Abstract

In 2017, the Montreux diagnostic criteria for neonatal acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS) were released, which helps to decrease neonatal mortality and morbidity and the incidence of sequelae.However, how to use the diagnostic criteria remains confused for the neonatologists for its ambiguity of definition in clinical risk factors, differentiating from premature respiratory distress syndrome, and relationship between surfactant and neonatal ARDS.In the present review, these issues will be focused to better interpret and use the definition in dealing with neonatal ARDS. Key words: Acute respiratory distress syndrome; Pulmonary surfactant; Infant, newborn; Infant, preterm
