Feeding premature babies

The article presents our own experience of using the drug "Palivizumab" (Synagis) for passive immunoprophylaxis of ARVI, complicated by frequent episodes of obstructive bronchitis or pneumonia in young children with bronchopulmonary dysplasia. The justification for the use of Synagis is the undoubted fact of the presence of respiratory syncytial virus in the structure of ARVI pathogens, which served as a recommendation for the use of the drug in 50 countries around the world and in most countries “Palivizumab” was included in the standards for the prevention of RSV infection.

Experience with the drug Palivizumab (Sinagis) for passive immunization RSV-infected at bronchopulmonary dysplasia in infants

The article provides a personal experience with the drug palivizumab (sinagis) for passive immunization of SARS, complicated by frequent episodes of obstructive bronchitis or pneumonia in infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia. The rationale for the use of sinagis is undoubtedly the presence in the structure of the SARS causative of respiratory syncytial virus, which was the recommendation for the use of the drug in 50 countries around the world and in most of palivizumab agents entered the standards of prevention RSV - infection.

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a chronic disease of the immature lungs that develops in newborns, mainly very premature infants, after respiratory distress syndrome and/or pneumonia in the early neonatal period. With this disease, the bronchioles and lung tissue are affected: in some areas of the lung, the healthy structure is replaced by connective tissue and fibrosis develops, in others, swelling of the lung tissue occurs, resulting in emphysema. The alternation of areas of fibrosis and emphysema creates a characteristic pathomorphological and clinical picture of bronchopulmonary dysplasia. Often, pulmonary vessels are involved in areas of fibrosis: damage to the lung tissue occurs due to impaired oxygen saturation of the tissue and release of carbon dioxide. The frequency of BPD depends on the child’s body weight at birth: with a weight of 500-1000 g, the disease occurs in 33-64% of children, with a weight of 1000-1500 g - in 3-6%, with a weight of more than 1500 g - in 1-2%. In rare cases, BPD also develops in children born at term. Predisposing factors to the development of BPD in full-term infants, as well as in premature infants, are mechanical ventilation during meconium aspiration, pneumonia, or surgery. A feature of the clinical picture of BPD is respiratory failure in newborns who are on mechanical ventilation or after mechanical ventilation, when children receive oxygen through a mask for a long time. Cough, wheezing, shortness of breath, i.e. signs of pulmonary obstruction often persist despite spontaneous breathing. The severity of BPD is determined by the state of oxygen dependence at 36 weeks of postconceptional age for children under 32 weeks of age or at 56 days of life for children born after 32 weeks of gestation. The most common manifestation of exacerbation of BPD in the form of obstructive syndrome is observed during acute respiratory viral infection, among the causative agents of which the respiratory syncytial virus selectively affects this contingent of children. Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection is a significantly more common cause of death in children in their first year of life than influenza virus (1). RSV infection can be life-threatening in infants under 12 weeks of age, premature infants, infants with congenital heart defects, and those with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (2). Today there is an effective method for preventing RSV infection: this is passive immunoprophylaxis in children at high risk by introducing antibodies to the RSV virus into the child’s body to prevent severe forms of infection caused by RSV. Palivizumab (Synagis) is the world's first drug with proven effectiveness for passive immunoprophylaxis of severe forms of RSV infection in children from high-risk groups (3). The mechanism of action of Synagis is the suppression of the activity of the F protein, which ensures the penetration of the virus into the cell. In most countries (there are more than 50), where the use of Synagis is recommended, it is included in the standards for the prevention of RSV infection.

