Infant, Premature Clinical Trial
The aim of the study was to evaluate BNP in preterm infants < 28 weeks on the second day of life, when it is still unknown, if a patent ductus arteriosus is hemodynamic significant or not. We hypothesized that high plasma BNP concentrations on day 2 are associated with the need of PDA intervention in the further course.
From the study infants blood samples (0.1ml) were collected in K-EDTA microtubes within 24
to 48 hours of age through umbilical artery catheter aspiration or routine venous puncture.
The samples were spun at 7000 rpm for 3 minutes. Platelet-free plasma was stored at -20°C
until BNP analysis of all collected samples was carried out. The BNP assay was performed
using a fully automated immunoassay system ADVIA method for the Centaur System (Bayer
Diagnostic Division).
In preterm infants who were treated with indomethacin or surgical ligation we collected
additional blood samples 2-4 hours before intervention and 24 hours after the completion of
the ductus treatment.
