Abnormal development of the lungs, a condition related to respiratory distress syndrome.<\/p>\n
A chronic lung disease in newborns marked by inflammation of the airways. Infants with respiratory distress syndrome usually require mechanical ventilation to provide enough oxygen for survival and to prevent tissue damage. A ventilator Controls their rate of breathing and amount of oxygen intake. Bronchopulmonary dysplasia occurs when the infant’s lungs and airways are damaged by protracted exposure to oxygen and the pressure of the ventilator. An affected infant may experience shrill wheezing and noisy, rapid, labored breathing. The skin may turn blue from lack of oxygen. The baby may experience lung infections, impeded growth, and problems with feeding.<\/p>\n
An iatrogenic chronic lung disease that develops in premature infants after a period of positive pressure ventilation.<\/p>\n
