DEFINITION
Displasia Bronkopulmoner is injury to the lungs due to high concentration oxygen therapy and ventilator usage. The disease is more common in premature babies.
CAUSE
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia in infants who received ventilator and high concentration oxygen therapy in the long run. Provision of high concentration oxygen therapy is actually intended to treat respiratory distress syndrome in newborns. The lung injury can be caused by increased pressure in the lungs due to a mechanical ventilator or oxygen poisoning caused by exposure to oxygen in high concentration and long term.
SYMPTOMS
- Breath rapidly
- Bluish skin color
- Shortness of breath
HANDLING
Ventilator is usually necessary to put pressure on the lungs to inflate the lung tissue and provide additional oxygen. If the baby can fit in, then the pressure and oxygen concentration will be reduced gradually. Baby could have died.
In infants who survived, respiratory problems will disappear slowly. However, in the first years, the baby has a higher risk of pneumonia. Prevention To prevent the occurrence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia, respiratory aids should be released as soon as possible or use shortened.
