Cerebral Hypoperfusion, Endotracheal Intubation, Premedication
Conditions
Brief summary
Observational ancillary study of the PRETTINEO study (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01490580) which is a multicenter double blind randomized controlled trial comparing atropine+propofol vs atropine+atracurium+sufentanil as a premedication prior to endotracheal intubation of the neonate. Primary outcome: * Cerebral desaturation defined by a rScO2 delta \>20% from the baseline value (before premedication). * Variation of more than 10% of cerebral FTOE (Fractional Tissue Oxygen Extraction) during premedication, calculated from rScO2 and pulse oximetry with the formula FTOE=SaO2 - rScO2/SaO2 . Hypothesis: atropine + propofol compared to atropine+atracurium+sufentanil does not increase the frequency of cerebral hypoxemia.
Interventions
Atropine bolus: 20 µg/kg Propofol injected over 60 seconds: 1 mg/kg for infants \< 1000g - Renewable once 2.5 mg/kg for infants \> 1000G - Possible additional dose of 1 mg/kg
Atropine bolus: 20 µg/kg Atracurium: 0.3 mg/kg- Possible additional dose of 0.1 mg/kg Sufentanil: 0.1 µg/kg for infants \< 1000g 0.2 µg/kg for infants \> 1000g

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Cerebral desaturation | from 1 minute before to 60 minutes after the start of premedication | rScO2 delta \>20% from the baseline value (before premedication). rScO2 recording measured by INVOS 1500C 1 minute before the first injection and at 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes after the first drug injection |
| FTOE (Fractional Tissue Oxygen Extraction) | from 1 minute before to 60 minutes after the start of premedication | Variation of more than 10% of cerebral FTOE (Fractional Tissue Oxygen Extraction) during premedication. FTOE is calculated from rScO2 and pulse oxymetry (SaO2) with the formula FTOE = SaO2 - rScO2/SaO2. Values will be recorded 1 minute before the first injection and at 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes after the first drug injection. |
