The Spanish Pediatric Association (Asociación Española de Pediatría, AEP) has as one of its main objectives the dissemination of rigorous and up-to-date scientific information on the various areas of pediatrics. Annals of Pediatrics is an open access journal that serves as the Association's Scientific Expression Organ and constitutes the vehicle through which members communicate. Annals of Pediatrics publishes, in English and Spanish, original research papers on pediatrics, as well as review articles prepared by experts in each specialty, and guidelines or positioning documents prepared by the different Societies/Specialized Sections integrated into the Spanish Pediatric Association. The journal, a reference for Spanish-speaking pediatrics, is indexed in the most important international databases: Index Medicus/Medline IBECS, IME, SCOPUS, Science Citation Index Expanded, Journal Citations Report, Embase/Excerpta Medica, Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ).

Article information

Objetivo

Determinar la incidencia, gravedad y evolución de la retinopatía del prematuro en recién nacidos con peso inferior a 1.501 g en nuestro medio.

Métodos

Se ha efectuado un estudio prospectivo de los recién nacidos de peso inferior a 1.501 g entre enero de 1999 y junio de 2000. Se han incluido en el estudio 178 pacientes con una edad gestacional media de 29,8 6 2,9 semanas y peso medio de 1.095 6 261,5 g.

Resultados

Desarrollaron retinopatía el 29,2% de los recién nacidos, de los cuales 5,6% presentaron una retinopatía en estadio umbral y precisaron tratamiento. Ningún paciente de más de 30 semanas o más de 1.250 g presentó una retinopatía grave.

Conclusiones

La incidencia es similar a la publicada en la literatura, y la inmadurez es el principal factor de riesgo de desarrollar la retinopatía. Los resultados del estudio nos ha hecho variar el programa de cribado para detectar todos los prematuros con retinopatía del prematuro en estadio umbral.

Palabras clave:

Objective

The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence, severity and outcome of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) in neonates with birth weights of less than 1,501 g in our environment

Methods

A prospective study of infants with birth weights of less than 1,501 g was performed from January 1999 to June 2000. One hundred seventy-eight infants were enrolled in the study. Mean gestational age was 29.8 6 2.9 weeks and mean birth weight was 1,095 6 261.5 g.

Results

Overall, 52 infants (29.2 %) developed ROP, of which 10 (5.6 %) presented threshold ROP requiring treatment. None of the infants with a gestational age of more than 30 weeks and a birth weight of more than 1,250 g presented severe retinopathy.

Conclusions

The incidence found in the present study is similar to that of other studies. Immaturity is the most significant risk factors for the development of ROP. The results of our study led us to change our screening program to detect all threshold ROP.
