ABSTRACT
Objective:
To study the risk factors of hypoglycemia in late preterm infants.Methods:
From January 2019 to December 2021, late premature infants admitted to NICU of our hospital were retrospectively studied. The infants with hypoglycemia were assigned into the hypoglycemia group and infants with same gestational age and normoglycemia were assigned into the control group in a 1∶1 ratio. The perinatal and maternal data of the two groups were compared. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the risk factors of hypoglycemia in late premature infants.Results:
A total of 366 cases each were included in the hypoglycemia group and the control group. No significant difference existed in birth weight between the two groups ( P>0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that antenatal corticosteroid ( OR=1.567, 95% CI 1.127-2.180), cesarean section ( OR=2.013, 95% CI 1.376-2.944), twin birth ( OR=2.241, 95% CI 1.479-3.396) and infant of a diabetic mother ( OR=1.635, 95% CI 1.131-2.365) were the risk factors of hypoglycemia in late preterm infants ( P<0.05).Conclusions:
Antenatal corticosteroid, cesarean section, twin birth and infant of a diabetic mother are independent risk factors for hypoglycemia in late preterm infants.
