ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
Extremely-low-birth-weight infants (ELBWIs), especially those or =26-GW (n=65) infants nursed in 60% humidity.RESULTS:
Survival rate until discharge was 33%, 82%, 75% and 89.3% in 22-GW, 23-GW, 24-GW and > or =26-GW infants, respectively. Compared to > or =26-GW infants, fluid intake and IWL was higher in 22-GW and 23-WG, but not as different in 24-GW. At postnatal day (P) 3-5, urine output was significantly lower in > or =26-GW infants than in the other age groups. Serum sodium level was significantly higher in 22-, 23- and 24-GW (P1-2) than in > or =26-GW infants. Hypernatremia (>150 mEq/dl sodium) was more frequent in 22-GW (71%), 23-GW (41%) and 24-GW (21%) than in > or =26-GW infants (14%).CONCLUSION:
High-humidity environments significantly decreased fluid intake and improved electrolyte imbalance in 24-GW, but not in 22- and 23-GW infants. Increased IWL in the latter might be related to more immature skin, implicating the need for additional nurturing conditions.
