Summary

The objective of the NeoPlaTT trial is to test whether, among extremely preterm infants born at 23 0/7 to 26 6/7 weeks' gestation, a lower platelet transfusion threshold, compared to a higher threshold, improves survival without major or severe bleeding up to 40 0/7 weeks' postmenstrual age (PMA).

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Higher Platelet Transfusion Threshold

Infants randomized to this arm will be monitored for a platelet transfusion threshold of 50 x 10\^9/L during postnatal days 1-7, and then for a platelet transfusion threshold of 35 x 10\^9/L at 8 or more postnatal days of life. Infants will remain on this protocol-driven threshold through 40 0/7 weeks postmenstrual age. The platelet dose will be 10 ml/kg administered over 60-120 minutes.

PROCEDURE

Lower Platelet Transfusion Threshold

Infants randomized to this arm will be monitored for a platelet transfusion threshold of 25 x 10\^9/L during postnatal days 1-7, and then for a platelet transfusion threshold of 20 x 10\^9/L at 8 or more postnatal days of life. Infants will remain on this protocol-driven threshold through 40 0/7 weeks postmenstrual age. The platelet dose will be 10 ml/kg administered over 60-120 minutes.
