Sayın Editör; Yenidoğan yoğun bakıma en çok yatış nedeni olan TTN ve uzun yatışa neden olabilecek faktörleri araştırdığım bu yazımın tarafınızdan değerlendirileceği şimdiden teşekkür ederim saygılarımla
Objective: The aim of this study was to determine risk factors to predict the duration of tachypnea in the management of infants hospitalized with transient tachypnea of newborns (TTN).
Methods: This prospective study included newborns diagnosed with TTN separated into two groups of those with tachypnea lasting <72 hrs (Group 1) or >72 hrs (Group 2). The two groups were compared in respect of clinical and laboratory findings.
Results: The newborns in Group 1 were observed to have a lower birth weight and lower gestational age, and higher rate of SGA. These infants were determined to have a higher rate of antenatal steroid administration, longer duration of ventilation, and longer hospital stay. The cord blood gas oxygen levels and TSH levels were lower, and the hemogram parameters of WBC and PCT levels were significantly higher in Group 1.
Conclusions: Assessment of cord blood gas oxygen levels may be useful in predicting the clinical course of TTN.
