  • Title: Chronic lung disease in preterm infants.
    Author: Yu VY.
    Journal: Zhonghua Min Guo Xiao Er Ke Yi Xue Hui Za Zhi; 1993; 34(5):327-42. PubMed ID: 8237351.
    Abstract:
    The increasing significance of chronic lung disease (CLD) in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) is a result of the increased survival of extremely small and preterm infants and a more aggressive management policy for respiratory failure. Many survive with persistent pulmonary dysfunction, the aetiology of which remains poorly understood. CLD consists of several descriptive categories which have a number of clinical features in common.
