Drug therapy for the prevention and treatment of bronchopulmonary dysplasia

INTRODUCTION As more infants are surviving at younger gestational ages, bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) remains as a frequent neonatal complication occurring after preterm birth. The multifactorial nature of the disease process makes BPD a challenging condition to treat. While multiple pharmacologic therapies have been investigated over the past two decades, there have been limited advances in...

Comparing the Efficacy of High and Low Doses of Vitamin A in Prevention of Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia

Background Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is one of the most common serious squeal of preterm infants. It involves approximately one quarter of infants with birth weight less than 1500 grams and 30% of less than 1000 grams. Vitamin A has been shown to reduce BPD rate. We compared efficacy of low and high doses of vitamin A for prevention of BPD in very low birth weight preterm infants. Materi...

Perinatal prevention of bronchopulmonary dysplasia.

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), defined as oxygen dependency for at least 28 days after birth, is a common adverse outcome of very premature birth. Affected children require frequent readmissions to hospital in the fi rst 2 years, and although lung growth and remodelling results in progressive improvement in lung function, airflow abnormalities may remain. Indeed, the most severely affected e...

Environmental And Genetic Risk Factors For Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia In Neonates

Lipid intolerance in neonates receiving dexamethasone for bronchopulmonary dysplasia.

BACKGROUND We hypothesized that dexamethasone induces hypertriglyceridemia (triglyceride levels >2.82 mmol/L [250 mg/dL]) and increases free fatty acid (FFA) levels and that steroid-induced hypertriglyceridemia is associated with hyperinsulinemia and elevated FFA levels. OBJECTIVE To study the effect of dexamethasone sodium phosphate on lipid metabolism in neonates receiving intravenous lipid...
