Objectives: This study aims to describe the effectiveness of low initial alprostadil dosages to maintain a patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in infants with ductal-dependent congenital heart disease (DDCHD). Secondary objectives were to describe any adverse drug events, describe prescribing trends, describe ductus arteriosus diameter changes, and compare the safety and efficacy of very low and low initial alprostadil dosage regimens.
Methods: This retrospective observational cohort study at the British Columbia's Women's and Children's Hospital neonatal intensive care unit and pediatric intensive care unit examined neonates admitted with DDCHD who received alprostadil to maintain ductal patency. Very low-dose alprostadil (less than 0.01 mcg/kg/min) versus low-dose alprostadil (equal to or greater than 0.01 mcg/kg/min) was examined. Effectiveness was defined as survival and infants not requiring a resuscitation event (cardiac arrest, cardiogenic shock, code blue, extracorporeal life support, requirement for emergent cardiac surgery, and respiratory acidosis). Adverse drug events with a Naranjo score of 3 or more were included.
Results: Alprostadil was effective for 88% of patients, with no difference between the very low-dose and low-dose groups. Of the 75 patients included, 25 received very low-dose alprostadil. Adverse drug events were common (51%) with neonates in the low-dose group experiencing more apnea and pyrexia than neonates in the very low-dose group.
Conclusions: Alprostadil therapy was effective in maintaining the PDA in neonates with DDCHD with low-dosage regimens. Adverse drug events were common with both dosage regimens; however, the very low dosage appeared to have less apnea and pyrexia.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Pediatric Pharmacology and Therapeutics is the official journal of the Pediatric Pharmacy Advocacy Group. JPPT is a peer-reviewed multi disciplinary journal that is devoted to promoting the safe and effective use of medications in infants and children. To this end, the journal publishes practical information for all practitioners who provide care to pediatric patients. Each issue includes review articles, original clinical investigations, case reports, editorials, and other information relevant to pediatric medication therapy. The Journal focuses all work on issues related to the practice of pediatric pharmacology and therapeutics. The scope of content includes pharmacotherapy, extemporaneous compounding, dosing, methods of medication administration, medication error prevention, and legislative issues. The Journal will contain original research, review articles, short subjects, case reports, clinical investigations, editorials, and news from such organizations as the Pediatric Pharmacy Advocacy Group, the FDA, the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists, and so on.
