摘要：

The purpose of this study is to compare the clinical effectiveness of dopamine (DA) versus norepinephrine (NE) as first-line therapy for sepsis-related hypotension in preterm infants. This is a retrospective cohort study over 10 years at two tertiary neonatal units. Preterm infants born < 35 weeks post-menstrual age (PMA), who received DA or NE as primary therapy for hypotension during sepsis, defined as culture-positive or culture-negative infections or necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), were included. Episode-related mortality (< 7 days from treatment), pre-discharge mortality, and major morbidities among survivors were compared between two groups. Analyses were adjusted using the inverse probability of treatment weighting estimated by propensity score (PS). A total of 156 infants were included, 113 received DA and 43 NE. The mean +/- SD PMA at birth and at treatment for the DA and NE groups were 25.8 +/- 2.3 vs. 25.2 +/- 2.0 weeks and 27.7 +/- 3.0 vs. 27.1 +/- 2.6 weeks, respectively (p > 0.05). Pre-treatment, the NE group had higher mean airway pressure (14 +/- 4 vs. 12 +/- 4 cmH(2)O), heart rate (185 +/- 17 vs. 175 +/- 17 beats per minute), and median (IQR) fraction of inspired oxygen [0.67 (0.42, 1.0) vs. 0.52 (0.32, 0.82)] (p < 0.05 for all). After PS adjustment, NE was associated with lower episode-related mortality [adjusted odds ratio (95% CI) 0.55 (0.33, 0.92)], pre-discharge mortality [0.60 (0.37, 0.97)], post-illness new diagnosis of significant neurologic injury [0.32 (0.13, 0.82)], and subsequent occurrence of NEC/sepsis among the survivors [0.34, (0.18, 0.65)].Conclusion: NE may be more effective than DA for management of sepsis-related hypotension among preterm infants. These data provide a rationale for prospective evaluation of these commonly used agents.
