Study the Effect of Blood Transfusion on Oxidant-antioxidant Status in Term and Near-term Neonates

Primary aim is to evaluate the effect of blood transfusion on oxidant-antioxidant status in premature neonates. Secondary aim is to assess the effect of the age of transfused red blood cells on the biological markers of oxidative stress.

About this study

Oxidant-antioxidant status will be assessed by measuring total antioxidant capacity (TAC) and malondialdehyde (MDA), as well as antioxidant minerals, in 65 term and near-term neonates.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

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

Inclusion criteria

  • Premature neonates ≤36 weeks in need for blood transfusion.

Exclusion criteria

  • Extremely low birth weight neonates(<1000gm birth weight )
  • Recipient of blood transfusion before enrollment in the study.
  • Neonates planned for exchange transfusion .
