RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction indicated by elevated pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (ePCWP) may worsen cardiorespiratory status in bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), but the scope of ePCWP by cardiac catheterization is not well described. METHODS: This single-center retrospective cohort study included infants with BPD without congenital heart disease, significant intracardiac shunts, or pulmonary vein stenosis who underwent cardiac catheterization from 2010 to 2021. ePCWP was defined as >10 mmHg. Quantitative measures of ventricular systolic and diastolic function were performed on existing echocardiograms. Patients with and without ePCWP were compared using the Chi-squared or Wilcoxon rank-sum tests. Associations between catheterization hemodynamics and echocardiographic parameters were assessed by simple linear regression. RESULTS: Seventy-one infants (93% Grade 2 or 3 BPD) met inclusion criteria, and 30 (42%) had ePCWP. Patients with ePCWP were older at catheterization (6.7 vs. 4.5 months, p < 0.001), more commonly underwent tracheostomy (66.7% vs. 29.3%, p = 0.003), and had higher mean systemic blood pressure [64.5 (56.0, 75.0) vs. 47.0 (43.0, 55.0) mm Hg, p < 0.001], higher systemic vascular resistance [11.9 (10.4, 15.6) vs. 8.7 (6.7, 11.2) WU*m2, p < 0.001), and lower cardiac index [3.9 (3.8, 4.9) vs. 4.7 (4.0, 6.3) L/min/m2, p = 0.03] at catheterization. Mean pulmonary artery pressure, pulmonary vascular resistance, and mortality were similar between the groups. Echocardiographic indices of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction did not correlate with PCWP. CONCLUSIONS: ePCWP was common in infants with severe BPD who underwent cardiac catheterization in this cohort. The association between ePCWP and higher systemic blood pressure supports further study of afterload reduction in this population.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To describe the scope of left ventricular (LV) dysfunction and left heart hypoplasia (LHH) in infants with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH), to determine associations with CDH severity, and to evaluate the odds of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and death with categories of left heart disease. STUDY DESIGN: Demographic and clinical variables were collected from a single-center, retrospective cohort of patients with CDH from January 2017 through May 2022. Quantitative measures of LV function and LHH were prospectively performed on initial echocardiograms. LHH was defined as ≥2 of the following: z score ≤ -2 of any left heart structure or LV end-diastolic volume <3 mL. LV dysfunction was defined as shortening fraction <28%, ejection fraction <60%, or global longitudinal strain <20%. The exposure was operationalized as a 4-group categorical variable (LV dysfunction +/-, LHH +/-). Logistic regression models evaluated associations with ECMO and death, adjusting for CDH severity. RESULTS: One hundred eight-two patients (80.8% left CDH, 63.2% liver herniation, 23.6% ECMO, 12.1% mortality) were included. Twenty percent demonstrated normal LV function and no LHH (LV dysfunction-/LHH-), 37% normal LV function with LHH (LV dysfunction-/LHH+), 14% LV dysfunction without LHH (LV dysfunction+/LHH-), and 28% both LV dysfunction and LHH (LV dysfunction+/LHH+). There was a dose-response effect between increasing severity of left heart disease, ECMO use, and mortality. LV dysfunction+/LHH + infants had the highest odds of ECMO use and death, after adjustment for CDH severity [OR (95% CI); 1.76 (1.20, 2.62) for ECMO, 2.76 (1.63, 5.17) for death]. CONCLUSIONS: In our large single-center cohort, patients with CDH with LV dysfunction+/LHH + had the highest risk of ECMO use and death.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate associations between cardiac catheterization (cath) hemodynamics, quantitative measures of right ventricular (RV) function by echocardiogram, and survival in patients with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). STUDY DESIGN: This single-center retrospective cohort study enrolled patients with CDH who underwent index cath from 2003 to 2022. Tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion z score, RV fractional area change, RV free wall and global longitudinal strain, left ventricular (LV) eccentricity index, RV/LV ratio, and pulmonary artery acceleration time were measured from preprocedure echocardiograms. Associations between