Premature birth Classification and external resources ICD-10 O60.1, P07.3 ICD-9 644, 765 DiseasesDB 10589 MedlinePlus 001562 eMedicine ped/1889 Premature birth also known as preterm birth is the birth of a baby before the standard period of pregnancy is completed. In most systems of human pregnancy, prematurity is considered to occur when the baby is born sooner than 37 weeks after the beginning of the last menstrual period LMP. The opposite condition, postmature birth, is defined as birth more than 42 weeks after the LMP. Contents 1 Overview 2 Factors 3 Prevention of preterm birth 4 Symptoms and indications 5 Maternal treatments 6 Newborn complications 7 Treatment measures for a premature infant 8 Records 9 See also 10 References 11 External links Overview The standard length of a human gestation is 266 days. However, for convenience most timing is based on the LMP, with conception being assumed to occur approximately 14 days after the LMP, making a standard term pregnancy 280 days or 40 weeks. Premature or preterm birth the babies are called premies is defined medically as childbirth occurring earlier than 37 completed weeks of pregnancy. Approximately 12 percent of babies in the United States - or 1 in 8 - are born prematurely each year.1 In 2003, more than 490,000 babies in the U.S. were born prematurely. Worldwide rates of prematurity are more difficult to obtain as the lack of widespread professional obstetric care in developing regions makes determination of gestational age less reliable. The World Health Organization instead tracks rates of low birth weight, which occurred in 16.5 percent of births in less developed regions in 2000.2 It is estimated that one-third of these low birth weight deliveries are due to premature delivery. The shorter the term of pregnancy, the greater the risks of complications. Infants born prematurely have an increased risk of death in the first year of life infant mortality, with most of that occurring in the first month of life neonatal mortality. Worldwide, prematurity accounts for 10% of neonatal mortality, or around 500,000 deaths per year.3 In the U.S. where many infections and other causes of neonatal death have been markedly reduced, prematurity is the leading cause of neonatal mortality at 25%.4 Prematurely born infants are also at greater risk for developing serious health problems such as cerebral palsy, chronic lung disease, gastrointestinal problems, mental retardation, vision or hearing loss5 and are more susceptible to developing depression as teenagers.6 Although there are several known risk factors for prematurity see below, nearly half of all premature births have no known cause. When conditions permit, doctors may attempt to stop premature labor, so that the pregnancy can have a chance to continue to full term, thereby increasing the baby's chances of health and survival. However, there is currently no reliable means to stop or prevent preterm labor in all cases. In fact, the rate of preterm births in the United States has increased 30% in the past two decades.7 In developed countries premature infants are usually cared for in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit NICU. The physicians who specialize in the care of very sick or premature babies are known as neonatologists. In the NICU, premature babies are kept under radiant warmers or in incubators also called isolettes, which are bassinets enclosed in plastic with climate control equipment designed to keep them warm and limit their exposure to germs. Modern neonatal intensive care involves sophisticated measurement of temperature, respiration, cardiac function, oxygenation, and brain activity. Treatments may include fluids and nutrition through intravenous catheters, oxygen supplementation, mechanical ventilation support, and medications. In developing countries where advanced equipment and even electricity may not be available or reliable, simple measures such as kangaroo care skin to skin warming, encouraging breastfeeding, and basic infection control measures can significantly reduce preterm morbidity and mortality. Ex-premies is the term given to preterm infants born before the normal 37 weeks gestation.8 Factors There are many different factors that may contribute to a preterm birth. Factors related to maternal disease or condition that have been shown to increase the risk of preterm birth, with associated odds ratio OR when known include: Chromosomal abnormalities; Dr. Aaron Caughey, a perinatologist at UCSF, states: ...it's important to note that the majority of miscarriages - up to 80 percent - happen due to chromosomal abnormalities that have nothing to do with the mother's behavior. The last thing women who have had miscarriages need to do is blame themselves.... source: San Francisco Chronicle high blood pressure OR = 4.069 pre-eclampsia OR = 4.010 age 35 OR = 1.811 age 18 OR = 3.411 short cervix9 the strongest predictor of premature birth121314 maternal diabetes15 anxiety16 periodontal disease OR = 4.4517 Whether or not urinary tract infections directly cause preterm birth is uncertain, however, it is known that urinary tract infections increase pre-eclampsia, which as stated above, increases the risk of preterm birth. Sexually transmitted disease STD, Beta Strep, kidney disease, and uterine infections are also suspected of increasing the risk of preterm birth. Adequate maternal nutrition is important to fetal development and a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol may help reduce the risk of a preterm delivery.18 Factors related to