Long term cardiorespiratory outcome in children with chronic lung disease of prematurity

Long term cardiorespiratory outcome in children with chronic lung disease of prematurity

The findings of this thesis suggest that children with CLD continue to have airway abnormalities including reversible airway obstruction, air trapping and impaired gas transfer compare to term and preterm controls at 8-12 years of age. Although they had similar exercise capacity to preterm and term...
