| مستخلص: |
The article identifies respiratory morbidity and risk factors in the EPICure cohort over the first six years of life. It shows that 74 percent of the studied population received supplemental oxygen at 36 weeks postmenstrual age and 36 percent were discharged with supplemental oxygen which continued for a median of 2.5 months. It concludes that extremely preterm children have a continuum of poor respiratory health over the first six years, which is exacerbated by smoking during pregnancy and in the home. |
