Two‐year follow‐up of infant and maternal outcomes after planned early delivery or expectant management for late preterm pre‐eclampsia ( PHOENIX) : A randomised controlled trial

Abstract Objective We evaluated the best time to initiate delivery in late preterm pre‐eclampsia in order to optimise long‐term infant and maternal outcomes. Design Parallel‐group, non‐masked, randomised controlled trial. Setting Forty‐six maternity units in the UK. Population Women with pre‐eclampsia between 34+0 and 36+6 weeks of gestation, without severe disease, were randomised to planned delivery or expectant management. Main outcome measures Infant neurodevelopmental outcome at 2 years of age, using the Parent Report of Children’s Abilities – Revised (PARCA‐R) composite score. Results Between 29 September 2014 and 10 December 2018, 901 women were enrolled in the trial, with 450 women allocated to planned delivery and 451 women allocated to expectant management. At the 2‐year follow‐up, the intention‐to‐treat analysis population included 276 women (290 infants) allocated to planned delivery and 251 women (256 infants) allocated to expectant management. The mean composite standardised PARCA‐R scores were 89.5 (SD 18.2) in the planned delivery group and 91.9 (SD 18.4) in the expectant management group, with an adjusted mean difference of −2.4 points (95% CI −5.4 to 0.5 points). Conclusions In infants of women with late preterm pre‐eclampsia, the average neurodevelopmental assessment at 2 years lies within the normal range, regardless of whether planned delivery or expectant management was pursued. With the lower than anticipated follow‐up rate there was limited power to demonstrate that these scores did not differ, but the small between‐group difference in PARCA‐R scores is unlikely to be clinically important..
