Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) in preterm neonates . . . The management and complications of RDS in preterm neonates will be reviewed here The pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, and diagnosis of neonatal RDS, other causes of neonatal respiratory distress, and disorders of perinatal transition are discussed separately
Neonatal Respiratory Distress - PubMed Abstract Respiratory distress is a commonly encountered problem in newborn infants Recognizing an infant with respiratory distress is not difficult, but determining the etiology and initiating proper management can be challenging This review will focus on pulmonary causes of respiratory distress in the late preterm (34-366 7 weeks gestation) through late term (41-416 7 weeks gestation
Respiratory distress syndrome in preterm neonates in the era . . . Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) was recognized to be caused by primary surfactant deficiency almost 70 years ago and continuous positive airway pressure was introduced approximately 50 years ago Since then, there have been many developments in neonatology; we know many things but others are still controversial
The management of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome in . . . In May 2013, a European panel of expert neonatologists published a consensus guideline on the management of respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) in the Journal of Neonatology 1 The aim of the guideline was to provide recommendations based on the most up-to-date evidence in the perinatal management of RDS to maximise survival while minimising potential adverse effects The first edition of the
European Consensus Guidelines on the Management of . . . Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) care pathways evolve slowly as new evidence emerges We report the sixth version of "European Guidelines for the Management of RDS" by a panel of experienced European neonatologists and an expert perinatal obstetrician based on available literature up to end of 20 …
New developments in neonatal respiratory management Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) is the major cause of respiratory failure in preterm infants due to immature lung development and surfactant deficiency Although the concepts and methods of managing respiratory problems in neonates have changed continuously, determining appropriate respiratory treatment with minimal ventilation-induced lung injury and complications is crucially important
Neonatal Respiratory Distress Syndrome - PubMed Excerpt Neonatal respiratory distress syndrome, or RDS, is a common cause of respiratory distress in a newborn, presenting within hours after birth, most often immediately after delivery RDS primarily affects preterm neonates, and infrequently, term infants The incidence of RDS is inversely proportional to the gestational age of the infant, with more severe disease in the smaller and more