pregnancy history that have been shown to increase the risk of preterm birth include: prior preterm delivery OR = 2.79 prior induced abortion OR = 1.6 antepartum hemorrhage / vaginal bleeding during labor prior miscarriage9 Multiple pregnancies twins, triplets, etc. are another significant factor in preterm birth. The March of Dimes Multicenter Prematurity and Prevention Study found that 54% of twins were delivered preterm vs. 9.6% of singleton births.19 Women who have tried to conceive for more than a year before getting pregnant are at a higher risk for premature birth. A recent study done by Dr. Olga Basso of the University of Aarhus in Denmark and Dr. Donna Baird of the U.S. National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences suggests that women who had difficulty conceiving were about 40 percent higher risk of preterm birth than those who had conceived easily. Finally, the use of tobacco and alcohol during pregnancy also increases the chance of preterm delivery. Tobacco is the most commonly abused drug during pregnancy and also contributes significantly to low birth weight delivery.2021 Prevention of preterm birth Recent research has identified possible methods to prevent preterm birth, pre-eclampsia/eclampsia, premature rupture of membranes, and preterm labor. These include self-care methods to reduce infections, nutritional and psychological interventions, and the control of preterm birth risk factors e.g. working long hours while standing on feet, carbon monoxide exposure, domestic abuse, and other factors. Injection with a form of progesterone 17 alpha-hydroxyprogesterone caproate although the safety of this treatment for the fetus has been questioned by the FDA and its expert panel due to an associated increase in miscarriage and fetal death22, the use of vaginal progesterone1314 ,taking fish oil supplementscitation needed, and self-monitoring vaginal PH followed by yogurt treatment or Clindamycin treatment if the PH was too high all seem to be effective at reducing the risk of preterm birth.2324 This research is quite new; however, doctors using these newer strategies have obtained preterm birth rates as low as 1 to 2%, compared to the 11 to 16% currently in the US.citation needed Although short term use of folic acid may not have an effect, genetic variation in folate metabolism affects prematurity, and a recent report suggests that usage by mothers for more than a year before birth can reduce premature birth by 50 to 70 percent.2526 Symptoms and indications The symptoms of an imminent premature birth include: Four or more uterine contractions in one hour, before 37 weeks' gestation. A watery discharge from the vagina, which may indicate premature rupture of the membranes surrounding the baby. Pressure in the pelvis or the sensation that the baby has dropped. Menstrual cramps or abdominal pain. Pain or rhythmic tightening in lower abdomen or back. Vaginal spotting or bleeding. Maternal treatments There are two tactics that can be used to deal with a potential premature birth: delay the arrival of birth as much as possible, or prepare the prospectively premature fetus for arrival. Both of these tactics may be used simultaneously. Delaying the premature birth from occurring is typically the most favored option. This gives the fetus or fetuses as much time as possible to mature in the womb. There are a number of techniques that can be used to try to accomplish this. The first resort is usually complete bed rest. Maintaining a horizontal position reduces pressure on the cervix, which may allow it to stay lengthened longer, and avoiding unnecessary movement may reduce uterine irritation, which can lead to contractions. Likewise, proper nutrition and especially hydration are important: dehydration can lead to premature uterine contractions. In a hospital setting, a drug-free IV drip may be used to try to stop premature labor simply by improving the mother's hydration. Lastly, there are anti-contraction medications tocolytics, such as ritodrine, fenoterol, nifedipine and atosiban, although these do not appear to have more than a short-term effect on delaying delivery. Premature birth can not always be prevented. Severely premature infants may have underdeveloped lungs, because they are not yet producing their own surfactant. This can lead directly to Respiratory Distress Syndrome, also called hyaline membrane disease, in the neonate. To try to reduce the risk of this outcome, pregnant mothers with threatened premature delivery prior to 34 weeks are often administered at least one course of glucocorticoids, a steroid that crosses the placental barrier and stimulates growth in the lungs of the fetus. Typical glucocorticoids that would be administered in this context are betamethasone or dexamethasone, often when the fetus has reached viability at 23 weeks. In cases where premature birth is imminent, a second rescue course of steroids may be administered 12 to 24 hours before the anticipated birth. There is no research consensus on the efficacy and side-effects of a second course of steroids, but the consequences of RDS are so severe that a second course is often viewed as worth the risk. Research reported at the 2008 conference of the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine suggests that administration of magnesium sulfate Epsom salt to women just before premature birth can cut the rate of cerebral palsy in half. While the compound is cheap and safe, it may make mothers and infants groggy, and details are pending scientific publication.25 Newborn