Abstract

Although many studies have sought strategies to prevent BPD, there is relatively little evidence on how best to treat BPD once it is established. The use of inhaled bronchodilators remains controversial: although they are commonly used due to their theoretical benefit of dilating small airways with muscular hypertrophy, it is not clear which babies benefit and how consistent and durable that benefit is. The problem is further compounded by a lack of bedside measurements to easily and objectively assess the degree of their physiologic effect.
