Intraventricular Hemorrhage in Very Preterm Children: Mortality and Neurodevelopment at Age 5
Résumé
The objectives were to describe mortality and causes of death in children with intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) and to study neurodevelopmental outcomes. The study was a secondary analysis of the French national prospective and population-based cohort EPIPAGE-2. Children were recruited in 2011. A standardized assessment was conducted at age 5. Children born before 32 weeks’ gestation and admitted to a NICU were eligible. Exposure was IVH defined by the Papile classification. Main outcomes were mortality, causes of death, and neurodevelopmental outcomes at age 5. Among the 3468 children included, 578 (16.7%) had grade 1 IVH, 424 (12.2%) grade 2 IVH, and 114 (3.3%) grade 3 IVH; 144 (4.1%) had intraparenchymal hemorrhage (IPH). Mortality was 29.7% (36 of 114) for children with grade 3 IVH and 74.4% (109 of 144) for those with IPH; 67.6% (21 of 31) and 88.7% (86 of 97) of deaths, respectively, were because of withholding and withdrawing of life-sustaining treatment. As compared with no IVH, low-grade IVH was not associated with measured neurodevelopmental disabilities at age 5. High-grade IVH was associated with moderate and severe neurodevelopmental disabilities, reduced full-scale IQ, and cerebral palsy. In conclusion, rates of neurodevelopmental disabilities at age 5 did not differ between children without IVH and those with low-grade IVH. For high-grade IVH, mortality rate was high, mostly because of withholding and withdrawal of life-sustaining treatment, and we found a strong association with overall neurodevelopmental disabilities in survivors.
