Introduction Survival from even very premature birth is improving, but long-term respiratory morbidity following neonatal chronic lung disease (bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD)) has not reduced. Affected infants may require supplementary oxygen at home, because they have more hospital admissions particularly due to viral infections and frequent, troublesome respiratory symptoms requiring treatment. Furthermore, adolescents and adults who had BPD have poorer lung function and exercise capacity.
