NEURodevelopmental Outcome After Persistent Pulmonary Hypertension Of the Newborn

Neonatal pulmonary hypertension is a rare but serious condition resulting from a lack of adaptation to extra-uterine life in some newborns. In the short term, the risk of death requires rapid and appropriate management of this transient pathology.

In the long term, these newborns present a greater brain vulnerability, a consequence of the pathology itself with cerebral hypoxia but also invasive and aggressive therapies. Although current scientific evidence indicates a correlation with the existence of neurological developmental disorders, the understanding of the long-term neurological outcome of these babies remains poorly documented. Better knowledge of remote neuro-psychomotor development of the critical period

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • All parenting authority holders of children aged 1 to 5 years, born after 34 weeks of amenorrhea and having been cared for neonatal PAH in paediatric resuscitation

Exclusion criteria

  • Holders of parental authority who cannot answer the questionnaire because they do not speak French.
  • Opposition of one of the two holders of parental authority
  • Minor parental authority holders
  • Holders of parental authority under safeguarding of justice, guardianship or guardianship
  • Newborns with neonatal PAH with an associated diagnosis of diaphragmatic hernia or cyanogenic congenital heart disease
  • Newborns with neonatal PAH not treated with nitrogen monoxide

Treatment and study plan

Ages & Stages Questionnaires®, Third Edition (ASQ3)

Other

Investigators will propose to parents of children hospitalized for the treatment of persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn a hetero-evaluation via the validated ASQ questionnaire to analyze neuro-psychomotor development.

Primary outcomes

  1. Describe the association between the occurrence of neuro-psychomotor developmental disorders and initial management in resuscitation.

    Time frame: Between one and 5 years after hospitalization in resuscitation.

    Parents will complete ASQ3. The investigators will consider neuro-psychomotor developmental disorders in children with pathological ASQ questionnaire on at least 2 items.
