Treatment of Severe Meconium Aspiration Syndrome of Newborn Piglet by High Frequency Oscillatory Ventilation and Magnesium Sulphate / 中华围产医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the effect of high frequency oscillation ventilation (HFOV) and HFOV+ MgSO 4 on oxygenation, pulmonary and systemic arterial pressure, histologic alterations, and serum magnesium concentration in severe meconium aspiration syndrome(MAS) piglets with persistent pulmonary hypertension(PPH). Methods Newborn piglets were randomized to HFOV group( n =6), HFOV+MgSO 4 group( n =7) and control group( n =5). Piglets of HFOV group and HFOV+MgSO 4 group received an intratracheal a 20% suspension of human meconium. All piglets were given HFOV, Piglet of HFOV+MgSO 4 group was given MgSO 4 intravenously simultaneously. Cardiopulmonary functions, blood gases were monitored and serum magnesium concentration of piglets in HFOV+MgSO 4 group were measured by atomic absorption spectrophotometric assay. Results (1) HFOV and HFOV+ MgSO 4 treatment showed improved oxygenation in MAS model, PaO 2,a/APO 2 increased significantly and A-aDO 2?,Qs/Qt decreased significantly in HFOV group at 30 minute ( P
