摘要

Background

Delayed cord clamping (DCC) occurs in most preterm births.

Objective

Evaluate the association of DCC with acute kidney injury (AKI) and two-year kidney outcomes.

Methods

Secondary analysis of the Preterm Erythropoietin Neuroprotection Trial of neonates born 24^0/7 to 27^6/7 weeks gestation. AKI and two year kidney outcomes were compared in neonates with DCC ( ≥ 30 s after delivery) to those with early cord clamping (ECC) (<30 s after delivery).

Results

The incidence and severity of AKI did not differ between the DCC and ECC groups (aOR 1.17 [95%CI 0.76–1.80]). At two years corrected age, DCC was associated with a 4.5-fold increased adjusted odds of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <90 mL/min/1.73m². No significant associations were noted between DCC and albuminuria or elevated blood pressure.

Conclusions

DCC was not associated with decreased neonatal AKI, but was associated with higher adjusted odds of eGFR <90 mL/min/1.73m² at two years.
