Osteopenia of prematurity: a national survey and review of practice

Acta Paediatrica, 2008
AbstractPremature infants are at significant risk of reduced bone mineral content (BMC) and subsequent osteopenia. There are currently no standard practices regarding screening, investigation or treatment of this condition. We present a case report and findings of a national survey of 36 level 2 and 3 neonatal units (72% response rate).

The effect of thyroid functions on osteopenia of prematurity in preterm infants

Journal of Pediatric Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2019
AbstractBackgroundIt is known that thyroid hormones have effects on bone development. In particular, the effect of thyroid hormones on osteopenia of prematurity (OOP) has not been examined in preterm infants. Our study aimed to examine the relationship between OOP and congenital hypothyroidism (CH) in preterm infants.MethodsVery low birth weight ...

Osteopenia of prematurity: a radiological perspective

Journal of Neonatology, 2008
The term osteopenia of prematurity (OOP) or rickets of prematurity refers to the hypomineralization of preterm skeleton resulting from incomplete in-utero accretion of minerals. It is most commonly observed between 3–12 months of post conceptional age. The condition can be diagnosed clinically but only at a very advanced stage. Biochemical screening of

Osteopenia of prematurity: The cause and possible treatment

The Journal of Pediatrics, 1980
By photon absorptiometry, extrauterine bone mineralization in low-birth-weight infants fed a standard commercial formula lags significantly behind intrauterine bone mineralization. In the present study, infants of 28- to 32-week and 33- to 35-week gestational age were studied.

Osteopenia of Prematurity: A Systematic Review of the Evidence

The American Journal of Occupational Therapy, 2015
Abstract Date Presented 4/18/2015 The purpose of this systematic review was to appraise the evidence for the effectiveness of nonnutritional interventions in treating osteopenia of prematurity. The results of a physical activity program with preterm infants are significant, thus affecting occupational therapy intervention ...

Premature graying of hair is a risk marker for osteopenia.

The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 1994
Premature graying of hair is associated with several endocrine disorders, vitiligo, and the aging process. Although the pathophysiology of melanin depletion in hair follicles is unknown, genetic factors regulate the expression of this trait. As acquisition of bone mass is also genetically determined, we performed an exploratory case control study of ...

[Osteopenia of prematurity].

Orvosi hetilap, 2006
The survival rate of premature infants has been significantly increased during the last decades. As a consequence, the problem of less imminent, slowly progressing, but also important disorders such as osteopenia of prematurity has been emerging. The diagnosis of osteopenia of prematurity is based evidence for less bone mineral density compared to ...

[Prevention of osteopenia in premature infants].

Medycyna wieku rozwojowego, 2009
Proposition of recommendations for prevention of osteopenia in premature infants is presented in this article. In parenteral nutrition in premature infants calcium and phosphorus should be supplemented early in a dose of 80-100 mg/kg/24 h (2-2.5 mmol/kg/24 h) and 43-63 mg/kg/24 h (1.4-2 mmol/kg/24 h) respectively.

Reference values for urinary calcium and phosphorus to prevent osteopenia of prematurity

Pediatric Nephrology, 2004
The prevention of osteopenia of prematurity is an important issue in the care of preterm infants. Fetal bone mineral accretion has been achieved in preterm infants by establishing and maintaining a simultaneous slight excretion of calcium (Ca) and phosphorus (P) (urine concentrations of 1-2 mmol/l) by means of an individual supplementation with Ca and ...
