Respiratory distress of newborn - what does this mean

Respiratory distress of newborn is caused by a variety of conditions, including prematurity, infection, aspiration, and congenital malformations. it is characterized by rapid breathing, grunting, nasal flaring, and retractions of the chest wall and abdomen. it is a medical emergency and requires urgent evaluation and treatment.

What happens during the disease - respiratory distress of newborn

Respiratory distress in newborns is caused by an immature respiratory system that is unable to adequately oxygenate the blood. this can be due to immature lungs, insufficient surfactant production, or a blockage in the airway. poor ventilation can lead to hypoxia, which can cause damage to the brain, heart, and other organs. additionally, the baby may have an infection, which can cause inflammation of the airways and decreased oxygenation. treatment typically involves oxygen supplementation, ventilation, and antibiotics if necessary.
