Improving early diagnosis of bronchopulmonary dysplasia

Introduction Bronchopulmonary disease (BPD) is associated with long-term neurodevelopmental and cardiorespiratory complications, often requiring significant use of resources.

Our aim was to discuss potential methods for improving early diagnosis in the first week after birth.
