Report of an Experiment With a Fetal Ex-Utero Support System in Piglets
Extreme prematurity remains one of the leading causes of neonatal death. An ex-utero treatment strategy that allows the fetus to develop beyond this period until capable of tolerating the transition to post-natal physiology would significantly impact the quality of care offered for this pre-viable p...

description | Extreme prematurity remains one of the leading causes of neonatal death. An ex-utero treatment strategy that allows the fetus to develop beyond this period until capable of tolerating the transition to post-natal physiology would significantly impact the quality of care offered for this pre-viable patient population. In this study, we report our experience with an ex-utero support system for fetal pigs with the goal of support and survival for eight hours. Our experiment included two pigs at a gestational age equivalent to a 32-week human fetus. Following ultrasound assessment and delivery via hysterotomy, the fetuses were transferred to a 40 L glass aquarium filled with warmed lactated Ringer's solution and connected to an arteriovenous (AV) circuit that included a centrifugal pump and a pediatric oxygenator. Fetus 1 was successfully cannulated and survived for seven hours (expected maximum duration of eight hours). Fetus 2 died shortly after hysterotomy, secondary to failure at the cannulation stage. Our results suggest that ex-utero support of the premature fetal pig is feasible, contributing to a scarce body of evidence. However, further studies are needed before effectively translating an artificial placenta system into the clinical arena. |
