Respiratory distress syndrome in preterm neonates in the era of precision medicine: A modern critical care-based approach
2021, Pediatrics and NeonatologyCitation Excerpt :RDS was originally indicated as idiopathic respiratory distress syndrome (iRDS) or “hyaline membrane disease” (HMD), based on the histological presence of alveolar layers of fibrin and necrotic cells originally described in the Lancet in 1953.1 It was finally re-named RDS after it was shown to be caused by primary surfactant deficiency.2 The obvious consequence was the discovery and availability of surfactant replacement as a causal therapy.
The Montreux definition of neonatal ARDS: biological and clinical background behind the description of a new entity
2017, The Lancet Respiratory MedicineCitation Excerpt :They characterised ARDS as “dyspnoea, tachypnoea, cyanosis resistant to oxygen therapy, loss of lung compliance, and diffuse alveolar infiltration” and “areas of atelectasis, alveolar oedema, and haemorrhage” at necropsy. The clinical and histological similarities with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) in neonates due to primary surfactant deficiency2,3 were recognised early. Indeed, the “A” in the ARDS acronym stood initially for adult to delineate the two entities.
Outcome of pregnancies with preterm prelabor rupture of membranes before 27 weeks' gestation: A retrospective cohort study
2013, European Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology and Reproductive BiologyCitation Excerpt :Pulmonary hypoplasia was defined as neonatal death within 24 h after birth, due to respiratory failure not attributable to other causes and impossibility of postpartum ventilation, if possible confirmed by histological examination of the lungs. RDS was defined as clinical signs of respiratory distress in prematurely born infants, with impaired oxygenation and characteristic radiologic signs (air bronchograms, ground glass appearance) [16,17]. CLD, (formerly named bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), was defined as infants with oxygen dependency at either 28 days of life or 36 weeks’ gestation [18].
The relationship between leukemoid reaction and perinatal morbidity, mortality, and chorioamnionitis in low birth weight infants
2010, International Journal of Infectious DiseasesCitation Excerpt :Data concerning gestational age, birth weight, gender, Apgar scores, respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), antenatal or postnatal steroid usage, surfactant application, ventilator requirement, BPD, necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), sepsis, intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH), retinopathy, the duration of hospitalization, mortality rate, and laboratory findings of the study and control group were obtained from neonatal charts. RDS was diagnosed according to clinical features of respiratory distress and radiological findings.10 IVH was graded according to Papile classification based on transfontanel ultrasonography findings.11
