Tracheomalacia and Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia

Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 1991
Wheezing in the infant with bronchopulmonary dysplasia results from various pathophysiologic mechanisms, including upper or central airway obstruction. We report an infant with bronchopulmonary dysplasia who presented with episodic wheezing associated with hypoxia and bradycardia without evidence of stridor.

The Management of Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia

Clinics in Perinatology, 1987
After presentation of the actual knowledge concerning the pathophysiology of bronchopulmonary dysplasia, the prevention and the management of the disease are discussed. Techniques of ventilation, weaning procedures and prescription of drugs are also analyzed.

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia-pathology

The Journal of Pediatrics, 1979
The term bronchopulmonary dysplasia has much to commend it. It does not declare the etiology of this disease, which seems to be an advantage. Another advantage is that it presents the idea of disturbance of growth as well as scarring. The premature lung responds at birth somewhat differently from the mature lung, not just in respect to surfactant but ...

Prevention of bronchopulmonary dysplasia

Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 2001
The clinical syndrome of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in preterm infants results primarily from an arrest of lung vascular and alveolar development. The most likely mediators are proinflammatory cytokines that are induced by antenatal exposure to infection, postnatal ventilation, and oxygen exposure.

Hypocarbia and Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia

Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1995
GARLAND ET al 1 report in this issue that a retrospective observational analysis of multiple possible risk variables for bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) turned up the association of low Pco 2 values before surfactant treatment with BPD. Intuitively, low Pco 2 values suggest better lung function in the preterm infant and might be expected to indicate a

Definition of Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia

Pediatrics, 1992
To the Editor.— Once again, a study of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), this time assessing the effect of antenatal steroid therapy, has timed the criteria for diagnosis (oxygen requirement and radiographic changes) at 28 postnatal days.1 Unfortunately, oxygen requirement, with or without radiographic changes, at this age, is being ...

Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia: Then and Now

Neonatology, 2012
When bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) was first described in 1967, the use of assisted ventilation in neonates was in its infancy. High concentrations of oxygen were implicated, and BPD was equated with ‘pulmonary oxygen toxicity’. The etiologic role of not only oxygen but also peak inspiratory pressures and the duration of exposure to both was ...

Epidemiology of bronchopulmonary dysplasia

Seminars in Fetal and Neonatal Medicine, 2009
First described more than 40 years ago, bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) remains one of the most serious and vexing challenges in the care of very preterm infants. Affecting approximately one-quarter of infants born
