Mean Platelet Volume as a Marker of Intraventricular Hemorrhage in Very Premature Infants

Abstract: Background: Since the intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is still a serious problem in premature infants associated with poor neurodevelopmental outcomes, there is a need for an accessible tool in order to identify these at high risk neonates. Objectives: To determine if high mean platelet volume (MPV) within 24 hours of birth can identify preterm infants prone to IVH as a simple accessible test. Methods: One hundred premature infants with gestational age (GA) of < 34 weeks with respiratory distress syndrome (R… Show more

“…Our results regarding the Gestational age and body weight was against Mosayebi et al, [20] who study Markers of Intraventricular Hemorrhage in Very Premature Infants. One hundred premature infants with gestational age (GA) < 34 weeks divided into two groups, infants with IVH had lower birth weight (Mean difference: 0.48, 95%CI: 0.08 to 0.87, P = 0.018) and GA (Mean difference: 2.9, 95%CI: 1.95 to 3.92, P < 0.001), compared to infants without IVH.…”

“…11 fl), Mosayebi et al and Hussein et al showed a significant association with IVH. 15,26 Other Platelet Indices Platelet mass index is calculated as platelet count  MPV and was investigated in three studies. 13,14,27 Two studies showed a lower platelet mass index at days 3 to 7 13,14 in neonates with IVH than in neonates without IVH.…”

“…15,26 Mosayebi et al reported an adjusted odds ratio of 10.68 (95% CI: 3.20-35.59) for having IVH when MPV was > 11 fl. 15 However, the wide CI reflects a considerable uncertainty of the estimate. Altered MPV has been suggested as a consequence of inflammation due to IVH rather than a cause of IVH.…”
