Résumé

Limited data exists regarding prostanoid (PGI2) use in critically ill patients with pulmonary hypertension. (PH) in the pediatric cardiac intensive care unit (CICU) setting. Single center, retrospective study of patients with diagnosis of PH who received continuous PGI2 and were admitted to CICU from January/2015 to April/2022. Data collected included patient demographics and clinical characteristics including diagnosis, etiology of PH, vasoactive and ventilatory support, length of stay, and survival. Type, initial, maximum, and final dose of PGI2 as well as hemodynamic data was obtained. Data reported as mean ± standard deviation. Significance taken p value < 0.05. 24 patients received PGI2 therapy at a mean age of 3.1 years, range (0-16.6 years). PGI2 was in the form of IV epoprostenol in 12 patients, IV treprostinil in 6, and SQ treprostinil in 6 patients. Mean initial dose was 2.79 ng/kg/min, max dose 18.75 ng/kg/min, and mean duration of therapy was 38.5 days. At PGI2 initiation, 21 (87.5%) were on vasoactive infusions, 19 (79.2%) mechanically ventilated (MV), and 6 (25%) were on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). The in-hospital mortality rate was 37.5% (n = 9). Patients MV and on ECMO support had higher risk of death (p = 0.04, and < 0.01, respectively). PGI2 therapy was tolerated in approximately 50% of patients with the most common side effect being hypotension leading to discontinuation in 1/3rd of patients. Ongoing evaluation of the benefits of PGI2 for patients in the CICU setting will help better identify patient selection, type, and dosing of PGI2.
