Neonatal Platelet Transfusion Threshold Trial
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Higher Platelet Transfusion Threshold: Infants randomized to this arm will be monitored for a platelet transfusion threshold of 50 x 10\^9/L during postnatal days 1-7, and then for a platelet transfusion threshold of 35 x 10\^9/L at 8 or more postnatal days of life. Infants will remain on this protocol-driven threshold through 40 0/7 weeks postmenstrual age. The platelet dose will be 10 ml/kg administered over 60-120 minutes.
Lower Platelet Transfusion Threshold: Infants randomized to this arm will be monitored for a platelet transfusion threshold of 25 x 10\^9/L during postnatal days 1-7, and then for a platelet transfusion threshold of 20 x 10\^9/L at 8 or more postnatal days of life. Infants will remain on this protocol-driven threshold through 40 0/7 weeks postmenstrual age. The platelet dose will be 10 ml/kg administered over 60-120 minutes.
Study summary
The objective of the NeoPlaTT trial is to test whether, among extremely preterm infants born at 23 0/7 to 26 6/7 weeks' gestation, a lower platelet transfusion threshold, compared to a higher threshold, improves survival without major or severe bleeding up to 40 0/7 weeks' postmenstrual age (PMA).
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Survival without major or severe bleeding — Randomization to 40 0/7 weeks postmenstrual age, death, discharge, or transfer outside of the Study Center, whichever occurs first (an average of 98 days postnatal age)
Bleeding will be assessed using the neonatal Bleeding Assessment Tool (NeoBAT), a validated bleeding assessment tool (Venkatesh V, 2013)
