Non-invasive assessment of oxidative stress in preterm infants

Abstract: Preterm newborns have an immature antioxidant defense system and are especially susceptible to oxidative stress. Resuscitation, mechanical ventilation, intermittent hypoxia and apneic episodes require frequently oxygen supplementation which leads to oxidative stress in preterm newborns. The consequences of oxidative damage are increased short and long-term morbidities, neurodevelopmental impairment and increased mortality.Oxidative stress biomarkers are determined in blood samples from preterm children during … Show more

“…Moreover, it could be acquired without any discomfort in comparison to blood or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) collection [27]. Therefore, biomarkers from saliva might be easily gained, especially in small children and even newborn [36]. The samples can be even self-collected by the patients at home or with the help of a caregiver, and easily store in the refrigerator until diagnostics [37].…”

“…Most complications are related to the dysfunction of immature organ systems. In some cases, complications resolve entirely; in others, residual organ dysfunction remains [5,6]. The most common complications in extremely preterm infants are cardiac (patent ductus arteriosus (PDA)), neurological (poor sucking and swallowing reflexes, apneic episodes, IVH, developmental or cognitive delays), ocular (ROP, myopia and/or strabismus), gastrointestinal (feeding intolerance, with increased risk of aspiration, NEC), renal (metabolic acidosis, growth failure), infective (sepsis, meningitis), respiratory (respiratory distress syndrome, respiratory insufficiency of prematurity, chronic lung disease and BPD), and metabolic (hypoglycemia, hyperbilirubinemia, and metabolic bone disease-osteopenia of prematurity) [7][8][9].…”

“…Prematurity is the leading cause of death among newborns and it comes in second among children below five years old, after pneumonia and, at the same time, prematurity increases the risk of serious lifetime disabilities [1,2]. Extremely and very preterm infants are a special cohort of newborns with their inherent functional immaturity and specific pathological conditions which are accompanied by hypoxia, reoxygenation, tissue hypoperfusion, increased risk of oxidative stress [3,4].…”
