Abstrakt: | Objective: The aim of this study was to determine which late-preterm (35-36 weeks' gestational age [GA]) and term neonates with early-onset hypoglycemia in the first 72 hours postnatal required a continuous glucose infusion to achieve and successfully maintain euglycemia. Study Design: This is a retrospective cohort study of late preterm and term neonates born in 2010-2014 and admitted to the Mother-Baby Unit at Parkland Hospital who had laboratory-proven blood glucose concentration < 40 mg/dL (2.2 mmol/L) during the first 72 hours of life. Among the subgroup needing intravenous (IV) glucose infusion, we analyzed which factors predicted a maximum glucose infusion rate (GIR) ≥ 10 mg/kg/min. The entire cohort was randomly divided into a derivation cohort ( n = 1,288) and a validation cohort ( n = 1,298). Results: In multivariate analysis, the need for IV glucose infusion was associated with small size for GA, low initial glucose concentration, early-onset infection, and other perinatal variables in both cohorts. A GIR ≥ 10 mg/kg / min was required in 14% of neonates with blood glucose value < 20 mg/dL during the first 3 hours of observation. The likelihood of a GIR ≥ 10 mg/kg/min was associated with lower initial blood glucose value and lower umbilical arterial pH. Conclusion: Need for IV glucose infusion was associated with small size for GA, low initial glucose concentration, early-onset infection, and variables associated with perinatal hypoxia-asphyxia. The likelihood of a maximum GIR ≥ 10 mg/kg/min was greater in neonates with lower blood glucose value during the first 3 hours of observation and lower umbilical arterial pH. Key Points: · We studied 51,973 neonates ≥ 35 weeks' GA.. · We established a model predicting the need for IV glucose.. · We also predicted the need for a high rate of IV glucose..
