“…At the present time there is relatively little information available on the long-term effects of this treatment, though Outerbridge andStern (1972) andStahlman et al (1973), in long-term studies of infants treated by negative pressure ventilation, have shown that the incidence of serious mental and physical handicap is low. Of the 50 ventilated children for whom some follow-up data were available, 6 (120 ) had serious mental or neurological handicap.…”

“…Stahlman et al (1973), in a follow-up of 21 patients surviving after assisted ventilation, found that none had significant developmental delay and that low birthweight was more closely associated with significant damage than artificial ventilation. These studies suggest that artificial ventilation is not associated with a high Received 19 February 1974. incidence of long-term damage, but further detailed studies of older children, particularly of school age, are required if lesser degrees of disability are to be detected.…”

“…Thus it was not possible to assess the impact of each of these factors in isolation on the outcomes tested. Against this background, several different studies have described long term pulmonary findings in children born preterm, including increased incidence of pneumonia and bronchiolitis, 26 frequent re-hospitalizations for respiratory diseases, [27][28][29] chronic and recurrent coughing and wheezing 29,30 bronchial hyperreactivity 29,31,32 and pulmonary function abnormalities, such as increased resistance, a propensity towards air trapping and reduced flow. 29,30,[33][34][35][36] Kitchen et al reported an increase in the risk of rehospitalizations and also in the number of days spent in hospital in premature infants of up to 5 years of age (principally during the first 2 years), with premature infants born with birth weights of less than 1,000 g exhibiting around three times more re-hospitalizations, compared with fullterm children.…”

Objective: The increased survival of preterm infants poses the challenge of dealing with a wide range of chronic pulmonary diseases, including bronchopulmonary dysplasia, Wilson-Mikity syndrome and recurrent wheezing. This article reviews the pulmonary clinical and functional prognosis of preterm newborns in infancy and adolescence.Source of data: MEDLINE search for articles published between 1970 and 2004 that focused on lung growth and function of preterm infants, besides a clinical follow-up of this group.Summary of the findings: Prenatal and postnatal events, such as placental insufficiency, tobacco exposure, infections, oxygen and mechanical ventilation, have an important effect on lung development and can lead to chronic lung diseases, of which bronchopulmonary dysplasia is the most severe complication. However, significant loss of lung function occurs in preterm infants who do not fulfill the criteria for bronchopulmonary dysplasia, and even in those who did not have significant respiratory disease during the neonatal period. The impact of prematurity on the respiratory system of these patients is usually underestimated. Clinically, preterm infants have an increased incidence of pneumonia and bronchiolitis, hospital readmissions due to respiratory diseases, chronic cough and wheezing and bronchial hyperresponsiveness. In adolescence, there is a tendency for normalization of the lung function, but they persist with reduced flows, lower exercise tolerance and bronchial hyperresponsiveness.Conclusions: Prematurity, the events that cause it and the interventions that follow it permanently change the development of the respiratory system. Studies are necessary to clarify the effect of each of these perinatal insults on the development of the respiratory system.
