Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia Remains a Significant Challenge in Neonatal Care
Received Date: Apr 02, 2024 / Published Date: Apr 30, 2024
Abstract
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a common respiratory morbidity among premature infants. Nissen fundoplication may be performed on infants with BPD to protect the lungs from gastroesophageal reflux-related aspiration, but the indications and benefits associated with fundoplication are not well-defined. This study evaluated associations of Nissen with clinical outcomes in infants with severe BPD (sBPD), using propensity score matching to minimize bias and confounding. Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is the most common pulmonary complication in preterm infants, where immature lungs are damaged by prolonged oxygen therapy and mechanical ventilation.
