Summary proceedings from the bronchopulmonary dysplasia group.
Despite improvements in neonatal care, bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) continues to occur in approximately one third of newborns who have birth weights of <1000 g and contributes to significant morbidity in this population. Gaps in knowledge about the prevention and treatment of BPD remain, resulting in unintended short- and long-term sequelae. In addition to chronic lung disease, preterm newb...
متن کاملSummary proceedings from the cardiology group on postoperative cardiac dysfunction.
As many as one third of the 35,000 to 40,000 infants born in the United States each year with significant congenital heart defects require surgery before the first year of life. Intraoperative support techniques, including cardiopulmonary bypass, can precipitate a complex, systemic inflammatory response that impairs the function of multiple organs and results in more hemodynamic instability and...
متن کاملSummary proceedings from the apnea-of-prematurity group.
Apnea of prematurity (AOP) is found in >50% of premature infants and is almost universal in infants who are <1000 g at birth. The literature clearly defines clinically significant apnea in infants (breathing pauses that last for >20 seconds or for >10 seconds if associated with bradycardia or oxygen desaturation), but there is no consensus about the duration of apnea, the degree of change in ox...
متن کاملSummary proceedings from the neurology group on hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy.
Hypoxic-ischemic cerebral injury that occurs during the perinatal period is one of the most commonly recognized causes of severe, long-term neurologic deficits in children; it is often referred to as cerebral palsy. Despite improvements in perinatal practice during the past several decades, the incidence of cerebral palsy attributed to intrapartum asphyxia has remained essentially unchanged, pr...
متن کاملBronchopulmonary Dysplasia
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) continues to be the most common and most important complication in preterm infants with RDS. The incidence varies from 20 to 60 % in preterm infants whose weight are < 1500 gram. The presence of BPD is often associated with significant mortality and short term and long term morbidity, including growth failure and neurodevelopment delay. The exact mechanism and p...
