The Potential Impact of Preemptive Pharmacogenetic Genotyping in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit - 22/08/23
Abstract |
Objective |
To evaluate the use of drugs with pharmacogenomic (PGx) guidelines from the Clinical Pharmacogenetics Implementation Consortium in early childhood.
Study design |
A retrospective observational study of patients admitted to the neonatal intensive care (NICU) between 2005 and 2018 with at least 1 subsequent hospitalization at or after 5 years of age was performed to determine PGx drug exposure. Data regarding hospitalizations, drug exposures, gestational age, birth weight, and congenital anomalies and/or a primary genetic diagnosis were collected. Incidence of PGx drug and drug class exposures was determined and patient specific factors predictive of exposure were investigated.
Results |
During the study, 19 195 patients received NICU care and 4196 (22%) met study inclusion; 67% received 1-2, 28% 3-4, and 5% 5 or more PGx-drugs in early childhood. Preterm gestation, low birth weight (<2500 g), and the presence of any congenital anomalies and/or a primary genetic diagnosis were statistically significant predictors of Clinical Pharmacogenetics Implementation Consortium drug exposures (P < .01, P < .01, P < .01, respectively).
Conclusions |
Preemptive PGx testing in patients in the NICU could have a significant impact on medical management during the NICU stay and throughout early childhood.
