Follow-up of infants of diabetic mother combined with heart disease / 中华实用儿科临床杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the cardiac structure and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy of infant of diabetic mother(IDM),to analyze of the outcome of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in IDM.Methods Totally 23 cases of IDM admitted in NICU from Feb.2012 to Jan.2013 were selected as observation group,randomly selected from the same period with gestational age of diabetic mother baby 23 cases as control group.The interventricular septum thickness,left ventricular posterior wall thickness,aortic valve internal diameter,right ventricular diameter,ejection fraction were detected and compared between the 2 groups.And echocardiography was followed up in 3 months and 6 months old.Results In IDM group,interventricular septum thickness [(3.20 ± 0.28) mm],left ventricular posterior wall thickness [(3.40 ± 0.31) mm] were significantly higher than those in control group (all P ＜ 0.05).Ejection fraction [(54.00 ± 3.76) × 10-2] was significantly lower than that in control group(P ＜ 0.05).Follow-up after 3 months,6 months old,interventricular septum thickness,left ventricular posterior wall thickness and ejection fraction returned to normal.Four of the 23 cases(17.4％) had cardiac malformations.Conclusions IDM has high morbidity of congenital heart disease,echocardiography should be done to identify hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and congenital heart disease after birth.IDM combined with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a transient,benign process,prognosis is good.
