Popis: | OBJECTIVE The objective of this study is to discern patterns of serum sodium in a broad cohort of extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants and associate those patterns with hospital outcomes. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective cohort study of ELBW infants from 323 neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) discharged from 2004 to 2014. We included patients who survived at least 7 days and had daily sodium levels available, and categorized infants by their minimum and maximum sodium levels. RESULTS We identified 26,871 infants of whom 12,428 met inclusion criteria. Only 1964 (15.8%) maintained eunatremia for the first week. We found most dysnatremias to be associated with increased overall mortality compared with eunatremic patients including moderate hyponatremia (12.9% vs. 8.6%, p |
