Outcomes for critical conditions in newborns depending on the time of interhospital transportation

Abstract

This article analyzes the influence of interhospital transportation duration of newborns in critical state on the close outcome. The features of intensive care measures, the frequency of seizures, bronchopulmonary dysplasia and open arterial duct were studied regarding the age at which an infant was admitted to a neonatal ICU in a hospital of III level. It was found that transportation of critically ill infants at the age of one day or three days of life was associated with high risk of complications in the neonatal period. It was shown that the optimal time for interhospital transportation of a newborn baby to an intensive care unit of a hospital of III level is the second day after birth.

In this case, the cardiac surgical team must be prepared to perform an emergency operation immediately after birth.…”
