However, even large enteral doses of vitamin A from birth fail to increase plasma concentrations of vitamin A or improve outcomes in preterm and/or extremely low birthweigh...
متن کاملRespiratory distress syndrome in the preterm neonate
As in the adult with acute lung injury and acute respiratory distress syndrome, the use of lung-protective ventilation has improved outcomes for neonatal lung diseases. Animal models of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome and congenital diaphragmatic hernia have provided evidence that ‘gentle ventilation’ with low tidal volumes and ‘open-lung’ strategies of using positive end-expiratory pres...
