Respiratory support strategies in the prevention and treatment of
bronchopulmonary dysplasia
With increased survival of premature infants, bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), has
become the major cause of chronic lung disease in children. It confers signi ficant
morbidity, such as chronic cardiopulmonary insuf ficiency, growth failure and
neurodevelopmental delay, and an increased burden on the health care system and
society. Since its first description by Northway and colleagues in 1967 ( 1), understanding
the pathophysiology has allowed us to develop management techniques that should
mitigate the development of BPD, but despite this the incidence of BPD has not changed
for decades ( 2). As a mainstay therapy for preterm infants with respiratory insuf ficiency,
there have been a series of advancements in the respiratory management of preterm
infants. However, much more needs to be learned about how to apply these therapies to
prevent the development of BPD and/or treat infants with established BPD. With this
realization, we proposed this research topic and gathered a team of neonatal and pediatric
specialists to examine ways to predict, prevent, and manage BPD once developed.
Can we reliably predict the risk of BPD or BPD-
associated pulmonary hypertension?
Given that BPD carries with it signi ficant morbidity in survivors, early recognition allows
the clinician opportunity to council families. Many risk factors for the development of BPD
have been discovered and explored, some more pertinent than others. Some variables such
as small for gestational age (SGA) and birth weight are well known, but they are not the
only contributing factors. It is important to take the larger clinical picture into account
which, given the number of possible variables, is overwhelming at the bedside. To simplify
things for the clinician, Yin et al. provide a predictive model based off seven variables that
can be used to calculate the risk of BPD at day 14 of life ( Yin et al. ). Such models areTYPE Editorial
