OBJECTIVE: Infants and toddlers with classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) are at high risk for morbidity/mortality arising from life-threatening adrenal crisis. Management of acute illnesses in CAH requires an understanding of factors leading to emergency department (ED) visits and hospitalizations in the first few years of life. We, therefore, examined adrenal crisis at prehospital and ED stages of illness in young children with CAH as they related to medical outcomes.
PATIENTS AND DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study of 39 children with CAH due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency (0-4 years of age) and 27 age-matched controls.
MEASUREMENTS: ED visit, acute illness symptoms (fever, vomiting, diarrhoea) and other characteristics (hospitalizations, administration of stress-dose hydrocortisone, electrolyte abnormalities).
RESULTS: CAH infants and toddlers had significantly higher rates of ED visits (0.50 [0.25-0.88] per person-year) than controls (0 [0-0] per person-year; p < .001). Moreover, CAH children under 6 months old had significantly higher rates of ED visits compared with older ages. Only 50% (51/102) of illness-related ED visits in CAH children were preceded by the administration of either oral (46/51) or intramuscular (11/51) stress dosing by parents. A total of 10.8% of ED visits resulted in hospital admission. Controlling for age and 17-hydroxyprogesterone at diagnosis, electrolyte abnormalities and administration of parenteral hydrocortisone in the ED significantly predicted hospital admission. Receiving a hydrocortisone injection before the ED was a significant predictor of having electrolyte abnormalities.
CONCLUSIONS: Infants and toddlers with classical CAH are at high risk for acute illness and hospitalizations and often do not receive adequate stress dosing before the ED.
