Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The overall aim is to evaluate the association between cerebral oxygenation, activity and perfusion as evaluated perioperative by NIRS, aEEG, Zonare Doppler Ultrasound and Cytocam-IDF and evaluation of growth and neurodevelopment within the first two years of age. Page 9, 13 | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| * Evaluation by NIRS, aEEG, Zonare Doppler ultrasound and Cytocam-IDF to compare open, minimal access surgery (MAS) and conversion from MAS to open surgery of the diaphragm defect for 24 hours. * Transcutaneous CO2 measurements * Mitochondrial saturation * Pre- and postoperative intensive care management: * Ventilation settings and need of oxygen * Use of vaso-active medication * (Postoperative) pain scores every eight hours (COMFORT scores) * Number of ventilator free days at day 28 * Length of stay (LOS) * Prenatal screening ultrasound results for CDH neonates * Cranial ultrasound pre- and postoperative, at discharge from paediatric centre * Arterial blood gas analysis perioperative * Contralateral renal and quadriceps muscle tissue oxygenation starting 3 hours before surgery till 24 hours postoperative * Recurrence rate in the two years after surgery * Neurodevelopmental outcome at 6, 12, 18 and 30 months of age Page 9, 13,14,15 | — |
