Objectives: To determine the effect of vasopressin therapy on the efficacy of oxygenation and arterial pressure in infants with severe persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn. Conclusions ...

In summary, this case series suggests that low-dose vasopressin infusion may reverse catecholamine resistance systemic hypotension secondary to severe PPHN and improve oxygenation. The mechanism ...

A Dudley mum was left "shocked" after her newborn baby's skin started turning ... Toby was diagnosed with Congenital Lobar Emphysema, a rare lung malformation, just a few days after birth.

Background Effective lung protective ventilation requires reliable, real-time estimation of lung volume at the bedside. Neonatal clinicians lack a readily available imaging tool for this purpose.

We aimed to compare lung volume changes during apnoeas in preterm infants on nHFOV and nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP). Contributors VDG and CMR conceptualised and designed this post ...

The male sex, heart disease, peripheral vascular disease, chronic pulmonary disease and connective tissue disease were risk factors for developing pneumothorax in pneumoconiosis patients. Conclusions ...

This is because the lungs will generally return to normal once the symptoms clear, unlike a related condition called chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in which airways are permanently ...

2, 2023. Mata declined an autopsy. The cause of death was extreme prematurity, severe pulmonary interstitial emphysema and sepsis, according to court documents. An investigator in Corpus Christi ...

This article will review the role of EVs as pathogenic messengers, biomarkers, and potential therapies for neonatal lung diseases. Airway cells are often exposed to microbes, environmental insults ...

Toby was blue-lighted to BCH, where he underwent tests to confirm he had Congenital Lobar Emphysema. Laura recalled: “Toby underwent a neonatal lobectomy, to remove part of his left lung.
