Neonatal Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation: Associations between Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy, Thrombocytopenia, and Outcomes.
Blood Purification 2024 March 2
INTRODUCTION: The incidence of thrombocytopenia in neonates receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) with and without concurrent continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) and associated complications have not been well described. The primary aims of the current study were to (1) characterize thrombocytopenia in neonates receiving ECMO (including treated concurrently with CRRT) and (2) evaluate risk factors (including CRRT utilization) associated with severe thrombocytopenia. In a planned exploratory secondary aim, we explored the association of severe thrombocytopenia with outcomes in neonates receiving ECMO.
METHODS: We conducted a retrospective single-center chart review of neonates who received ECMO 07/01/14 - 03/01/20 and evaluated associations between CRRT, severe thrombocytopenia (platelet count <50,000/mm3), and outcomes (ECMO duration, length of stay, and survival).
RESULTS: Fifty-two neonates received ECMO; 35 (67%) received concurrent CRRT. Severe thrombocytopenia occurred in 27 (52%) neonates overall and in 21 (60%) neonates who received concurrent CRRT. Underlying diagnosis, ECMO mode, care unit, and moderate/severe hemolysis differed between those who did and did not receive CRRT. CRRT-receivers experienced shorter hospital stays than CRRT non-receivers, but ECMO duration, length of intensive care unit (ICU) stay, and survival did not differ between groups. CRRT receipt was associated with severe thrombocytopenia. Exploratory classification and regression tree (CART) analysis suggests CRRT use, birthweight, and ICU location are all predictors of interest for severe thrombocytopenia.
CONCLUSIONS: In our cohort, CRRT use during ECMO was associated with severe thrombocytopenia, and patients who received ECMO with CRRT experienced shorter hospital stays than those who did not receive CRRT. Exploratory CART analysis suggests CRRT use, birthweight, and ICU location are all predictors for severe thrombocytopenia and warrant further investigations in larger studies.
