<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Sufentanil is a potent synthetic opioid used for analgesia in neonates; however, data concerning drug disposition of sufentanil and dosage regimen are sparse in this population. Therefore, the aim of the study was to explore sufentanil disposition and to propose optimal loading and maintenance doses of sufentanil in ventilated full-term neonates. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Individual sufentanil pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated based on therapeutic drug monitoring data using a 2-compartmental model. Linear regression models were used to explore the covariates. <b><i>Results:</i></b> The median (IQR) central volume of distribution (Vd<sub>c</sub>) and clearance (CL) for sufentanil were 4.7 (4.1–5.4) L/kg and 0.651 (0.433–0.751) L/h/kg, respectively. Linear regression models showed relationship between Vd<sub>c</sub> (L) and GA (<i>r</i><sup>2</sup> = 0.3436; <i>p</i> = 0.0452) as well as BW (<i>r</i><sup>2</sup> = 0.4019; <i>p</i> = 0.0268). Median optimal sufentanil LD and MD were 2.13 (95% CI: 1.78–2.48) μg/kg and 0.29 (95% CI: 0.22–0.37) μg/kg/h, respectively. Median daily COMFORT-B (IQR) scores ranged from 6 to 23 while no significant relationship between pharmacokinetic parameters and COMFORT-B scores was found. <b><i>Discussion/Conclusion:</i></b> Body weight and gestational age were found as weak covariates for sufentanil distribution, and the dosage regimen was developed for a prospective trial.

A Prospective Study

Retinal hemorrhages occur frequently in association with abusive head trauma.1 The injuries are venous [See table in the PDF] in origin and, as such, are similar to the retinal hemorrhages which frequently occur in full-term neonates after vaginal delivery. Because retinal hemorrhages in child abuse frequently are associated with intracranial bleeding, we questioned the possibility of a relationship between parturitional retinal hemorrhages and concurrent intracranial injuries. To answer this question we designed a prospective study in which we performed magnetic resonance imaging on 10 randomly selected full-term neonates in whom the presence of retinal hemorrhages was confirmed on fundascopic examination by a pediatric ophthalmologist.

Mathematical Formulas

The relation of fetal and placental weight under different conditions was studied by Westermark on a material of 20,000 cases, using mathematical formulas, and he came to the following conclusions: fetal weight is less at first birth than at subsequent birth and is independent of the age of the mother; the placenta of full-term fetuses weighs on average 644.0 in boys and 657.0 in girls; the ratio of placental to fetal weight in boys is 1: 5.47, in girls 1:5.17; fetal weight arrives faster than placenta weight; the number determining the proportion between fetal weight and placenta weight increases with maternal age, but is independent of the number of former pregnancies; it is greater in twins.