complications Premature infants show physical signs of their prematurity and may develop other problems as well. These include, but are not limited to, the following: Neurologic Apnea of prematurity Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy HIE Intracranial hemorrhage Retinopathy of prematurity ROP Developmental disability Cardiovascular Patent ductus arteriosus PDA Respiratory Respiratory distress syndrome RDS or IRDS previously called Hyaline membrane disease Chronic lung disease previously called bronchopulmonary dysplasia or BPD Gastrointestinal / metabolic Hypoglycemia Feeding difficulties Rickets of prematurity Hypocalcemia Inguinal hernia Necrotizing enterocolitis NEC Hematologic Anemia of prematurity Thrombocytopenia Hyperbilirubinemia jaundice Infectious Sepsis Urinary tract infection 6 The earliest gestational age at which the infant has at least a 50% chance of survival is referred to as the limit of viability. As NICU care has improved over the last 40 years, viability has reduced to approximately 24 weeks,2728 although rare survivors have been documented as early as 21 weeks.7 Though this date is controversial as gestation in this case was measured from the date of conception rather than the date of her mother's last menstrual period gestation appear 2 weeks less than if calculated by the more common method29. As risk of brain damage and developmental delay is significant at that threshold even if the infant survives, there are ethical controversies over the aggressiveness of the care rendered to such infants. The limit of viability has also become a factor in the abortion debate. Some of the complications related to prematurity are not apparent until years after the birth. For example, children who were born prematurely especially if born less than 1,500 grams have a higher likelihood of having behavioral problems, delays in motor development, and difficulties in school. Specifically these problems can be described as being within the executive domain and have been speculated to arise due to decreased myelinization of the frontal lobes.30 Throughout life they are more likely to require services provided by physical therapists, occupational therapists, or speech therapists. Treatment measures for a premature infant The required care for premature infants differs greatly depending on the child's gestational age, birth weight, and overall maturity. Measures common among extremely premature infants include: Placing the infant in a warmer or isolette. Premature infants are easily susceptible to cold-stress or hypothermia and infection, and preventing these is a key priority. Infants under 32 weeks typically do not produce enough surfactant in their lungs to enable them to breathe on their own. In these cases, surfactant will be administered to assist them. A breathing tube may be inserted in the infant's trachea, and a ventilator and supplemental oxygen may be used. Adequate nutrition, via a feeding tube or, in extremely premature infants, intravenously. If a feeding tube is used, expressed breast milk from the mother or a breastmilk bank can be used, which lowers the risk of infections such as necrotizing enterocolitis. Records James Elgin Gill born on 20 May 1987 in Ottawa, Canada was the earliest premature baby in the world. He was 128 days premature 21 weeks and 5 days gestation and weighed 1 lb. 6 oz. 624 g. He survived and is quite healthy.3132 Amillia Taylor is also often cited as the most-premature baby.33 She was born on 24 October 2006 in Miami, Florida, at 21 weeks and 6 days gestation.34 Though this report has created some confusion her gestation was measured from the date of conception through IVF rather than the date of her mother's last menstrual period making her appear 2 weeks younger than if gestation was calculated by the more common method35. At birth she was 9 inches 23 cm long and weighed 10 ounces 283 grams.33 She suffered digestive and respiratory problems, together with a brain hemorrhage. She was discharged from the Baptist Children's Hospital on 20 February 2007.33 The record for the smallest premature baby to survive was held for some time by Madeline Mann, who was born at 26 weeks weighing 9.9 oz 280 g and 9.5 inches 24 cm long.36 This record was broken in September 2004 by Rumaisa Rahman, who was born in the same hospital37 at 25 weeks gestation. At birth she was eight inches 20 cm long and weighed 244 grams 8.6 ounces. Her twin sister was also a small baby, weighing 563 grams 1 pound 4 ounces at birth. During pregnancy their mother had suffered from pre-eclampsia, which causes dangerously high blood pressure putting the baby into distress and leading to birth by caesarean section. The larger twin left the hospital at the end of December, while the smaller remained there until 10 February 2005 by which time her weight had increased to 1.18 kg 2 pounds 10 ounces.38 Generally healthy, the twins had to undergo laser eye surgery to correct visual problems, a common occurrence among premature babies. Historical figures who were born prematurely include Johannes Kepler born in 1571 at 7 months gestation, Isaac Newton born in 1643, small enough to fit into a quart mug, according to his mother, Winston Churchill born in 1874 at 7 months gestation, and Anna Pavlova born in 1885 at 7 months gestation.39 See also Macrophage-activation syndrome WalkAmerica an annual walking-for-charity event that has raised more than $1.7 billion since 1970 to prevent premature birth References ^ Martin JA, Hamilton BE, Sutton PD, Ventura SJ, Menacker F, Kirmeyer S.
