A number of in vitro studies have shown that the addition of SP-A improves the exogenous surfactant's function in the presence of proteins and other inhibitors substances, like meconium. Objective: To determine the effects of SP-A addition to the porcine surfactant over the pulmonary function, assessed by dynamic compliance, ventilatory pressure and the lung volumes; and over the stress o…
Introduction: Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a disease predominantly affecting premature newborns, potentially impacting up to 45% of infants born before 29 weeks of gestational age. It is associated with high mortality and a significant reduction in quality of life among survivors. The etiopathogenesis of BPD is multifactorial, complicating its diagnosis and representing a substanti…
Very low birth weight preterm infants have associated complications, with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) as a highlight due to its high mortality, economic and social impacts, including a higher risk of complications and comorbidities, compromising the patient's quality of life, both in the period neonatal and long-term. Prenatal and postnatal factors increase the risk of BPD, with the …
Although the child mortality rate has been decreasing worldwide, the neonatal death rate has remained high. In Brazil, according to official statistics from 2013, neonatal mortality was responsible for 69% of the deaths. According to the Brazilian Pediatric Society, from 2005 to 2010, there were 5 to 6 early deaths daily associated with perinatal asphyxia in low-risk newborns (NB), weighi…
Meconium Aspiration Syndrome (MAS) affects newborns that have eliminated meconium due to fetal hypoxia. It can lead to respiratory failure. Despite advances made regarding therapeutics, it is still associated with high mortality rates. Meconium impregnates the lungs and inactivates the pulmonary surfactant, causing atelectasia. MAS also activates inflammatory responses associated with imp…
