2 Setting Scene Advancements in neonatal care over past 30 years has resulted in an increase in survivability of people born with Very Low Birth Weight (VLBW). Most data available during childhood and adolescence. Little is known about pulmonary function sequelae and exercise capacity in adult survivors of VLBW

3 FEV 1 Research in VLBW A.-M. Gibson, L.W. Doyle / Seminars in Fetal & Neonatal Medicine 19 (2014)

4 FEV 1 Research in VLBW A.-M. Gibson, L.W. Doyle / Seminars in Fetal & Neonatal Medicine 19 (2014)

5 Common Themes Spirometry A.-M. Gibson, L.W. Doyle / Seminars in Fetal & Neonatal Medicine 19 (2014) : Adapted from Tager et al, Am J Epidemiol 1979;110:15e26.

6 Common Themes Other lung function indices Decreased DLCO (Hakulinen, Vrijlandt) Increased gas trapping Exercise Capacity Mixed literature on maximal oxygen consumption reduced (Kilbride) no change cf age matched controls (Heldt, Vrijlandt) Reduced maximal WR (Vrijlandt) Reduced AT (Vrijlandt)

7 Aim To investigate the effect of VLBW on lung function and exercise capacity in young adult survivors.

8 Methods A multi-specialty research project involving New Zealand babies born in 1986 is in progress 250 VLBW (<1500g) 100 age matched term controls 2-day visit to Christchurch including: cardiac echo and ECG, Cranial MRI, psychometric testing, eye exam, dental exam, multiple questionnaires/interviews, blood test and respiratory function This presentation focuses on the respiratory physiology First 69 VLBW and 27 Controls

26 What s Next? Complete data collection Differentiate the cohort: with and without BPD/co-morbidities at birth gestational age gender differences DLCO Hb correction Continue with exercise data collection generate exercise reference equations for 27 year olds from our control data
