ABSTRACT
Background: Being born preterm implies comorbidities, among them
the risk of intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH). The use of sodium bicarbonate
has been linked to the presence of IVH. The main purpose of this
study was to determine if the infusion of sodium bicarbonate during the
fi rst 24 hours increases the risk of IVH in preterm infants.
Methods: Our study is a cohort; we analyzed the fi les of 160 patients
and divided them into two groups: one in which sodium bicarbonate was
not used and another in which it was; this latter group was subdivided
into two considering if the use was therapeutic of prophylactic.
Results: In our total group of patients 10 % presented IVH; had a mean
weight of 1500 g and 31 weeks of gestational age. The incidence of
IVH was identical between both groups, although patients in which bicarbonate
was used were more premature, unstable, and in worse clinical
conditions.
Conclusions: Our data indicate the need of large scale studies to determine
if the clinical benefi ts of the use of sodium bicarbonate outweigh
the risk of IVH.
