Abstract:
:We investigated early postnatal changes of the mesenteric circulation and its relationship to the systemic circulation in two groups of newborn infants. Group I (n = 10) was studied before the first feeding at 1 h and preprandially at 6 and 24 h. Group II (n = 10) was studied before the first feeding at 2 h of age and preprandially and postprandially at d 3, 4, and 5. Blood flow velocity was measured with ultrasound Doppler in the superior mesenteric artery (SMA), middle cerebral artery, subclavian artery, and aortic orifice for cardiac output (CO) calculations. Blood pressure and heart rate were monitored. SMA mean velocity (Vmean) decreased from 1 [0.33 +/- 0.07 m/s (mean +/- SD)] to 6 h (0.23 +/- 0.08 m/s, p < 0.005) in group I, probably due to ductal steal, returning to the 1-h value at 24 h. In contrast, middle cerebral artery Vmean remained unchanged in the first 24 h. From d 3, SMA Vmean increased 92% postprandially, with no relation to increasing amounts of food. The postprandial increase in SMA Vmean was not associated with changes in CO and blood pressure; however, a fall in relative mesenteric vascular resistance suggested regional redistribution of CO. Middle cerebral artery Vmean increased from h 2 to d 3 with a further increase on d 4 (p < 0.01). This increase was associated with an increase in blood pressure. The relative fraction of CO to middle cerebral artery increased during the first days of life, suggesting a redistribution of blood flow to the metabolically active organs in the neonatal period.
