Microbiological analyses of nasally guided catheters after less invasive surfactant administration – a pilot study
BACKGROUND: Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) is a frequent complication of premature birth. Treating RDS by continuous positive airway pressure and less invasive surfactant administration (LISA) may reduce bronchopulmonary dysplasia. Surfactant, however, can be inactivated by bacterial infection....

description | BACKGROUND: Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) is a frequent complication of premature birth. Treating RDS by continuous positive airway pressure and less invasive surfactant administration (LISA) may reduce bronchopulmonary dysplasia. Surfactant, however, can be inactivated by bacterial infection. Therefore, potential routes of microbe transmission into the airway are of interest. The aim of this study was to evaluate microbiological contamination of catheters used for LISA procedures and its association with postnatal age. METHODS: Catheter tips used for LISA procedures via the nasal route (LISA-n) in infants with RDS were placed into a sterile eSwab container directly after the procedure, cultured and examined for microbiological contamination. RESULTS: Interpretable results could be collected from 20 catheter tips. Four showed positive culture results (20%) with microbes potentially associated with the development of early onset neonatal sepsis. Risk of positive microbe detection increased with postnatal age (< 4 h: 10%; 4–18 h: 20%; > 18 h: 40%). CONCLUSIONS: In this pilot study, the risk of tracheal microbe transmission following the LISA-n procedure increased with postnatal age. Although the clinical relevance of this finding is unclear, earlier surfactant administration might reduce the risk of catheter contamination.
