Bronchopulmonary dysplasia originating in the perinatal period - what does this mean

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (bpd) is a chronic lung disease that originates in the perinatal period and is caused by premature birth, mechanical ventilation, and oxygen therapy. it is characterized by a persistent inflammatory response in the lungs and a decrease in the amount of surfactant produced, leading to the development of scar tissue and a decrease in lung function.

What happens during the disease - bronchopulmonary dysplasia originating in the perinatal period

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (bpd) is a chronic lung disease of infancy that is caused by the premature infant's immature lungs being exposed to mechanical ventilation and supplemental oxygen. this leads to decreased lung compliance and increased airway resistance, resulting in alveolar and interstitial inflammation, increased fibrosis, and impaired gas exchange. over time, these changes can lead to pulmonary hypertension, hypoxemia, and recurrent respiratory infections, which can cause further damage to the lungs.

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia originating in the perinatal period - Prevention

The best way to prevent bronchopulmonary dysplasia originating in the perinatal period is to ensure that pregnant women receive adequate prenatal care including proper nutrition, monitoring of fetal growth, and early detection and management of any complications that may arise during the pregnancy. additionally, avoiding smoking during pregnancy can help to reduce the risk of this condition.
