Methylxanthines inhibit late-onset circulatory collapse in preterm infants

Background Several drugs, when used chronically in very preterm infants, are considered to be associated with the development of late‐onset circulatory collapse (LCC), which can lead to neurodevelopmental impairment. Despite its clinical importance, conclusive risk factors for LCC have yet to be ide...

Zusammenfassung:Background Several drugs, when used chronically in very preterm infants, are considered to be associated with the development of late‐onset circulatory collapse (LCC), which can lead to neurodevelopmental impairment. Despite its clinical importance, conclusive risk factors for LCC have yet to be identified. The aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship between LCC and diuretics, methylxanthines, levothyroxine, and sodium chloride. Methods Infants born at
