Abstract

Introduction: Respiratory distress is the most frequent cause of admission to the NICU. Immediate differentiation between cardiac and non-cardiac causes could influence the course of treatment. This study aimed to evaluate the necessity of ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY in evaluation of neonates with respiratory distress in NICU.Materials and Methods: This retrospective study recruited 349 neonates admitted to the NICU of Izadi and Hazrat-e-Masoumeh hospitals in the city of Qom in 2013 due to respiratory distress. Data was collected and analyzed by chi-square test and t-test in SPSS.Results: Sepsis was the most common cause of respiratory distress, among the extra-pulmonary causes which accounted for 15% of the causes of respiratory distress. ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY was performed for 55.3% of neonates. Among cardiac causes of respiratory distress, large and very large PDAs (27.3%), large ventricular septal defect (22.7%) and dTGA (18.2%) were the most common causes. Gender of the infant, type of delivery, season of the birth, length of hospital stay and the 5-minute Apgar score were not significantly different among cardiac and non-cardiac causes, but gestational age and infant’s age at admission were significantly higher in babies with cardiac diseases.Conclusions: It seems being full term and the age of the infant should also be considered for decision-making about ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY in addition to the current criteria: respiratory distress and murmurs.
