It is not known whether very preterm infants born to preeclamptic women have worse outcomes than those delivered preterm for other causes.
We assessed the association between preeclampsia (PE) and the neonatal morbidity and mortality of very preterm infants.
Over 2015 and 2016, 11 collaborating Portuguese level III NICUs prospectively enrolled a cohort of mothers with or without PE who delivered liveborn premature infants between 24 and 30 completed weeks of gestation. Data on neonatal morbidities were collected and their association to PE was assessed.
The final cohort consisted of 410 mothers who delivered 494 preterm infants. Infants from PE mothers weighed less than those of non-PE mothers (819 ± 207 g vs. 989 ± 256 g, p < 0.0001). Incidences of respiratory distress syndrome, patent ductus arteriosus, early and nosocomial sepsis, necrotizing enterocolitis, pneumonia, meningitis, retinopathy of prematurity, intraventricular hemorrhage, periventricular infarction, periventricular leukomalacia, and mortality did not differ significantly between infants of PE or non-PE mothers. Incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD-defined as oxygen dependency at 36 weeks) was higher in PE infants compared with non-PE infants by both univariate and multivariate logistic regression (p = 0.007).
We conclude that, when controlling for gestational age, maternal PE results in higher incidence of only BPD among preterm Portuguese infants.
