Discussion

•Premature : 7.5%•VLBW : 1.1%

•Survival rate of VLBW : (500-600gm: 20%

1250-1500gm: 85-90%)

•Death rate of VLBW: 26.3%

Incidence of Premature in USAIncidence of Premature in USA

Incidence of fracture Incidence of fracture

Premature (>2500gm & gestation: 20-37 Wks) 1.2% (Amir J et al ,1988, JPO)

VLBW( Very Low Body Weight : >1500gm)2.1% (Amir J et al ,1988, JPO)

10.5% (Dabezies E et al 1997, CORR)

Rickets + VLBW( 1000-1500gm) 15% (Koo wwk et al 1989, Am J Dis Child)

27.1% (Dabezies E et al 1997, CORR)

Rickets + VLBW( >800gm) 73% (Koo wwk et al 1989, Am J Dis Child)

Mean age of Rickets & Fx in VLBWMean age of Rickets & Fx in VLBW

•Rickets : at 50 days (39%)28 days in this case

•Fracture : at 75 days (10.5%)49 days –119days in this case

Missed 80% of the time74% : multiple Fx

VLBW+Rickets : Fracture (27.1%)

(Dabezies E J et al CORR: 1997; 335, PP233-239)

Predisposing risk factor for Rickets in VLBWPredisposing risk factor for Rickets in VLBW

1.Prolonged parenteral nutrition(hyperalimentation: >3 weeks )

2.Hepatobiliary disease3.Chronic diuretic therapy (>2 weeks)

Diagnosis of RicketsDiagnosis of Rickets

ALP : > 400 IU(Possibility of Rickets : ALP > 350 IU)

•Radiographic fracture : found incidentally•Pathologic finding ( Craniotabes, Bowing, Rachitic rosary, Harrison groove, enlargement of wrist & ankle): rare due to rapid development

X-ray

Characteristics of Fracture Characteristics of Fracture

•Demineralization : 4th week•Rib fracture : 6-8th week (Robert WA et al, 1984 JPO)

•Long bone fracture : 11-12 week•Fracture : 75 days (Dabezies E et al 1997, CORR)

Characteristics of Fracture Characteristics of Fracture

•Metaphysis : Most•Transverse, greenstick, angulation•Callus : less than a week•No physeal disruption•Complete remodeling: 6-12months

Upper extremity : 54%Lower extremity : 18%

Rib : 22%Scapular & clavicle : 6%

Upper extremity: 35.7%Lower extremity: 6.1%Rib : 55.1%Clavicle : 3.1%

Treatment Treatment

Nutritional Fracture

Ca & P• Peripheral( IV): 50mg/kg of Ca

• Central catheter:120mg/kg of Ca 55mg/kg of P

Vit D: Range : 400-1600 IU/dayVLBW: 1000 IU/day

•Hip spica cast with Ventilator? •Immobilization for 2 weeks—deplete bone mass•Tongue blade splint?

•Aluminum splint with padding?

•Gentle nursing care?

•Avoid vigorous chest PT, passive ROM exercise

What to do What to do

•Extremity and chest radiograph should be obtained at this time in ELBW infants(rickets; 50days, fracture ; 75 days)

•Early identification and care for occult fractures in infants with rickets.

# RDS IV c SRT #2    # P-AGA, ELBWI (25 wks-560 g)    # High risk infant(C-sec, m's PIH, transverse lie, m's old age)    # BPD   # NEC    # ROP(II, zoneII, ou)   # GMH(II), WMN, ventriculomegaly(mild), subependymal cyst,
