Study of the Effect of Hydrocortisone Administered for the Prevention of Pulmonary Bronchodysplasia (PREMILOC Trial) on the Determinants of Systemic Blood Pressure in Children (PREMILOCAP)
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The risk of Arterial Hypertension (HTA) is increased in very premature infants and hydrocortisone administered in the neonatal period could modify this risk.
The main objective is to assess whether the administration of hydrocortisone in the perinatal period in children born prematurely is associated with an increase in Pulse Wave Velocity (PWV) by comparing the future of children included in the PREMILOC trial (hydrocortisone versus placebo) at the age of 7-13 years. The primary endpoint will be the carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity in m/s.

Detailed Description
Descriptive cross-sectional study of the subjects included in the double-blind, monocentric randomized controlled trial (children included and followed up at the Robert Debré hospital in the PREMILOC trial): follow-up of these children approximately 10 years later on vascular parameters.
Study Design
Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Hydrocortisone During the PREMILOC trial, patients received hydrocortisone (0.5mg/kg/12h for 7 days and 0.5mg/kg/24h for 3 days). |
Diagnostic Test: blood pressure measurement
Completion of the physical activity and quality of life questionnaire (PedSQL adapted to the age of the child), measurement of weight and height; Measurement of VOP (Pulse wave velocity), AI (increase index) and ECG (electro cardiogram) collection at rest lying down; Stimulation test by slow breathing at 6 cycles/min for three minutes; Continuation of the measurements in a standing position for 5 minutes; Installation of blood pressure holter (MAPA) which will be kept for 24 hours and then returned by post.

Placebo Comparator: Placebo During the PREMILOC trial, patients received placebo (0.5mg/kg/12h for 7 days and 0.5mg/kg/24h for 3 days). |
