Objective Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a serious complication associated with preterm birth. A growing body of evidence suggests role for prenatal factors in its pathogenesis. Metabolomics allows simultaneous characterization low molecular weight compounds and may provide picture such complex condition. The aim this study was to evaluate whether an unbiased metabolomic analysis amniotic fluid (AF) can be used investigate the risk spontaneous delivery (PTD) BPD development offspring....
Abstract Objectives To compare the efficacy of intra‐tracheal (IT) surfactant/budesonide (SB) with that surfactant alone (S) in reducing rate bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) at 36 weeks post‐menstrual age (PMA), we included extremely preterm very low birth weight (VLBW) infants severe respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) our tertiary neonatal level care unit (Padua, Italy). Study Design A retrospective chart review two cohorts VLBW neonates (<28 +0 gestation weeks, [BW] < 1500 g) born...
This cohort study examines the role of lung ultrasonography score in estimating respiratory episodes needing drugs or hospitalization premature infants.
Abstract Chronic obstructive respiratory disorders such as asthma and chronic pulmonary disease (COPD) have their roots in the womb. Together with a genetic predisposition, prenatal early‐life factors, including maternal smoking, prematurity, bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), pivotal role later health. Then, inappropriate responses to viruses (especially syncytial virus rhinovirus) early allergic sensitization are strongest contributors inception of wheezing early‐onset asthma. There is an...
Placing an endotracheal tube (ETT) in neonates is challenging and currently requires timely radiographic confirmation of correct tip placement. The objective was to establish the reliability ultrasound (US) for assessing ETT position neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), time needed do so, patients' tolerance.A prospective study on 71 newborns admitted our NICU whose placement evaluated with US (ETT-echo) confirmed chest X-rays (CXR). Data were collected by 3 operators (2 neonatologists a...
