Résumé

Early treatment with caffeine in the delivery room (DR) has been proposed to decrease the need for mechanical ventilation (MV) by limiting episodes of apnoea and improving respiratory mechanics in preterm infants. Our aim was to verify the hypothesis that intravenous or enteral administration of caffeine can be performed in the preterm infant in the DR. Infants with 25 Nineteen patients were treated with intravenous caffeine and 19 with enteral caffeine. In all patients the procedure was successfully performed. Peak blood level of caffeine 60 ± 15 min after administration in the DR was found to be below the therapeutic range (5 µg/mL) in 25 % of samples and above the therapeutic range in 3%. Blood level of caffeine 60 ± 15 min before administration of the second dose was found to be below the therapeutic range in 18% of samples. Intravenous and enteral administration of caffeine can be performed in the DR without interfering with infants' postnatal assistance. Some patients did not reach the therapeutic range, raising the question of which dose is the most effective to prevent MV. ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT04044976; EudraCT number 2018-003626-91.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Early treatment with caffeine in the delivery room (DR) has been proposed to decrease the need for mechanical ventilation (MV) by limiting episodes of apnoea and improving respiratory mechanics in preterm infants. Our aim was to verify the hypothesis that intravenous or enteral administration of caffeine can be performed in the preterm infant in the DR.
METHODS METHODS
Infants with 25
RESULTS RESULTS
Nineteen patients were treated with intravenous caffeine and 19 with enteral caffeine. In all patients the procedure was successfully performed. Peak blood level of caffeine 60 ± 15 min after administration in the DR was found to be below the therapeutic range (5 µg/mL) in 25 % of samples and above the therapeutic range in 3%. Blood level of caffeine 60 ± 15 min before administration of the second dose was found to be below the therapeutic range in 18% of samples.
CONCLUSIONS CONCLUSIONS
Intravenous and enteral administration of caffeine can be performed in the DR without interfering with infants' postnatal assistance. Some patients did not reach the therapeutic range, raising the question of which dose is the most effective to prevent MV.