hemodynamic values, echocardiographic measures, and survival were evaluated by Spearman correlation and Wilcoxon rank sum test, respectively. RESULTS: Fifty-three patients (68% left-sided, 74% liver herniation, 57% extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, 93% survival) underwent cath (39 during index hospitalization, 14 later) including device closure of a patent ductus arteriosus in 5. Most patients (n = 31, 58%) were on pulmonary hypertension treatment at cath, most commonly sildenafil (n = 24, 45%) and/or intravenous treprostinil (n = 16, 30%). Overall, hemodynamics were consistent with precapillary pulmonary hypertension. Pulmonary capillary wedge pressure was >15 mm Hg in 2 patients (4%). Lower fractional area change and worse ventricular strain were associated with higher pulmonary artery pressure while higher LV eccentricity index and higher RV/LV ratio were associated with both higher pulmonary artery pressure and higher pulmonary vascular resistance. Hemodynamics did not differ based on survival status. CONCLUSIONS: Worse RV dilation and dysfunction by echocardiogram correlate with higher pulmonary artery pressure and pulmonary vascular resistance on cath in this CDH cohort. These measures may represent novel, noninvasive clinical trial targets in this population.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To describe our experience with treprostinil, evaluate correlations with cardiac function, and assess for adverse effects in neonates with congenital diaphragmatic hernia-related pulmonary hypertension (CDH-PH). STUDY DESIGN: A retrospective review of a single-center prospective registry at a quaternary care children's hospital. Patients included in the study had CDH-PH treated with treprostinil between April 2013 and September 2021. Assessed outcomes were brain-type natriuretic peptide levels and quantitative echocardiographic parameters collected at baseline, 1 week, 2 weeks, and 1 month after treprostinil initiation. Right ventricular (RV) function was assessed by tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion Z-score and speckle tracking echocardiography (global longitudinal and free wall strain). Septal position and left ventricular (LV) compression were assessed by eccentricity index and M-mode Z-scores. RESULTS: Fifty-one patients were included, with an average expected/observed lung-to-head ratio of 28.4 ± 9.0%. Most patients required extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation (n = 45, 88%). Survival to hospital discharge was 31/49 (63%). Treprostinil was initiated at a median age of 19 days with a median effective dose of 34 ng/kg/minute. Median baseline brain-type natriuretic peptide level decreased from 416.9 pg/mL to 120.5 pg/mL after 1 month. Treprostinil was associated with improved tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion Z-score, RV global longitudinal strain, RV free wall strain, LV eccentricity index, and LV diastolic and systolic dimensions, reflecting less compression by the RV, regardless of ultimate patient survival. No serious adverse effects were recorded. CONCLUSIONS: In neonates with CDH-PH, treprostinil administration is well tolerated and is associated with improved RV size and function.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate factors associated with discontinuation of pulmonary vasodilator therapy in bronchopulmonary dysplasia-related pulmonary hypertension (BPD-PH). STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective study of neonatal, echocardiographic, and cardiac catheterization data in 121 infants with BPD-PH discharged on pulmonary vasodilator therapy from 2009-2020 and followed into childhood. RESULT: After median 4.4 years, medications were discontinued in 58%. Those in whom medications were discontinued had fewer days of invasive support, less severe BPD, lower incidence of PDA closure or cardiac catheterization, and higher incidence of fundoplication or tracheostomy decannulation (p < 0.05). On multivariable analysis, likelihood of medication discontinuation was lower with longer period of invasive respiratory support [HR 0.95 (CI:0.91-0.99), p = 0.01] and worse RV dilation on pre-discharge echocardiogram [HR 0.13 (CI:0.03-0.70), p = 0.017]. In those with tracheostomy, likelihood of medication discontinuation was higher with decannulation [HR 10.78 (CI:1.98-58.59), p < 0.001]. CONCLUSION: In BPD-PH, childhood discontinuation of pulmonary vasodilator therapy is associated with markers of disease severity.
