Preterm Birth And CNS Injuries
Pathologically :2 CNS injuries :
(1) Intraventricular Hemorrhage (IVH)
Usually diagnosed by ultrasound (U/S)
(2) White Matter Injury.
Usually diagnosed by MRI

Preterm Birth And CNS Injuries
Clinically: The most frequent adverse
CNS outcomes are
1-Cerebral palsy (CP)
2-Cognitive impairment
3-Blindness,deafness & developmental
delay.
SOGC Clinical Practice Guideline No. 258, May 2011
The Etiology Of CP
It is multi factorial
Prematurity :42*-78 %
Intrauterine growth restriction:34%
Intrauterine infection :28%
Antepartum hemorrhage : 27%
Severe placental pathology : 21%
Multiple pregnancy : 20%
Strijbis et al. ,Obstet Gynecol. 2006;107(6):1357.
*(Australian Cerebral Palsy Register Group
2009)
Clinical Types of CP
There are 4 main types of CP:
1. Spastic (increased muscle tone)
2. Dyskinetic (slow, uncontrolled movements)
3. Ataxic (problems with balance and depth
perception)
4. Mixed
The most common pattern is spasticity plus
dyskinetic movements.
CP can be reliably diagnosed by the age of 2 years.

Cerebral Palsy (CP)
The Magnitude Of The Problem
CP is the most common cause of severe motor
disability in childhood
CP increases inversely according to G. age:
All live births : 0.25 %
Compared with infants at term the CP risk is:
 At 34-36 weeks : 3 fold
 At 30-33 weeks : 8- 14 fold
 At 28-30 weeks : 46 fold
 At < 28 weeks : 80 Fold

The Magnitude Of The Problem
The Economic Burden: Health care,

The mechanism is not well understood
potential neuroprotective actions include:
Antioxidant effects
Reduction in pro-inflammatory cytokines
Inhibition of calcium influx into cells
Stabilization of membranes

Meta-analyses
In 2009, a milestone was reached with
the publication of 3 meta- analyses, all
of which included the same 5 RCTs and
concluded that :
MgSO4 for fetal neuroprotection
decreases the risk of childhood CP

The Cochrane Review :Result
I-MgSO4 significantly reduced the risk of :
 Cerebral palsy
 Substantial gross motor dysfunction
(inability to walk without assistance ) at 2
years of age
II- MgSO4 had No significant effect of on
pediatric (fetal, neonatal and later) mortality.

Outcome 6 Substantial gross motor dysfunction.
Doyle et al . Cochrane Database Syst Rev 2009;(1):CD004661.
The Cochrane Systematic Review concluded
that :
MgSO4 reduced the risk of cerebral palsy by 32 %
(from 5.4% to 3.7% with absolute risk reduction
of 1.7 %.)*
The number needed to treat(NNT) to benefit one
baby was 63 women. These compare favourably
with the 70 women with preeclampsia to prevent
one eclamptic fit.**

Sibai , Obstet Gynecol. 2005;105(2):402 **
The Cochrane Systematic Review concluded
that :
There were no significant differences observed for
the major maternal outcomes of:
 Death (RR=1.25; 95%ci=0.51-3.07)
 Cardiac arrest (RR=0.34; 95%ci=0.04-3.26)
Respiratory arrest (rr=1.02; 95%ci=0.06-16.25).
Doyle et al Cochrane Database Syst Rev. 2009
The Cochrane Systematic Review concluded
that :
Regarding secondary maternal outcomes,MgSO4
therapy was associated with significantly more:
 Hypotension (RR=1.51; 95%ci=1.09-2.09)
 Tachycardia (rr=1.53, 95%ci=1.03-2.29).
There were no differences seen in rates of :
Maternal respiratory depression
Postpartum haemorrhage
Caesarean delivery

It was recommended that physicians develop
guidelines around the issues of inclusion criteria,

SOGC Guideline Recommendations
For women with imminent preterm
birth (< 32 weeks), antenatal MgSO4
administration should be considered
for fetal neuroprotection. (I-A)
SOGC Clinical Practice Guideline No. 258, May 2011
SOGC Guideline Recommendations
For women with imminent preterm birth (< 32
weeks), antenatal MgSO4 administration should
be considered for fetal neuroprotection. (I-A)
What is the Imminent Preterm Birth
One or both of the following conditions (II-2):
1-Active labour with ≥ 4 cm of cervical dilation,
with or without PPROM.
2-Planned preterm birth for fetal or maternal
indications. SOGC Clinical Practice Guideline No. 258, May 2011
What is the Imminent Preterm Birth
Imminent preterm birth” is defined as a high
likelihood of birth due to one or both of the
following conditions (II-2):
1-Active labour with ≥ 4 cm of cervical dilation,
with or without PPROM.
2-Planned preterm birth for fetal or maternal
indications.
SOGC Clinical Practice Guideline No. 258, May 2011
What Is The Cut-off Gestational Age For
MgSO4 ?
Although there is controversy about upper
G. age ,antenatal MgSO4 should be considered
from viability to < 32 weeks. (II-1B)
If antenatal MgSO4 has been started, tocolysis
should be discontinued. (III-A)
SOGC Clinical Practice Guideline No. 258, May 2011
Should MgSO4 Course Be Repeated ?
There is insufficient evidence that a repeat
course of antenatal MgSO4 should be
administered. (III-L)
Should Delivery Be Delayed To Give
MgSO4 Course?
Delivery should not be delayed if there are
maternal and/or fetal indications for
emergency delivery. (III-E)
SOGC Clinical Practice Guideline No. 258, May 2011
What Is The Recommended Dose ?
4g Mg SO4 IV loading dose, over 30
minutes, followed by a maintenance
infusion of 1g/ hours until birth or for 24
hours, whichever comes first. .(II-2B)
Mg SO4 should be started, ideally within 4
hours before birth .(II-2B)
SOGC Clinical Practice Guideline No. 258, May 2011
What Is The Recommended Dose ?
Although strong evidence supports the
use of antenatal MgSO4 for neuro-
protection prior to very preterm birth,
no trials comparing different treatment
regimens have been completed.
Bain et al. Cochrane Database SystRev. 2012 Feb 15;2:CD009302
What Is The Recommended Dose ?
Research should be directed towards
comparisons of different dosages and
other variations in regimens, evaluating
both maternal and infant outcomes.
Bain et al. Cochrane Database SystRev. 2012 Feb 15;2:CD009302
Conclusions
MgSO4 should be considered from viability to
≤ 31+6 weeks with imminent preterm birth.
The best available evidence recommended
dose is 4g IV loading dose, over 30 minutes,
followed by a maintenance infusion of 1g/ hours
until birth or for 24 hours, whichever comes first.
