  22. Persistent pulmonary Hypertension

  23. Definition • Persistent Fetal Circulation (PFC) • Pulmonary hypertension resulting in severe hypoxemia secondary to right-to-left shunting through the foramen ovale and ductusarteriosus in the absence of structural heart disease

  24. Typically seen in: • Full term or post term infants • 37-41 weeks gestational age • within the first 12-24 hours after birth.

  25. In Utero • Fetal gas exchange occurs through the placenta instead of the lungs. • PVR > SVR causes blood from the right side of the heart to bypass the lungs through the ductus arteriosus and foramen ovale.

  26. Fetal Shunts • Ductus arteriosus • R-L shunting of blood from pulmonary artery to the aorta bypasses the lungs. • Usually begins to close 24-36 hours after birth. • Foramen ovale • Opening between left and right atria. • Closes when there is an increased volume of blood in the left atrium.

  27. At Birth • First breath • Decrease in PVR • Increase in pulmonary blood flow and PaO2 • Circulatory pressures change with the clamping of the cord. • SVR >PVR allowing lungs to take over gas exchange. • If PVR remains higher blood continues to be shunted and PPHN develops.

  28. Signs of PPHN • Infants with PPHN are born with Apgar scores of 5 or less at 1 and 5 minutes. • Cyanosis may be present at birth or progressively worsen within the first 12-24 hours.

  29. Later developments • Within a few hours after birth • tachypnea • retractions • systolic murmur • mixed acidosis, hypoxemia, hypercapnia • CXR • mild to moderate cardiomegaly • decreased pulmonary vasculature

  30. Pulmonary Vasculature • Pulmonary vascular bed of newborn is extremely sensitive to changes in O2 and CO2. • Pulmonary arteries appear thick walled and fail to relax normally when exposed to vasodilators. • Capillaries begin to build protective muscle. (remodeling)

  31. Diagnosis • Hyperoxia Test • Place infant on 100% oxyhood for 10 minutes. • PaO2 > 100 mmHg parenchymal lung disease • PaO2= 50-100 mmHg parenchymal lung disease or cardiovascular disease • PaO2 < 50 mmHg fixed R-L shunt cyanotic congenital heart disease or PPHN

  32. Hyperoxia Test (cont.) • If fixed R-L shunt • need to get a preductal and postductal arterial blood gases with infant on 100% O2. • Preductal- R radial or temporal artery • Postductal- umbilical artery • If > 15 mmHg difference in PaO2 then ductal shunting • If < 15 mmHg difference in PaO2 then no ductal shunting

  33. Treatment • Goals: • To maintain adequate oxygenation. • These babies are extremely sensitive • Handling them can cause a decrease in PaO2 and hypoxia • Crying also causes a decrease in PaO2 • Try to coordinate care as much as possible • To maintain neutral thermal environment to minimize oxygen consumption.

  34. Mechanical Ventilation • TCPLV (Time cycled pressure limited ventilation) may be used with PPHN. • Want to use low peak inspiratory pressures • Monitor PaO2 and PaCO2 with a transcutaneous monitor

  35. Hyperventilation • Hyperventilation helps promote pulmonary vasodilation • Respiratory Alkalosis- decrease PAP to level below systemic pressures to improve oxygenation by helping to close the shunts • Try to keep pH =7.5 and PaCO2 = 25-30 • Alkalizing agents - sodium bicarbonate or THAM

  36. Hyperventilation (cont.) • Babies often become agitated when they are hyperventilated • May need to administer muscle relaxants and sedation • usually given pancuronium and morphine • pancuronium- q 1-3 hours IV at 0.1-0.2 mg/kg • morphine- continuous infusion 10 micrograms/kg/hr

  37. Nitric Oxide (NO) • Potent pulmonary vasodilator • decrease pulmonary artery pressure • increase PaO2 • Does not cause systemic hypotension • NO more effective in PPHN babies without lung disease • Baby must be weaned slowly off NO or may have rebound hypertension

  38. Effects of NO • NO is metabolized to nitrogen dioxide (NO2) which can cause acute lung injury. • NO2 is potentially toxic. • NO reacts with hemoglobin to form methemoglobin.

  39. Outcome • PPHN may last anywhere from a few days to several weeks. • Mortality rate is 20-50%. • Decreased by HFOV and NO • Decreased by ECMO • Babies treated with hyperventilation may develop sensorineural hearing loss.
