Title
Efficacy and safety of systemic hydrocortisone for the prevention of bronchopulmonary dysplasia in preterm infants: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Review Question
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) remains a common complication of preterm birth. Corticosteroids as potent anti-inflammatory agents could be of use in reducing the risk of developing BPD. Dexamethasone, a powerful glucocorticoid, became widely used in the 1990s after reports of short term respiratory benefit. Use declined when adverse effects emerged, particularly neurodevelopmental effects such as cognitive impairment and cerebral palsy. Systemic hydrocortisone has been postulated as a potentially safer drug to use in terms of long-term neurodevelopment. However, randomized trials of hydrocortisone involving human infants are limited.
Study Type Included
Prospective RCTs involving preterm infants were eligible for inclusion in the review.
Condition Being Studied
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia remains prevalent after extremely preterm birth,and has not decreased over time. Its cause is multifactorial:prematurity, mechanical ventilation, oxygen exposure, and inflammation are postulated to contribute to its development. Dexamethasone, a powerful glucocorticoid, became widely used now, however, use declined when adverse effects emerged, particularly neurodevelopmental effects such as cognitive impairment and cerebral palsy. Dexamethasone is not an ideal therapeutic agent, hydrocortisone has several potentially advantageous qualities, however, randomized trials of hydrocortisone involving human infants are limited, furthermore, the optimal dose and duration of hydrocortisone use is not yet known. This trial will undertaken to determine both the efficacy of hydrocortisone in increasing survival without bronchopulmonary dysplasia and its longer-term or short-term safety.
Participant
Preterm infants (<32weeks)
Animal
Human Disease Modelled
Intervention
Systemic use of hydrocortisone
Comparator Control
Placebo
Main Outcome
The primary outcome included both efficacy (survival without BPD at 36 weeks of postmenstrual age) and safety measures (survival without moderate or severe neurodevelopmental impairment at 22 to 26 months). Measures of effect Statistical analysis was conducted using Review Manager (RevMan) version 5.3. For continuous outcomes, the mean and standard deviation (SD) reported in each study were collected and analysed and presented as mean differences (MD) along with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). For categorical outcomes (such as survival or BPD), data was extracted for each intervention group for analysis and presented as risk ratio (RRs) with 95% CI.
Outcome Measure
Additional Outcome
Our analysis includes data from four extra studies, one using early hydrocortisone and using late hydrocortisone, one using small hydrocortisone and large hydrocortisone. Specific adverse events: Cerebral palsy; Gastrointestinal; Intraventricular haemorrhage; Neurodevelopmental impairment; Necrotising enterocolitis; Patent ductus arteriosus; Periventricular leucomalacia; Retinopathy of prematurity. Measures of effect Studies were grouped according to whether hydrocortisone was started early, or late, small;or large and separate analyses were conducted for each group.. For categorical outcomes , data was extracted for each intervention group for analysis and presented as risk ratio (RRs) with 95% CI.A prespecified sub-group analysis was conducted by including studies in which hydrocortisone was used for the prevention of BPD .Significance was set at p < 0.05.
