Cerebral NIRS Profiles During Premedication for Neonatal Intubation

Observational ancillary study of the PRETTINEO study (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01490580) which is a multicenter double blind randomized controlled trial comparing "atropine+propofol" vs "atropine+atracurium+sufentanil" as a premedication prior to endotracheal intubation of the neonate.

Primary outcome:

* Cerebral desaturation defined by a rScO2 delta >20% from the baseline value (before premedication). * Variation of more than 10% of cerebral FTOE (Fractional Tissue Oxygen Extraction) during premedication, calculated from rScO2 and pulse oximetry with the formula FTOE=SaO2 - rScO2/SaO2 .

Hypothesis: "atropine + propofol" compared to "atropine+atracurium+sufentanil" does not increase the frequency of cerebral hypoxemia.

Treatment and study plan

atropine+ propofol

Drug

Atropine bolus: 20 µg/kg Propofol injected over 60 seconds: 1 mg/kg for infants < 1000g - Renewable once 2.5 mg/kg for infants > 1000G - Possible additional dose of 1 mg/kg

atropine + atracurium + sufentanil

Drug

Atropine bolus: 20 µg/kg Atracurium: 0.3 mg/kg- Possible additional dose of 0.1 mg/kg Sufentanil: 0.1 µg/kg for infants < 1000g 0.2 µg/kg for infants > 1000g

Primary outcomes

  1. Cerebral desaturation

    Time frame: from 1 minute before to 60 minutes after the start of premedication

    rScO2 delta >20% from the baseline value (before premedication). rScO2 recording measured by INVOS 1500C 1 minute before the first injection and at 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes after the first drug injection

  2. FTOE (Fractional Tissue Oxygen Extraction)

    Time frame: from 1 minute before to 60 minutes after the start of premedication

    Variation of more than 10% of cerebral FTOE (Fractional Tissue Oxygen Extraction) during premedication. FTOE is calculated from rScO2 and pulse oxymetry (SaO2) with the formula FTOE = SaO2 - rScO2/SaO2. Values will be recorded

    1 minute before the first injection and at 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes after the first drug injection.
