Official title
The Efficacy of Intravenous Immunoglobulin for the Treatment of Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia
Overview
It is intended to examine the efficacy and safety of intravenous immunoglobulin(IVIG) for the bronchopulmonary dysplasia in preterms. Participants will received continuous infusion IVIG 1 g/kg/day for the first 2 days, 0.5 g/kg/day for next 3 days (total does 3.5 g/kg), repeatable if necessary.
Interventions
- Drug intravenous immunoglobulin
1 g/kg/day for the first 2 days, 0.5 g/kg/day for next 3 days (total does 3.5 g/kg), repeatable if necessary.
Primary outcome measures
- Diagnosis of bronchopulmonary dysplasia and severity of the condition at 36 weeks of PMA [Time frame: 36 weeks of postmenstrual age]
Secondary outcome measures (11)
- duration of respiratory support [Time frame: until first discharge home or 36 weeks PMA]
- Preterm birth complications [Time frame: until first discharge home or 36 weeks PMA]
- Neurodevelopmental assessment [Time frame: Corrected age/ chronological age of 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years.]
- Pulmonary function testing [Time frame: Corrected age/ chronological age of 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years]
- Vision screening [Time frame: Corrected age/ chronological age of 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years]
- Bone density measurement [Time frame: Corrected age/ chronological age of 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years]
- Blood routine tests [Time frame: Corrected age/ chronological age of 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years]
- Rehabilitation evaluation [Time frame: Corrected age/ chronological age of 6 months and 1 year]
- Weight [Time frame: Corrected age/ chronological age of 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years]
- Length [Time frame: Corrected age/ chronological age of 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years]
