Markers of Platelet Activation foR Identification of Late Onset Sepsis in Preterm Infants (PARENT)
November 28, 2023 updated by: University College Dublin
The PARENT study will examine platelet and endothelial associated proteins in preterm infants being investigated for late onset sepsis (LOS) to see if infants with fulminant sepsis can be prospectively identified using these markers

Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
Infants who are less than 34 weeks corrected gestational age at time of birth will be enrolled prior to any late onset sepsis investigations.
At point of clinical concern for the development of late onset sepsis a 0.5-1.3ml
sodium citrate sample will be taken.
A targeted proteomic analysis using mass spectroscopy and flow cytometry will be performed and compared with the clinical diagnosis of the infant to examine if this can be used prospectively to identify infants with late onset sepsis

Cohorts and Interventions
Group / Cohort |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Infants with concern regarding late onset sepsis
Infants who are being investigated for late onset sepsis will be included.
These infants may ultimately be classified in a number of ways, including culture positive late onset sepsis, culture negative late onset sepsis, necrotising enterocolitis or non infectious etiologies suspected (i.e prematurity)
|
Samples taken will undergo a targeted proteomic investigation examining platelet/endothelial markers and associated extracellular vesicles
|
What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
A difference exists between infants with culture proven late onset sepsis and those without in platelet and endothelial proteomic profiles
Time Frame: 3 years
|
Proteomic profiles including extracellular vesicles will be compared between those with and without culture proven sepsis
|
3 years
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
To examine platelet markers in this same cohort and determine if they can distinguish between culture negative sepsis and non-sepsis
Time Frame: 3 years
|
Proteomic profiles including extracellular vesicles will be compared between those with no culture proven sepsis and those without concern for sepsis/ a likely non infectious etiology
|
3 years
|
To determine if platelet activation markers correlate with severity of illness as established by prospective use of validated clinical scoring systems ( the novel neonatal Sequential organ failure assessment)
Time Frame: 3 years
|
Proteomic profiles including extracellular vesicles will be compared with the nSOFA to examine if fulminant sepsis (Culture proven/Culture negative) can be predicted
|
3 years
|
To determine if platelet activation markers predict the development of necrotising enterocolitis (Radiological/Surgical)
Time Frame: 3 years
|
Proteomic profiles including extracellular vesicles will be compared between those with and without radiological/surgical necrotising enterocolitis as final diagnosis
|
3 years