17 children from 3 to 16 months of life were under observation: 16 children were born premature at a gestation period of 28-32 weeks and weighing 760-1720 g. One child was born from a full-term pregnancy with multiple malformations that were compatible with life and required resuscitation care. All children in the neonatal period were on mechanical ventilation. These children were diagnosed with “Bronchopulmonary dysplasia” according to the criteria of the modern domestic working classification of bronchopulmonary diseases in children 2008 (Moscow) already during their stay in the intensive care unit for newborns or in the department of the second stage of nursing at the 1st Children's City Hospital Kazan. Moderate course was observed in 11 (64.8%), severe - in 6 (35.2%). Among the concomitant pathologies in all premature children, the following were identified: retinopathy of prematurity - children were examined with a retinal camera, consulted with an ophthalmologist and, if necessary, they underwent surgical correction; cerebral pathology, mainly of hypoxic or mixed origin, of varying severity, but without severe, incurable complications. Children with BPD were admitted to the pulmonology department with acute bronchitis, bronchiolitis or pneumonia. Before this admission, each child had several episodes of acute respiratory viral infection complicated by obstructive bronchitis or pneumonia. A thorough analysis of the medical history, the results of clinical, instrumental and laboratory examinations did not exclude complicated RSV infection in the observed patients, which served as a rationale for passive immunoprophylaxis of its relapses. For this purpose, 9 patients with BPD, after the elimination of the acute bronchopulmonary process clinic, received the drug "Synagis": 1 child - 4 injections, one child - 3 injections, 6 children - 2 injections each and one child - one dose. The choice of "Synagis" was determined by the severity of BPD, the age of the child, the number of episodes of ARVI and its complications and the time of year - from November to March inclusive. "Synagis" was administered intramuscularly into the outer lateral region of the thigh, a single dose was 15 mg per 1 kg of body weight with an interval of 1 month. For repeated injections, children were admitted to a day hospital for 2 days: on the first day they underwent a clinical examination and examination; in the absence of contraindications, Synagis was administered and the child was observed for another day. No early side effects were observed. During the month following the introduction of Synagis, contact with the child’s parents was carried out via mobile communications: no complications were identified in any case. Observation of children who received passive immunoprophylaxis of RSV infection since November 2011. to June 2012 inclusive, showed that only one child had a relapse of ARVI with obstruction syndrome.

The study showed the undoubted clinical effectiveness of the use of the drug "Palivizumab" (Synagis) for the purpose of passive immunoprophylaxis of recurrent acute respiratory viral infections and, in particular, RSV infection in children with BPD. This contributed not only to a reduction in the number of episodes of exacerbation of the disease, but also, obviously, to a reduction in the risk of chronicity of bronchopulmonary pathology in young children. Continued follow-up of patients until the age of three will contribute to a final judgment about the development of chronic lung disease or its prevention in children with BPD who received Synagis.

History of the department In the mid-90s of the last century, a voluntary immunoprophylaxis office was first organized at the Institute's clinic, in which, along with calendar ones, non-calendar vaccinations of an ever-expanding range were carried out.

In 2000, a vaccination room was created on the basis of the consultative and diagnostic department. Since 2007, the office was transformed into a department that received the status of a Family Vaccine Prevention Center, the main focus of which was the immunization of children with chronic pathologies. In 2022, the Family Vaccine Prevention Center was renamed the Department of Vaccination Prevention for Children with Health Disabilities and Family Vaccination.

The staff of the department includes 6 senior researchers from the National Medical Research Center for Children's Health, 7 pediatric vaccinologists, as well as 3 medical registrars of the department.

Areas of scientific activity Every year, the staff of the department issues methodological recommendations on current issues of immunization. Understanding the importance of informing the population about family vaccination issues, the department carries out active scientific and educational work. Topics of scientific work: “Tactics for managing children with irregular vaccination schedules against viral hepatitis B”, “Improving methods of vaccine prevention in children.” The specialists of the department carry out regular work to assess the safety and effectiveness of vaccination of children outside the national calendar, and develop individual vaccination regimens by assessing antibody responses.

Information for parents of premature babies born before 35 weeks gestational age

Dear parents, Your baby was born premature.
From the first minutes of his life, he is monitored and the necessary assistance is provided by experienced specialists: anesthesiologists-resuscitators and neonatologists. Their main task is to save the life of your child and try to prevent possible serious diseases that arise due to the immaturity of the body at the time of premature birth. Such diseases of premature newborns also include pathological development of the eyes - retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). ROP is one of the main causes of blindness, low vision and visual impairment in children from an early age in all developed countries of the world. The main cause of ROP is the premature birth of a child: the earlier the child is born and with a lower body weight, the more often he develops retinopathy and the more severe it is. Thus, the incidence of ROP among children with a birth weight of less than 1000 g reaches 90%. In addition, if a child has concomitant diseases from other organs, the severity of retinopathy is aggravated.

Thus, premature babies need a mandatory and timely examination by an ophthalmologist!

All premature babies normally have signs of eye immaturity and the process of retinal formation is not complete. After the birth of a child, the retina can develop in two ways: 1) normal growth of retinal vessels, or 2) pathological - development of ROP. Using modern examination techniques, an ophthalmologist identifies all changes in the maturing retina in a premature baby.

The first examination by an ophthalmologist of a premature baby is carried out, regardless of the location of the child, at 3-4 weeks of his life, and for extremely premature babies (born at 22-26 weeks of gestational age) at 30-31 weeks from conception. As a rule, during this period only signs of immaturity of the child’s eyes are revealed, but sometimes the first signs of ROP can be observed, which in most cases appear at 4-6 weeks of a premature baby’s life.
