Patient's question:
My best friend called me and said that her daughter gave birth to a healthy, white, and chubby baby. However, the baby was diagnosed with pulmonary surfactant deficiency by the hospital doctors, which made her very upset. She has been seeking treatment everywhere. I would like to ask about the treatment options for pulmonary surfactant deficiency in infants.Doctor's answer:
Hello, this parent. Baby pulmonary surfactant disease. Also known as baby respiratory distress syndrome. Mainly caused by a lack of pulmonary surfactant. But as lung development gradually improves. It will gradually recover. So don't worry too much. Surfactant disease can be treated. The main treatment method is to administer hormone drugs. To help their baby mature as soon as possible. The key to prognosis is the effectiveness of later treatment.
