clinical trials and systematic reviews
Grades of Evidence and Levels of Recommendation • A = Meta-analysis or high quality RCT • B = Smaller RCT or systematic review of case-control studies • C = Good quality case-control or cohort study • D = Case series or expert opinion • Modified from SIGN guidelines handbook www.sign.ac.uk/guidelines/fulltext/50 /
European Guidelines on RDS: 2010 • Prenatal Care • Delivery Room Stabilisation • Surfactant Therapy • Oxygen Supplementation Beyond Stabilisation • Role of CPAP • Mechanical Ventilation (MV) Strategies • Avoiding or Reducing Duration of MV • Prophylactic Treatment for Sepsis • Supportive Care: thermal, fluid and nutrition, tissue perfusion, ductus arteriosus • Miscellaneous Considerations
Management of RDS can be influenced before birth • Consider place of delivery • Role of infection in initiation of preterm labour • Role of antibiotics? • Role of antenatal steroids • Which steroid? • How many courses? • Who should get them? • Role of tocolytic agents • Allow steroids to take effect or time to transfer
Prenatal Care Recommendations: 2010 • Mothers at high risk should be transferred to a perinatal centre (C) • Single course of prenatal steroids should be given if threatened preterm labour from 23 to 35 wk gestation (A) • Antibiotics should be given to mothers with PPROM (A) • Consider short-term tocolytics to allow transfer in utero or time to complete course of steroids (A) • Consider a second course of steroids if risk of RDS outweighs uncertainty about long-term adverse effects (D). Multiple pregnancy might be an example (C).
Delivery Room Stabilisation • Babies with RDS have difficulty maintaining FRC and alveolar aeration. • Traditionally, many are resuscitated with bag & mask using 100% oxygen and there is emerging evidence that 100% oxygen may be harmful • Many are intubated for prophylactic surfactant • Uncontrolled tidal volumes are also detrimental to the immature lung and early CPAP is being advocated • Delayed clamping of the cord may confer benefits • Hypothermia should be avoided
Delivery Room Stabilisation – Recommendations - 1 • If possible, delay cord clamping for at least 30-45 sec (A). • Oxygen should be controlled with a blender and the lowest possible concentration should be used (~30%), provided there is an adequate heart rate response (B). • 30% oxygen to start and titrate using pulse oximetry but note normal sats may be 40-60%, reaching 50-80% by 5 min but should be >85% by 10 min. Avoid hyperoxia (B). • If spontaneous breathing, stabilise with CPAP of 5-6 cm water via mask or prongs (B). If breathing is insufficient consider a sustained inflation rather than IPPV (B). • Ventilation with a T-piece device is preferable to a self-inflating or flow-inflating bag to generate PEEP (C).
Delivery Room Stabilisation – Recommendations - 2 • If PPV is needed avoid excessive tidal volumes and maintain PEEP (D). • Reserve intubation for babies not responding to PPV or those requiring surfactant (D). • Verify correct position of the endotracheal tube using colorimetric CO2 detection (D). • Plastic bags or occlusive wrapping under radiant warmers should be used for babies < 28 weeks’ gestation (A).
Surfactant Therapy • Surfactants have revolutionised respiratory care over past 2 decades, and when given prophylactically or as rescue therapy reduce death and pulmonary airleaks in RDS • Many RCTs have been performed to determine the best surfactant, and the optimal timing of dosing and redosing • However, most trials were in the era of low prenatal steroid and CPAP use
Surfactant Therapy – dosing and redosing • At least 100 mg/kg phospholipid is required and 200 mg/kg may be better for established RDS • Administration by bolus results in better distribution • Prophylaxis reduces mortality and air leaks, but more babies end up being treated • Surfactant can be given whilst avoiding mechanical ventilation using INSURE technique • A second (and occasionally a third) dose is sometimes required
Surfactant Therapy - Recommendations • Babies with or at high risk of RDS should be given a natural surfactant preparation (A). • Prophylaxis for most babies < 26 weeks’ gestation. Prophylaxis also if intubation required (A). • Early rescue for untreated babies if evidence of RDS such as increasing oxygen requirement (A). • Poractant alfa200 mg/kg is better than 100 mg/kg (of poractant or beractant) for moderate to severe RDS (B). • Consider early extubation to CPAP if stable (B). • A 2nd/ 3rd dose should be given if ongoing evidence of RDS such as persistent oxygen or MV need (A).

Surfactant for RDS: Evidence Based Approach • Animal Derived Surfactants: Faster weaning of O2, and MAP, Fewer air leaks, and Decreased Mortality when compared to synthetic Surfactants. • Among Animal Derived Surfactants, Porcine surfactant, Curosurf provides Faster Weaning, Rapid Extubation, Less PDA, Survival Advantage & Cost-effectiveness when compared to Bovine surfactants, Survanta or Infasurf • Best Timing: < 60 minutes of Age
Oxygen supplementation beyond stabilisation • Currently no firm evidence to guide optimal oxygen saturations in NICU • Suggestions to target between 85% and 93% and not exceed 95% to reduce ROP and BPD • Long-term neuro-developmental outcomes are unknown • Hyperoxia can occur following surfactant therapy • Fluctuations in oxygen saturations may also increase the risk of ROP • Optimal saturation targets currently being studied in BOOST-II, COT and SUPPORT
Oxygen supplementation beyond stabilisation • In oxygen, saturations should be maintained at all times between 85 and 93% (D). • After surfactant, avoid a hyperoxic peak, which is associated with IVH, by rapid reduction in oxygen (C). • Avoid fluctuations in oxygen saturations in the postnatal period (D).
What is new and why this topic? Stabilisation/Resuscitation: How to titrate FiO2 if oxygen is needed? Optimal FiO2 for preterm infants is not known Oxygen saturation beyond the DR in ELBWI: New data on mortality has created uncertainty of safety A too low SpO2 reduces ROP and BPD but increases mortality Consequences for clinical practice Previous reccommendations of SpO2 targets should perhap be changed
Should we resuscitate extremely low birth weight infants with a low FiO2?
