METHODS A retrospective study conducted in a single third level Italian centre (2005-2009) to analyse the incidence and risk factors of composite respiratory morbidity (CRM), the need for adjunctive therapies (surfactant therapy, inhaled nitric oxide, pleural drainage)...
متن کاملAcute respiratory morbidity in late preterm infants
Background Late preterm (LP) infants [gestational age (GA): 3436 weeks] are at increased risk of neonatal acute respiratory morbidity compared with term infants (GA: 3741) [1,2]. The observed rate of acute respiratory morbidity, in a population of about 20,000 LP infants, was 10-12% vs 1.4% of term infants [1]. Transient tachypnea of the newborn (TTN) and respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) are...
متن کاملModerately preterm, late preterm and early term infants: research needs.

This article presents a research agenda focusing on the systems biology, epidemiology, and clinical and translational sciences on th...

متن کاملVulnerability and “minor” developmental disorders in late preterm infants
The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development panel reviewed the evidence of increased risk of infants with a gestational age of 34-36 weeks and, in 2006, changed the earlier definition of “near term” to “late preterm (LPT)”. LPT infants represent 70% of all the whole population of preterm but while it is known that they are at major risk of mortality and morbidity than term infa...
