Ascorbyl Peroxide Association With Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia

November 17, 2015 updated by: Ibrahim Mohamed, St. Justine's Hospital

Urinary Ascorbyl Peroxide as an Early Biological Marker of Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia in Preterm Infants Less Than 33 Weeks of Gestation

Urinary ascorbyl peroxide level in the first week of life will be a good predictor of Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in preterm infants less than 33 weeks of gestation.

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Detailed Description

This study uses ascorbyl peroxide as representative of oxidative stress in premature infants on parenteral nutrition and aims to test the correlation of this metabolite and the different major neonatal outcomes 'mainly bronchopulmonary dysplasia).

Design Details

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Preterm less than 33 weeks
This cohort will be composed of premature infants born before 33 weeks of gestational age, admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit at Sainte-Justine hospital and receiving parenteral nutrition (PN) during their first week of life.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia
Time Frame: 4 Months
To correlate the level of urinary Ascorbyl peroxide and BPD. Full diagnosis and classification (to mild, moderate or severe) is at 36 weeks of corrected age; so even for most premature infants (like 23 weeks of gestation) there will be a need for follow up for less than 4 month to have the final diagnosis at 36 weeks
4 Months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The redox status (in blood)
Time Frame: First week of life (week 1) and 36 semaines CA
Testing the correlation between the urinary level of ascorbyl peroxide and the redox status in the blood at 5 to 7 days of life. Measuring the Redox potential at 36 weeks corrected age to investigate long term effect of early oxidative stress.
First week of life (week 1) and 36 semaines CA
Major neonatal outcomes (NEC, ROP, PDA, IVH, PVL)
Time Frame: 4 Months
These outcomes are the major neonatal outcomes for preterm infants, we would test the correlation between ascorbyl peroxide (as marker of oxidative stress) and like Necrotising enterocolotis (NEC), Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP),patent ductus arteriosis(PDA), intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) and periventricular leucomalacia (PVL).
