Abstract

Infants born prematurely and infants born with neonatal pulmonary diseases are at risk for long term abnormal lung functions. In this review we will discuss efforts to enhance long term respiratory outcomes in premature infants, including the use of tracheostomy in those with severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). We will further discuss long term respiratory abnormalities in newborns with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH), representing infants with lung hypoplasia.
