Implication

Analysis reveals gestational hypertension raises neonatal iron deficiency risk in very preterm infants, indicating tailored iron therapy may be needed.

Key Points

Gestational hypertension notably increases the risk of iron deficiency in very-preterm infants at NICU discharge.
Iron deficiency affected 31.3% of infants, with a 2.28 adjusted odds ratio in GH-exposed infants compared to non-exposed.
Analysis used multivariable logistic regression on a population-based cohort of very-preterm infants from Nova Scotia.
These findings suggest the need for enhanced monitoring and customized iron supplementation for infants from hypertensive pregnancies.
