1 March of Dimes New York State Chapter 36th Annual Perinatal Nurses Conference Promoting Perinatal Health Through Evidence Based Practice Not As Pink As You Think: Pulse Oximetry Screening For Critical Congenital Heart Disease Robert Koppel, MD March 24, 2014 Disclosures Dr. Koppel has nothing to disclose. Not as Pink as You Think 1

2 Congenital Heart Disease 9/1,000 live births Approximately one quarter of these children will have critical congenital heart disease requiring surgery or catheter intervention in the first year of life Congenital Heart Disease Surgery allows for repair or palliation of nearly all congenital heart malformations Surgery and catheter interventions have resulted in a marked improvement in survival Surgery is often performed in the first weeks of life optimize hemodynamics prevent end organ injury timely diagnosis of CCHD can improve outcome for this population Window of opportunity for detection of critical congenital heart disease Newborn Nursery 2

3 Newborn Screening New York 1960s The Cyanotic Blind Spot Hokanson, Neonatology Today 2010;5(12):1-6. Morbidity Due to Delayed Diagnosis Shock global hypoxemic injury with multi organ dysfunction Hypotension Poor ventricular function Myocardial ischemia Pulmonary hypertension Renal dysfunction Hepatic dysfunction Decreased intestinal blood flow > NEC DIC Metabolic Hypoglycemia Hypocalcemia Myoglobinuria hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy 3

4 Fetal U/S Echocardiography fewer than 50% of cases are identified Best detection rate for single ventricle anatomy fewer than 30% detection of lesions with twoventricle anatomy Early Reports on Pulse Oximetry Screening Byrne, et al Identified in a population of 3896 consecutive asymptomatic newborns HLHS 1 Coarctation 1 Tetralogy of Fallot 1 Ped Res 1995, 37:198A Early Reports on Pulse Oximetry Screening Kao, et al: Using a cutoff of 95% 81% of infants with known critical congenital heart disease could be identified. Not effective at detecting aortic stenosis and coarctation Pediatr Res. 1995;37:216A 4

5 Method At time of dry blood spot collection, a reusable pulse oximeter probe is applied to the baby s foot Method When a steady wave form is displayed, the saturation is recorded Physician is notified for lower extremity saturation < 95% Pre and post ductal saturations are performed Echocardiogram is requested 5

9 CCHD 7 The seven defects classified as CCHD are: 1. Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS) 2. Pulmonary Atresia with intact septum (PA/IVS) 3. Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) 4. Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Return (TAPVR) 5. Transposition of the Great Arteries (TGA) 6. Tricuspid Atresia (TA) 7. Truncus Arteriosus communis (TAC) SACHDNC Summary Pediatrics August 22, 2011 A significant body of evidence suggests that early detection of CCHD through pulse oximetry screening is an effective strategy for reducing morbidity and mortality in young children. The workgroup identified strategies for hospitals and birthing centers to implement pulse oximetry screening 9

10 SACHDNC Summary Pediatrics August 22, 2011 Screening should be conducted using motiontolerant pulse oximeters that report functional oxygen saturation cleared by the FDA for use in neonates SACHDNC Summary Pediatrics August 22, 2011 Screening in well baby and intermediate care nurseries should be based on the recommended screening algorithm, and be performed by any qualified health care personnel who have met training requirements (e.g., nurses, allied health technicians) SACHDNC Summary Pediatrics August 22, 2011 Any abnormal pulse oximetry screen requires a complete clinical evaluation by a licensed, independent practitioner. In the absence of other findings to explain hypoxemia, CCHD needs to be excluded, based on a comprehensive echocardiogram interpreted by a pediatric cardiologist before discharge to home. If an echocardiogram cannot be performed in the hospital or birthing center and diagnosis by telemedicine is not possible, strong consideration should be made for transfer to another medical center for diagnosis. Before implementing screening, protocols for arranging diagnostic follow up should be established. 10
